Countdown Timer
Count down to a duration or a target time.
Use this countdown timer online to count down from a set amount of time to zero. Enter the minutes or hours you need, start the timer, and watch the time left. It suits many everyday jobs: timing a study session, a workout interval, a cooking step, a presentation, an exam practice paper or a short break from work. If you search for a countdown timer for pc, a full screen countdown timer or a countdown timer app, this gives you a quick option that needs no download and no installation. The tool is free and runs entirely in your browser, so there is nothing to sign up for and no data is sent anywhere. It also works offline once the page has loaded. Keep the tab open while the timer runs, since browsers can slow down timers in background tabs on some devices, and check your device volume if you rely on a sound alert.
