What a 10 second timer is good for

People use this timer for a quick rest between reps, a speed round in a quiz and a countdown on a live stream. Ten seconds goes fast: turn on the screen flash so you catch the end even when you are not looking.

How it works

Under the digits you see the clock time when the timer ends. Need a little longer? Tap +1 min while it runs. Switch between numbers, a progress ring, a visual disc and a sand timer.

Space starts and pauses, R resets and F opens fullscreen. The screen stays on, and the timer follows the real clock, so it stays accurate when the tab is in the background.

Questions

How do I set a 10 second timer?

Press Start on this page: the timer is already set to 10 seconds. To change it, tap the digits or pick another preset.

Is there a 10 second timer with sound?

Yes. Pick one of several alarm sounds and a volume, and turn on repeat until stopped so you do not miss it.

Will it ring in a background tab?

Yes. The countdown follows the system clock and the alarm rings even if you switch tabs. Keep the tab open.

Can I repeat it for intervals?

For repeated work and rest, the interval timer runs the rounds for you with voice cues.
