A simple, beautiful 10-minute countdown.
A 10 minute timer is perfect for power naps, focused work sprints, a quick game of speed chess, or timing a recipe step. The timer runs in your browser with no signups or ads. It stays accurate even if you switch tabs.
Ten minutes sits in a sweet spot: long enough to finish something real, short enough that starting feels easy. It suits a power nap (sleep researchers put the groggy-free range at roughly 10–20 minutes), a tidy-one-room reset, a vocabulary or flash-card session, or clearing a small batch of email with the door mentally closed. Set the timer, do only that one thing, and stop when the alarm sounds.
If you are using this as a nap timer, pick a gentler alarm sound from the sound menu before you start, and consider fullscreen so the screen stays dark and distraction-free. Because the countdown reads your device’s clock, the remaining time is always correct when you come back — though for the alarm to sound reliably, keep the tab open and the screen unlocked.
