What countdown timer presets are available?

The countdown timer includes 6 preset durations: 1 minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes. You can also set a fully custom time by entering hours, minutes, and seconds manually. When the countdown reaches zero, a pleasant ascending chime plays to alert you.

How do I set a custom countdown time?

Use the hour, minute, and second input fields below the presets. Enter any values (e.g., 0 hours, 10 minutes, 30 seconds) and click Set. Press Start or hit Space to begin the countdown. You can pause and resume anytime.

Does the countdown play a sound when time is up?

Yes! When the countdown reaches zero, it plays three ascending musical tones. You can toggle the alert sound on or off using the bell icon button next to the controls. For ambient background sounds, try the sound mixer.
