How to use the online timer
Tracking a 234 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.
There's no setup beyond pressing Start, and the countdown handles the rest on its own from that point. Since it runs inside the browser, keep the tab open for the timer to keep an accurate count; you can switch to other tabs in the meantime, but closing this one out resets things. When the countdown hits zero, a sound plays so you're not stuck staring at the numbers.
A browser timer beats digging out the one kitchen timer that's always gone missing, and it's one less thing cluttering your phone alongside a dozen apps you barely open. Everything runs here in the tab, so there's no download, no account, and no permissions to grant before you can start it. Free, with no registration, it's ready the moment you load the page and gone the moment you close it. Set a timer for 234 minutes, set the timer to 234 minutes, start a 234 minutes timer — it is the same countdown either way.
Common questions
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.
Can I set a custom time instead of the preset?
Yes, most pages let you adjust the minutes and seconds directly, so you're not limited to the exact length shown in the page title.
Does the timer work without an internet connection?
The page needs to load once, but the countdown itself runs locally in your browser, so a dropped connection partway through won't stop it.
Will the timer still run if my laptop goes to sleep?
No, if the device sleeps or the browser is suspended, the countdown pauses along with it, so keep your screen awake for an accurate result.
