What it's good for
What 10 minutes is good for.
Daily stand-ups
Ten minutes is a good cap for a stand-up of up to eight people: about a minute each, plus a moment for blockers.
A proper break
Long enough to walk away from the screen, get a drink and come back with fresh eyes.
Focus sprints
Pick one small task and work only on that until the chime. Ten minutes is short enough to start even when you don't feel like it.

10 minute timer questions
How do I start a 10 minute timer?
Press Start, or the space bar. The 10 minutes count down in big digits and the time left shows in your browser tab, so you can switch to other work and still see it.
How long should a stand-up meeting take?
Most teams aim for 15 minutes or less, and ten is plenty for up to eight people: what I did, what's next, what's blocking me. If a topic needs more, take it after the stand-up with only the people who need it.
Does the 10 minute timer make a sound?
Yes, a soft two-note chime at zero, made in your browser without any audio files. Turn it off with the bell button. It still chimes on time in a background tab, because the sound is scheduled when you press Start.
Can I show it full screen?
Yes. Press F or the full screen button and the digits fill the screen, big enough for a whole room. Escape takes you back.
Do I need to sign up or install anything?
No. The timer is free and runs in your browser on a laptop, tablet or phone. No account, no email, no download.
