Frequently Asked Questions

Can I set multiple timers at once?

Yes, create and run multiple countdown timers simultaneously for different events or deadlines.

Does the timer work in the background?

Yes, the countdown continues even when you switch browser tabs, with notifications when time is up.

Can I share a countdown with others?

The timer runs locally in your browser. For shared countdowns, bookmark the page with your timer settings.

What happens when the countdown reaches zero?

When the countdown reaches zero, the timer stops automatically and displays a "Time's Up!" celebration screen. If you have browser notifications enabled, you will also receive an alert so you don't miss the moment even if you're in another tab.

Does the countdown timer use my local time zone?
