FAQs

How do I start the 20 minutes timer?

The 20 minutes duration is loaded automatically. Press the big start button or hit the spacebar to begin.

Can I hear an alarm when it finishes?

Yes. Open settings (the gear icon) to pick a sound, adjust volume, and set repeat behavior for the alarm.

What can you actually do in one minute?

More than you think: brush your teeth, do 15 pushups, take 6 deep breaths, or skim a page. A one-minute timer is about focus, not duration.

How accurate is a one-minute countdown?

The timer counts milliseconds. For a one-minute count, it’s within a fraction of a second — accurate enough for any micro-task.
