1. Timer settings

Settings stay in page memory. Duration uses monotonic elapsed time, not tick counts. An explicit target follows the device wall clock. Background throttling catches up when this page resumes; device sleep is not an OS-alarm guarantee.

2. Timer

Duration

00:00:00

Ready

Focus the timer region and press Space to start/pause. Inputs and buttons keep their normal keyboard behavior. No automatic sound; this page is not an OS alarm.

How to use this tool

Choose duration or target instant, enter the value, then start. Duration pauses freeze remaining time; instant pauses freeze the display and resume catches up.

When not to use it

Duration uses monotonic time; instant mode follows the device wall clock. At most 366 days. This page is not an OS alarm or a background notification guarantee.
