One timer for whatever length you need
The page opens set to five minutes. Change the hours, minutes and seconds boxes to any length you like, or tap one of the presets: 1, 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 minutes. Press Start and the countdown begins. Press the same button to pause, and Reset puts the original length back.
Pick this page when your length is not one of the common ones, such as 17 minutes for a bake, 90 minutes for an exam paper or 45 seconds for a speaking round. If you always use the same length, a fixed page such as the 15 minute timer saves you typing.
Choose from four sounds: soft bell, chime, digital beep and rising tone. Full screen turns the display into one large clock that is easy to read from across a room. Copy link stores the length you typed in the address, so you can send the exact setup to a colleague or open it on another device.
Questions about this timer
What is the longest time I can set?
The boxes accept hours, so you can set a full working day or more. For very long waits, keep the page open and the device awake.
Can I send someone my timer settings?
Yes. Press Copy link and paste it into a message. The link carries the time you typed, so the other person opens the same length.
Do I need to install anything or make an account?
No. It runs in the browser on a phone, tablet or computer, and nothing you type is sent to a server.
Will it still ring if I switch to another app?
It tracks your device clock, so the remaining time is correct when you come back. Whether sound plays with the screen locked depends on the phone, so try it once first.
