Set its duration and press Start; add more named timers the same way.

Your timers are remembered, so the ones you use often are ready next time.
Tips & tricks
Cooking usually means several things happening at once. Instead of juggling one timer, set a named timer for each dish — the pasta, the sauce, the thing in the oven — and the kitchen timer keeps track of all of them side by side.
Because each timer is labelled, when an alarm goes off you know immediately what it is for. No more guessing which pot the beep belongs to.
Everything runs in your browser and your named timers are saved on your device, so your usual set of timers is waiting for you the next time you cook.
Frequently asked questions
How many kitchen timers can I run at once?
You can run several named timers at the same time — plenty for a multi-dish meal. Each counts down and alarms independently.
Can I name each timer?
Yes. Naming each timer after its dish means that when an alarm sounds, you know exactly what is ready.
Will the alarm sound if I leave the tab?
Yes. Each timer tracks real elapsed time and uses a background-safe alarm, so it still goes off if you have switched tabs — just make sure your device is not on silent.
Are my timers saved?
Your named timers are stored in your browser so your usual set is ready next time. Nothing is uploaded.
Can each timer have a different sound?
You can pick an alarm sound, making it easier to tell timers apart by ear as well as by their label.
Is the kitchen timer free?
Yes, completely free with no sign-up.
