This timer counts down 6 minutes (360 seconds) and plays an alarm at zero. It is handy for soft-boiling an egg a bit longer, a short meditation, or a quick workout block. It runs entirely in your browser: nothing is uploaded.
Press Start on this page. The 6 minute timer is already set to 06:00 and sounds an alarm when it reaches zero. Press Pause to stop it and Reset to start over.
Common uses are soft-boiling an egg a bit longer, a short meditation, or a quick workout block.
Usually yes. The timer follows the clock, so it stays accurate in a background tab, and the remaining time shows in the tab title. Keep the page open until it finishes, because it cannot ring after you close it. Some browsers block sound until you have clicked on the page, which pressing Start counts as.
6 minutes are 360 seconds.
