Multiple Timers — Run Several Timers at Once
Run several independent timers at the same time, each with its own label, duration and colour. Start, pause, reset or delete any timer individually, or use Start All / Pause All / Reset All to control every timer at once. Your configured timers are saved so they are still there next time you visit. Useful for cooking multiple dishes, running classroom stations, timing workout circuits, or juggling several tasks at once.
About multiple timers
Run several independent, named timers at once — each with its own duration, colour and controls — with global Start All / Pause All / Reset All buttons, and the soonest-finishing timer shown in the browser tab title.
A single kitchen timer makes you pick one dish and guess at the rest. Here you add as many timers as you need, each with its own label, duration and colour, and control them one at a time or all together. Your timers are saved for next visit.
Example kitchen setup
| Timer | Length | Why separate |
|---|---|---|
| Rice | 18 min | Needs to rest off heat |
| Sauce | 25 min | Stir checks throughout |
| Oven tray | 35 min | Longest, start first |
| Garlic bread | 8 min | Last in, easy to burn |
When to use it
- Cooking several dishes at once, each on its own timer.

How to use it

FAQ
How many timers can I run at once?
As many as you add — each runs independently with its own start, pause and reset controls.
Are my timers saved if I close the tab?
Yes — the configured timers (label, duration, colour) are saved in your browser and restored next time you visit, though running state resets.
How do I know which timer will finish first?
Whichever running timer has the least time remaining shows its label and countdown in the browser tab title.
Do the timers keep running if I switch tabs?
Yes. They keep counting in the background, and the soonest-finishing timer's label and remaining time appear in the browser tab title so you can check without switching back.
Are my timers saved for next time?
Your configured timers are remembered, so the set you built is still there when you reopen the page. Running and paused timers are kept too, so a refresh mid-countdown does not lose them. Everything stays in your browser.
