Frequently asked questions

Does the timer still run in the background?

Yes. The countdown continues even if you switch to another tab. However, the audio alert depends on your browser's autoplay policy — if you don't hear it, make sure the tab isn't muted.

How long can I set the timer for?

As long as you need — more than enough for any real-world countdown task.

Can I run multiple timers at once?

Only one timer runs at a time, but you can reset and start a new one instantly.
