How to use the online timer
A home workout of 60 minutes is enough time to run through a full routine without needing an instructor standing over you calling out the minutes. Start the timer before you get into position, work through your set at your own pace, and let the countdown keep you honest about how long you're actually holding each move. It turns a rough plan into something with a proper start and finish.
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 kitchen timer only works in the kitchen, and a phone timer competes with texts, calls, and every other app fighting for your attention. Keeping the countdown in a browser tab sidesteps both problems: it goes wherever your laptop or phone goes, and it isn't trying to notify you about anything else. Minimise it, work on something else, and it'll be counting when you check back. Set a timer for 60 minutes, set the timer to 60 minutes, start a 60 minutes timer — it is the same countdown either way.
Common questions
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.
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.
