Does the timer keep running if I close the tab?

No. The countdown runs in the browser tab only. Closing or navigating away from the tab stops the timer. Keep the tab open in the background instead.

Will I hear the alert if my browser tab is muted or in another window?

The alert sound plays through the browser tab, so it works while the tab is in the background as long as the tab is not muted and the browser is not fully closed. The page title and a flashing display also signal completion.

Can I change the timer to a different duration?

This tool is preset to 10 hours. Adjust the hours, minutes, and seconds fields before starting if you need a custom duration close to 10 hours.

Does resetting the timer stop the alert?

Yes. Clicking "Reset" stops any playing alert sound and returns the display to 10:00:00.

Is any data sent to a server?

No. The countdown, sound, and display all run locally in your browser. Nothing is uploaded or stored remotely.
