What is the Countdown Timer?
Whether you are managing a strict 15-minute presentation, timing a recipe in the kitchen, or counting down to a product launch, a reliable digital timer is essential. This Countdown Timer provides a large, distraction-free interface. You input the desired hours, minutes, and seconds, and the tool visually tracks the remaining time down to zero. Because privacy and reliability are paramount, this utility utilizes your browser's native `setInterval` functions. It does not ping external servers, ensuring it works flawlessly offline and never tracks what you are timing.
