Set the timer to 131 minutes

How to use the online timer

Tracking a 131 minutes shift with a running timer helps more than watching the clock, especially near the end when every minute seems to slow down. Start it when you clock on, glance over now and then to see where you're at, and leave the tab open in the background while you get on with the job. It won't make the shift shorter, just easier to pace.

Press Start and it gets going immediately, no sign-up screen or settings menu standing in the way. The one thing to remember is that it counts down inside this browser tab, so it needs to stay open rather than closed or replaced by another site if you want an accurate result. A sound plays once the time is up, which is your cue that whatever you were timing is done.

A phone timer works fine until a call comes in or a notification steals the screen at the worst moment. Running it in a browser tab keeps it separate from all that, ticking away quietly in the background of your computer or phone without competing for attention until it's done. There's nothing to install and nothing to sign up for, just a page that does one job well. People type this as set timer 131 minutes or timer for 131 minutes; both land here and start the same count.

Common questions

Will the timer keep running if I close the tab?

No. Closing the tab or the browser stops the countdown, so leave it open until the timer finishes.

Can I use the timer on my phone?

Yes. It works in any mobile browser, though the tab still needs to stay open rather than sitting behind other apps for a reliable count.

Does the timer make a sound when it finishes?

Yes, an alarm plays once it reaches zero, provided your device's volume is turned up and the tab hasn't been muted.

Can I pause the timer partway through?

Yes, pause and resume are both available, so you can stop the count if you're interrupted and pick up again exactly where you left off.
