⏱️ Work & Time
Countdown Timer
Countdown Timer supports both fixed durations and exact target datetimes. Use it for short reminders, meetings, deadlines, events, cooking, workouts, or any moment where a clear browser-based countdown helps.
How to use
- Choose Duration mode for hours, minutes, and seconds, or Target mode for a specific date and time.
- Press Start. The remaining time also appears in the browser tab title while running.
- Pause when you need to stop briefly, or Reset to return to the current setting.
- When the countdown reaches zero, the display flashes and the tool plays a short beep when allowed by the browser.
Use cases
- Run a 10-minute reminder before returning to focused work.
- Count down to a meeting, class, livestream, or event opening.
- Track cooking, workouts, study sprints, and timed breaks.
- Watch the remaining time until a project deadline or registration close.

FAQ
- Will the countdown keep running after I close the tab?
- No. This is a simple browser timer, so the active state is not preserved after closing the page.
- Why did I not hear the beep?
- Some browsers block audio until you interact with a page. After pressing Start, the short beep should work in most modern browsers.
- Can target mode count down to tomorrow or later?
- Yes. Choose any future date and time, and the display will include days, hours, minutes, and seconds.
- Does the page title stay changed?
- Only while the timer is running. It is restored after pause, reset, or time-up.
