Questions
How do I set a 60 minute timer?
It is already set. Press Start and the countdown begins from 1:00:00.
Can I use the 1 hour timer fullscreen?
Yes. Press Fullscreen or the F key to fill the screen with large numbers, which is handy for a classroom or a group.
Does the timer keep working in another tab?
Yes. It measures real clock time, so it stays correct while you use another tab or app. The time left also shows in the tab title. Your browser may mute sound in a background tab on some phones, so keep the screen on for the alarm.

Yes. No sign-up, no install and no limit. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is sent or stored.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. It works in any modern phone browser. While a countdown is running we ask the screen to stay awake where your browser allows it.
