4 Minute Timer
What a 4 minute timer is good for
People use this timer for a full Tabata block, a French press coffee and a quick tidy-up. Four minutes is exactly one Tabata block: eight rounds of 20 seconds of work and 10 seconds of rest.
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.
