How to use the online timer
Long drives feel shorter with a target, and setting 62 minutes for the next leg gives you something concrete to aim for between servo stops. Start the timer as you pull away, and treat the finish as a natural point to swap drivers, stretch your legs, or check the map properly instead of glancing at it while you drive. It beats squinting at the GPS every few minutes.
It runs the moment you hit Start, no extra steps needed before the numbers begin moving. Because everything happens inside this browser tab, it needs to remain open while the clock runs; switching tabs is fine, but closing the page or turning off your screen partway through will stop the countdown. A sound marks the finish, so you'll know the moment it's done without having to watch it count down.
Kitchen timers are great until you need one outside the kitchen, and most phone timers sit behind a lock screen and a couple of taps. A browser tab is already open on most devices anyway, so the timer is right there without hunting for an app or a gadget. It's free, needs no registration, and works the same whether you're cooking, exercising, or trying to focus. Set a timer for 62 minutes, set the timer to 62 minutes, start a 62 minutes timer — it is the same countdown either way.
Common questions
Is there a cost to use the timer?
No, it's free to use, with no registration, sign-up, or hidden limit on how many times you can run it.
Can I run more than one timer at once?
Yes, opening the page in separate tabs lets you track a few things at the same time, each counting down independently of the others.
Do I need to install anything to use the timer?
No. It runs straight in your browser, so there's nothing to download and no account to create.
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.
