Description
An always-on Pomodoro timer for Anki that only counts time you're actually reviewing.
- Counts while you review; any key press, click, scroll or new card counts as activity.
- Pauses automatically after 45 s of inactivity, so zoning out on a card doesn't inflate your time.
- Resets after 5 min away from reviews, so every session starts fresh.
- Reminds you to take a break after 25 min of real review.
- Break button switches to a break timer; Resume (or revealing a card) starts a new session.
Settings (idle_seconds, reset_after_minutes, pomodoro_minutes, break_minutes) are in Tools > Add-ons > Config.
