Built for short, complete blocks
A 10-minute countdown is a natural “one song / one slide / one pan” limit. If you need Pomodoro’s 25/5 rhythm, jump to the 25 minute timer or the Pomodoro hub after this block.

Ten-minute countdown
Ten minutes on the clock, ready to run
Open this page and the timer is already at 10:00. Start it for a tea steep, a language drill, a short workout set, or a meeting wrap-up. Alerts and fullscreen work the same as the main online timer.
Ten minutes is a common classroom and kitchen length: long enough to do one thing well, short enough that you will actually start. Leave the tab in the background; remaining time stays honest when you come back.
-
01
Start at 10:00
Press Start to run a ten-minute countdown. Use +1 min if the pasta needs a little longer, or queue another length while this one runs.
-
02
Start the countdown
Press Start or Space. Progress updates on a circular dial, and the face shows when the timer ends. Pause anytime, add +1 min, queue another timer, or go fullscreen / sleep for a distraction-free display. The tab title shows remaining time while you work elsewhere.

03
Hear the alert & keep going
When time is up, stop the alarm with one tap. Start the next queued timer, review local history, export CSV, or copy a shareable link. A refresh restores an in-progress countdown on this device.
What you get
- Presets & quick lengths Jump to common seconds, minutes, and hours, or named timers like study and classroom. The Countdown pane still offers weekdays, times of day, and a custom datetime — holiday countdowns are on the Online Countdown tool.
- Background-tab accuracy Countdown uses deadline math so it stays correct when the browser throttles hidden tabs.
- Sounds, notifications & wake lock Choose alert sounds and ring length, get a desktop notification when finished, and keep the screen awake while running.
- Fullscreen & sleep mode Go fullscreen for a large dial display, or sleep to dim the whole page so only the countdown stays visible.
- Up-next queue While a timer is running, tap presets to queue up to three countdowns and start the next when you are ready.
- Embed widget Drop a compact countdown on your site with custom colors, size, skin, and default duration.
Frequently asked questions
Setting the dial, presets, alerts, and embeds — quick answers.
Is the 10 minute timer free?
Yes. It runs in the browser with no account. Sound, fullscreen, and a shareable link are included.
Can I keep a 10 minute timer running in another tab?
Yes. Timing is based on an end deadline, so a throttled background tab still finishes at the right second. The tab title shows time left while it runs.
What if I need 10 minutes and then 5?
Start this 10:00 timer, then tap a 5-minute preset (or open the 5 minute timer page) to queue the next block. When the alarm rings, start the next countdown.
Does refresh cancel my 10 minute countdown?
No. An in-progress or paused timer is restored on this device after refresh. Completed runs stay in local history you can export.
