Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Will the alarm sound if my browser is minimized?

A: Yes. As long as this browser tab remains open (even if it's in the background), the alarm will sound when the time reaches zero.

Q: Will the timer work if my computer goes to sleep?

A: No. Your computer must remain "awake" for the timer's clock to function. Most operating systems will pause JavaScript timers when they enter sleep mode.

Q: How do I mute the alarm sound?

A: Click the "Off" button (with the bell icon). This will toggle the sound "On" or "Off". The alarm will still flash visually even when muted.
