How to use the online timer
Set hours, minutes and seconds, or pick one of the quick timers, and press start. You can pause and resume at any time. When the time is up an alarm sounds and a message appears.
Choose what happens at zero: stop, start over automatically, or keep counting up so you can see how far past the time you are.
Count down to a date

In fullscreen the countdown fills the screen – perfect for presentations, exams, classrooms, meetings and the kitchen.
Frequently asked questions
Does the timer keep running if I close the tab?
The end time is saved in your browser, so the countdown continues correctly when you open the page again. The alarm can only sound while the page is open.
Can the timer repeat automatically?
Yes. Set “At zero” to “Start over” and the timer restarts every time it reaches zero.
How accurate is the timer?
The countdown is calculated from your device’s clock, not by counting ticks, so it stays accurate even if the tab is in the background.
Can I count down to a specific date?
Yes. Choose “To a date”, enter the date and time, and the timer shows the days, hours, minutes and seconds left.
