A Timer Without the Distractions
Need to time a task without getting pulled into your phone's ecosystem of notifications? Our Online Timer is a clean, simple tool that does one job well. Set a duration, and it will count down and play an alarm when time is up. It's perfect for focused work sessions (like the Pomodoro Technique), timing a workout, a presentation, or just reminding yourself to take a break. No installation, no complexity.
How It Works
Using the timer is incredibly straightforward:
- Set Duration: Enter the number of minutes for your countdown.
- Start: Click 'Start' to begin. You can pause and resume as needed.
When the timer hits zero, an alarm will sound. Be sure to keep this tab open and your computer's volume on.
