About the Online Stopwatch and Timer
Lap timing is what separates a stopwatch from a clock — recording splits without stopping the count is the whole point for training sets, cooking stages and timed practice. The timing is driven by the system clock rather than a counting loop, so it stays accurate even if the tab is backgrounded. Keep the tab open for the countdown alert to sound.
Frequently asked questions
Can I record lap times?
Yes, laps are recorded without stopping the running count.
Will the timer keep running in a background tab?
Timing stays accurate because it is based on the system clock, but leave the tab open for the alert to sound.
Do I need to install anything?
No. It runs in the browser on phone and desktop.
