⏱ PIXEL TIMER
& STOPWATCH

WHY USE THIS TOOL?

Most online timers are buried under ads that distract mid-countdown. This one keeps focus where it belongs: the numbers.

The POP OUT button opens a floating mini window — on Chrome and Edge it uses the Document Picture-in-Picture API to stay above every other window, just like a YouTube PiP video.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: Can I keep this timer open while using other apps?

Yes — click POP OUT. On Chrome and Edge this uses the Document Picture-in-Picture API for a true always-on-top floating window. On Firefox and Safari a small standard popup window opens instead.

Q: Is this stopwatch accurate?

Yes. Timing uses Date.now() timestamp deltas, not tick counts, so it stays accurate even when the browser throttles the background tab.

Q: Why isn't the pop-out staying on top?

True always-on-top requires Chrome or Edge (Chromium 116+). On other browsers a regular small popup window opens — position it to a corner.

Q: What is the Pomodoro Technique?

Work for 25-minute blocks separated by 5-minute breaks. The 25 MIN preset sets the timer to exactly one Pomodoro interval.

Q: Does this work without signing up?

Completely. No account, no email, no download. Open and start timing instantly.
