A simple countdown timer with presets, a big display and a sound when time is up.
05:00
A simple, reliable timer
Pick a preset or type hours, minutes and seconds, then press Start (or the space bar). The remaining time is also shown in the browser tab, so you can keep working in another tab. When the time is up a chime plays until you stop it. Popular uses: the 25-minute Pomodoro technique, cooking, workouts, exams and presentations.
Frequently asked questions
Does the timer keep running in a background tab?
Yes. The timer is based on the clock, not on counting ticks, so it stays accurate in a background tab and the alarm still sounds.
