About this timer

Sixteen minutes usually comes straight off a packet: frozen pizza, oven fries and breaded fish are often labeled somewhere between 14 and 18 minutes. Set it as written, and look a couple of minutes early if your oven runs hot.

Long enough for real work, short enough that you can hold your attention for the whole stretch. Study blocks, cooking stages, meetings with a firm end, and workouts all land here. The timer counts down from the moment you press start, not from when the tab was last visible.
