Online interval and meditation timers
Use Interval to alternate exercise and recovery, Tabata for short workârest rounds, or EMOM to begin a new effort each minute.
For study, Pomodoro separates focused work from breaks. For meditation, periodic gentle beeps mark time without needing to watch the screen. Try a 30-minute session with a beep every 10 minutes.
Common questions
What are meditation interval bells?
They are brief sound cues at regular points during a session. In a 30-minute session, a gentle beep every 10 minutes marks the intervals so you can return attention to your breath.
Can I use the timers offline?
After the first online visit, timers can work offline once the app has been cached by your browser. Clearing site data removes that cache; visit online again before relying on offline use.
Is gointervals free?
Yes. No account, no ads, no premium tier. Your settings stay in your browser, not on a server, and you can clear them from the About page.
Does the timer keep going if my phone screen locks?
The timer works from timestamps, so when you come back it is on the right second. While a session runs it asks the phone to keep the screen on, so it should not lock in the first place. Sound only plays while the page is open.
What are the keyboard shortcuts?
Space starts, pauses and resumes. Esc asks to stop. R asks to reset. They are ignored while you are typing in a field.
