40 Minute Timer
What a 40 minute timer is good for
People use this timer for a timed essay, simmering brown rice and a yoga class. Forty minutes is close to a school lesson in many countries and to the cooking time of brown rice.
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.
