Frequently Asked Questions
Does the timer keep running when I switch tabs?โพ
Yes. Timer uses system clock (Date.now()), so it's accurate even when the tab isn't active. The alarm still rings when finished. Enable browser notifications to receive alerts when the tab is minimized.
How many timers can run simultaneously?โพ
No technical limit. You can run many parallel timers. Recommended max 5 for comfortable UI.
Why does my phone screen turn off while a timer is running?โพ
Browsers automatically dim the screen for battery savings. This app uses Wake Lock API to prevent that when timers are active. Some older browsers (especially iOS Safari < 16) don't support it โ keep screen active manually.
Will alarm sound work on iOS Safari?โพ
Yes, but the user must tap the screen at least once first (iOS audio policy). The app auto-unlocks audio when you tap the Start button the first time.
Will my timers be lost if I refresh the page?โพ
No. Active and paused timers are stored in browser localStorage and will return after refresh. Timers that should have completed while the tab was inactive will be marked as 'Done' immediately.
