What is a 15 Minute Timer?

A 15 minute timer counts down a quarter of an hour — 900 seconds — and sounds an alarm at zero. This one is pre-set to fifteen minutes and starts with a single tap. Fifteen minutes is a popular power-nap length, a manageable chore blitz, and a gentle focus block for hard-to-start tasks. It times accurately in your browser, keeps running in background tabs, and needs no account or install.
