1200 seconds, just for this

Get into the flow.

A twenty-minute timer counts down 1,200 seconds. Use this interval for a reading session, a practice exercise, or a focused block of work. Fullscreen mode keeps the countdown visible during a group activity or presentation.

For a short study session, spend twenty minutes working through one topic. At the end, write down what you understood and what needs another look.

Simple by design

A timer that gets
out of your way.

Choose a quick pick or open Custom duration. Start, pause, or add a minute as you go. Switch to Stopwatch for laps or Pomodoro for a rhythm of focused work and breaks.

How does the alarm work?

With Sound on, a short chime plays at zero. Use Test alarm sound to check your device volume. The timer also shows a completion message and updates the browser tab title. Keep the tab open and your device awake; browser and device settings can delay or block sound.

Can I use a custom duration?

Yes. Enter a duration from one second to 24 hours, then press Apply duration. Pause a running countdown before changing its custom duration. The plus button adds a minute while it runs.

What happens if I switch tabs?

The timer recalculates the time left from its finish time. Your session is saved on this device and restored after a refresh or when you return to the same timer page. After a refresh, test sound to enable the alarm. A closed tab or another mode cannot play this alarm, and a sleeping device may delay it.

Is Minute free to use?

Yes. Every timer is free and works without an account, a download, or a sign-up. Timer sessions and sound preferences are saved in this browser only. Reset a timer to clear its progress, or clear this site’s browser data to remove saved settings.
