15-minute timer
Fifteen minutes is a usual pasta boil and a useful buffer before you need to be out the door. This page starts at fifteen minutes so you can tap Start as soon as the water is on.
The countdown rings only while this tab stays open. Closing the tab or locking the phone stops it.
0:15:00
How to use it
The hours, minutes, and seconds are filled in for fifteen minutes. Click or tap the page once so the browser can play sound, then press Start. The large digits count down from 0:15:00.
Sound only starts after that first click. Closing the tab or locking the screen stops the countdown; it will not ring after that.
Common questions
Why does this page start at fifteen minutes?
It is a preset for a pasta boil or a short wait. You can still change the hours, minutes, and seconds before you press Start.
Will it ring if I close the tab?
No. Closing the tab or locking the screen stops the timer. Leave this tab open if you want to hear it at zero.
Do I have to click before there is sound?
Yes. The browser only allows audio after a tap or click on this page.
