How it works

  1. Pick a preset, or type your own minutes.
  2. Tap Start. The ring or bar tracks the time.
  3. At zero a signal sounds, plus a notification if you allow one.
  4. Keep the tab open so the sound can play.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from the egg timer?
Only the presets. The egg timer starts at soft-to-hard boiling times; this one covers general cooking. Same engine underneath.
Can I run more than one timer at once?
Not in the browser: this page runs one. The NanoTimer app keeps several saved timers and runs them with voice cues, so you do not have to watch the screen.
Does it keep counting if I switch tabs?
Yes, timing is anchored to a real moment. The tab does need to stay open for the sound.
