Does the timer keep running if I switch tabs?

Yes. The timer is based on the real clock, so switching tabs or returning after a browser pause shows the correct remaining time. Keep the tab open for the finish sound and notification.

Will it make a sound when it finishes?

Yes. Choose one of five alert sounds before you start. When the timer finishes, the selected sound repeats until you press Stop alert or Reset, and it stops automatically after 3 minutes.

Can I use the timer offline?

Yes, after the page has been cached on your device. Install Clockfresh or revisit once while online, then the timer shell can load without a connection.
