Free online timer

1 minute timer
No sign-up. No ads.

Sixty seconds, with a sound at the end. Nothing to install and nothing to sign up for.

1 minute remaining of 1 minute

Keeps time in a background tab. Works on a phone. Share one countdown with a room if more than one person needs it.

1 minute

Why one minutes.

A minute is the length of a plank, a rest between sets, a mouthful of mouthwash and the pause you take before answering something you are annoyed about. It is too short to check on, which is exactly why it needs an alarm.

✦ What it is for

What people set a 1 minute timer for.

Rest between sets

A minute of rest is the standard for hypertrophy work. Counting it yourself always turns into forty seconds.

Planks and holds

The last fifteen seconds of a plank feel like a minute on their own. Let something else keep score.

Brushing and rinsing

Thirty seconds a quadrant, or a minute of mouthwash. Dentists have been asking for this for years.

A pause before you reply

One minute between reading something and answering it changes what you write.

✦ How to

How to set a 1 minute timer.

1

Open this page

It is already set to one minutes, so there is nothing to type and nothing to choose. The timer is the first thing on the page.

2

Press start

The countdown begins immediately and the ring starts emptying. The tab title counts down too, so you can watch it from another tab.

3

Leave it running

Switch tabs, lock the phone, let the laptop sleep. It is counting to a fixed end time, not adding up ticks, so it stays correct.

4

Get the alarm at zero

A chime repeats until you stop it, and a browser notification arrives if you allowed one. Reset restarts the 1 minute timer, or switch to another length in one click.

✦ The timer itself

Built to be trusted, not just to tick.

Most free timers are an interval and a beep. Under a background tab, an interval is the first thing a browser throttles.

Accurate in a background tab

It counts to a real end time rather than adding up ticks, so a hidden tab, a locked phone or a sleeping laptop cannot make it drift. Come back and it already shows the right number.

A visual countdown

The ring empties as the time goes, which reads from across a room and suits anyone who does not carry an accurate sense of elapsed time. Full screen turns it into a wall clock.

An alarm that repeats

A chime at zero, repeated rather than sounded once, plus a browser notification if you allow one. Mute is a single click, and the tab title counts down either way.

No account, no ads, no tracking wall

Nothing here is gated. There is no interstitial before the timer starts and no video playing next to it.

Keeps the screen awake

While it runs it asks the browser not to dim the display, so a phone propped on a counter still shows the time left.

Adjustable mid-run

Add a minute or five without restarting, pause and resume where you left off, or switch to another length in one click.

✦ Other lengths

Need a different timer?

✦ More than one person

Timing a room, not just yourself?

Create a countdown, send the link, and every browser that opens it ends on the same second — with a pause that stops the whole room. Still no account, still nothing to install.

✦ After the alarm

A timer tells you when to stop.
It cannot tell you what it was for.

This page will still be here tomorrow, free, and for a lot of people that is the whole relationship. But a countdown is only the last five minutes of a decision that started somewhere else, and the useful question is not how long you sat down for. It is whether the sitting down added up to anything.

EvyOS is where that part lives. The same timer, attached to a real task, a habit you are keeping or a skill you are logging hours against, so a 1 minute session becomes a record instead of a moment. Goals hold projects, projects hold tasks, and the practice you put in is counted rather than remembered.

Questions

1 minute timer, answered.

Yes. The countdown is based on a real end time rather than a tick count, so switching tabs, locking the phone or letting the laptop sleep does not slow it down. It shows the right number the moment you come back, and the alarm still fires.
Yes, a repeating chime plays at zero. You can mute it before you start if you would rather have the page flash the title instead.
No. The timer is free, needs no sign-in and stores nothing about you. An EvyOS account only matters if you want the sessions to count toward a task or a skill.

The 1 minute is the easy part.
Keeping the habit is not.

EvyOS holds the goals, projects, tasks, habits and skills the timer is in service of, and counts the sessions you actually did.
