How it works and help
Sounds are made in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere. A running timer is kept only for this tab, so a reload carries on.

Questions people ask

What is a 10 minute timer good for?
A quick tidy, a short meditation, a timed quiz or a break that does not drift. It is set and ready to start.
Can I make it a different length?
