Countdown with background music

Timer with Music

Pick a time and a music style and the countdown runs with gentle background music until a soft alarm ends it. Or choose a song from your device: the timer lasts exactly as long as the song.

How the timer with music works

  1. Choose how long the timer should run, from 1 to 60 minutes or any time you like.
  2. Pick a music style: Calm piano chords, Lo-fi focus with a soft beat, Happy for tidy up time, or Rain noise.
  3. Press Start. The music fades in, the countdown runs, and at zero the music fades out and a soft bell rings.

The music is generated live in your browser, so it never runs out, never repeats an ad and needs no download.

Use your own song as a timer

Switch to My own song and choose an audio file from your phone or computer. The timer takes the length of the song: a 3:45 song gives a 3 minute 45 second countdown that ends with the last note. Perfect for a tidy up song, a workout track or a game round. The file is played only in your browser and is never uploaded to our server.

Music tells a class how much time is left without anybody looking at the clock. Many teachers use a calm style for independent work and the happy style for clean up time. Show the timer in fullscreen on the board: the big digits and the progress bar make the time visible for everybody. Without music, the visual timer and the sand timer work well too.

Frequently asked questions

Is the music copyright free?

Yes. The built-in music is generated by our own code in your browser while the timer runs, so you can use it in class, in videos and in streams.

Is my own song uploaded?

No. The song is opened and played only in your browser. It never leaves your device and nothing is stored on our server.
