About this 4 minute timer

Four minutes is the whole of a classic Tabata session; use the Round Timer if you want the 20/10 intervals called out. For rounds and intervals with rest, try the Round Timer.

Good for:

  • A Tabata workout: eight rounds of 20 seconds on, 10 off
  • Steeping black tea
  • A short planning or freewriting burst
  • Letting a steak rest after the pan

How it works

The page opens with 4:00 ready in the big view. Press Start (or Space on a keyboard) to begin, and again to pause. When time is up an alarm rings until you press Stop, or +1 min for a little longer. Close the big view for more timers, a stopwatch and countdowns.

It keeps the right time with the tab in the background and after a reload. Phones may pause a page while they're locked, so keep this page open (or turn on Keep screen on in Settings) for an alarm you can't miss. Nothing is uploaded and there's no account.
