About this timer
A meditation timer does two jobs: it holds the boundary so you do not have to check the clock, and it marks time without demanding attention. This page keeps the interface quiet and lets you choose the sounds. Pick five, ten, fifteen, twenty or thirty minutes, or enter your own duration.
Interval bells can ring every one, three or five minutes, and you can turn the start and end bells off independently. The bell schedule is tied to the practice time, so pausing the session also pauses the bells rather than letting them drift ahead. The remaining time is always visible but deliberately secondary to the count.
If you prefer complete silence, switch off the sound; the visual countdown and the browser notification at the end still work. Nothing is tracked, scored or uploaded, which matters for a practice built on paying attention rather than measuring performance. Keep the tab open during the session, use fullscreen to hide everything else, and let the final bell tell you when to stop rather than opening your eyes to check.
How an online timer works here
Every tool follows the same rules: the count is computed from your device clock, the page works without an account, and nothing is sent to a server.
- Pick a preset or enter your own duration. The timer starts in an idle state, so nothing is running until you press start.
- Press start. Remaining time is calculated from an absolute end instant, which keeps the count honest in a background tab or after the device wakes.
- Pause, resume, add a minute or reset whenever plans change. The alarm plays a sound and can send a browser notification if you allow it.
Private by default
Timers, settings and names are stored only in this browser. There is no account, no sync and no server-side history. Clearing site data removes them, and the export tools in other Frixma apps follow the same local-first rule.
