    Tutorial & Guide

    Mastering Multi-Tasking with Multiple Timers

    1

    Name your first timer

    Give it a clear label like 'Rice' or 'Garlic Bread' so you know what it's timing.

    2

    Set the time

    Enter minutes and seconds. For quick access, use common presets if available.

    3

    Start the timer

    Click start and move on to setting up your next timer.

    4

    Add more timers

    Repeat for each dish or task. You can have up to 5 timers running simultaneously.

    5

    Monitor and manage

    Watch the countdowns. When one finishes, the timer will alert you—start your next step!

    Tips & Tricks

    Label timers clearly—'Chicken' is better than 'Timer 1'.

    Set timers for 1-2 minutes less than needed—you can always add time.

    For complex meals, set timers in reverse order (last dish first).

    Keep the browser tab visible—timers only work when the tab is open.

    Common Mistakes to Avoid

    Forgetting that timers only work when the browser tab is active.

    Setting too many timers and losing track of which is which.

    Not accounting for prep time between timer alerts.
