How it works
Simple by design.
- 01Choose 30 seconds or a minute preset, or set a custom duration.
- 02The fuse follows the real remaining fraction as the countdown runs.
- 03Pause or reset safely; the finish burst appears only when time reaches zero.
- 04At zero, the countdown stops and stays completed. Restart it manually when you are ready.
- 05The illustration follows the real timer. Each mode keeps its own duration and running state.
Questions, answered.
When does the bomb finish effect appear?
The fuse shortens with the real remaining-time fraction. The finish burst appears only at zero, not when pausing or resetting; reduced motion keeps the effect still.
Will a countdown restart automatically at zero?
No. A countdown stops at zero and stays completed. To run it again, press Restart yourself; switching pages or refreshing does not start another run.
Will alerts sound if my device sleeps?
Timing catches up from timestamps when the browser resumes. Audio can be delayed or blocked while suspended; keep the page open and the device awake for important alerts.
