Frequently asked questions

How do I set a 15 minute timer?

This page is already set to 15 minutes. Just press Start (or the space bar). To change the time, tap another length or type your own.

Will the timer keep running if I switch tabs?

Yes. The timer counts down from a fixed end time, so it stays accurate in a background tab, and the sound still plays when time is up. The remaining time is also shown in the browser tab title.
