Ten minutes is the sweet spot for things that are too short for a full focus block but too long to wing it. A walking break between calls, a stretching circuit at the desk, a coffee away from the screen, a power-nap, or the closing minutes of a stand-up that always over-runs — all of them benefit from a clear endpoint instead of a vague "a few minutes". The timer on this page does that job in the browser. Press start, optionally label the timer ("call mom back", "oven preheat", "steam veggies"), and pick how the notification should reach you. Telegram lands a chat message; browser push pings the system tray; email is the catch-all if you are switching devices. The countdown is scheduled server-side, so the notification still fires even if the tab is closed. If ten minutes feels short, the 15 and 25 minute timers cover deeper work. If it feels long, the 5 minute version is one click away. Every timer can be saved as a recurring reminder if a ten-minute break is something you want every day at the same time.

FAQ

How does the 10 minute timer work?
Press Start. The timer counts down from 10:00 and a notification is delivered on the channel you chose — Telegram, browser push, or email. The reminder fires even if you close the tab.
Will the timer keep running if I switch tabs?
Yes. The countdown is scheduled on the server, so it does not depend on the browser tab staying focused or even open.
Can I label the notification?
Yes — type a short label such as "oven preheat" or "call mom back" before pressing Start, and the notification will include that label so you know why you set it.
Do I need an account?
No. Telegram and browser-push channels work for guests once you link them. Email delivery requires a free account so we can address the message to you.
