Would you prefer a sound effect for when the 5-minute count is done?

The reasoning right now is that some people might want longer than a 5 minute break, but still want to keep their eye on how long a break they've taken. We could add a sound effect at the 5 minute mark but keep the count going.

In any case, thanks for your feedback and thanks for trying the app out! I'm glad you found it of value!



A simple color change or font change on the browser tab would do it, though I'm not sure if that's technically possible. Maybe another idea could be a popup when it's done where you can choose how long you want your break?
