    Questions and answers

    What is the longest timer I can set?

    Up to 12 hours. For longer waits, such as the days until an event, use one of the countdown pages instead.

    Can I set seconds, not just minutes?

    Yes. Type any number of seconds in the seconds box, for example 1 minute and 30 seconds for a short interval.

    Will my custom time be there next time?

    Yes. The last length you set is kept in this browser, so the timer opens with it the next time you visit.

    Does the timer work offline?

    Once the page has loaded, the timer runs in your browser without a connection. Keep the tab open until it is done.
