Set and check a countdown
Enter a duration to count down from it. Without a saved setting, the timer starts with five minutes in the form. The quick presets start a 1, 5, 10 or 25-minute countdown immediately.
How to use it
- Set hours, minutes and seconds, then start; or choose a quick preset to start directly.
- Pause to stop the countdown temporarily, then resume. Reset returns to the configured duration.
- Keep the page open and check the visible completion message. Sound and background notifications depend on browser permissions and availability.
Example
- Starting point
- 0 hours, 1 minute and 30 seconds.
- What to expect
- The configured duration is 00:01:30, or 90 seconds. At completion, the display reaches 00:00:00.
Before you start
- Hours accept 0–99; minutes and seconds accept 0–59. A zero duration cannot start.
- A suspended browser or sleeping device may delay the alert. An ongoing countdown can be restored from local storage, but closing the browser does not guarantee an alert at the deadline.
