Timer that beeps every 3 minutes
Beep every 3 min for 30 min.
What this one is for
A three-minute cue can divide a rehearsal or practice session into equal sections. Ten rounds occupy thirty minutes with no separate rest phases.
This is different from boxing rounds with one-minute rests: the next block starts immediately. Choose the boxing preset when you want work and recovery timed separately, rather than letting an untimed gap shift your session.
Good for
- Three-minute speaking practice
- A planned drill with continuous sections
- Timed group discussion turns
How it runs
Beep every 3 min for 30 min. Press Start, or hit Space. The phase word and icon above the progress bar tell you where you are.
Check the Sound chip and device volume before starting. Work and rest have different tones. The tab title shows the time left. Start begins the first phase immediately; prepare your space first.
Keep the page visible for cues. The timer requests an awake screen, but the browser can refuse it or delay background sound. For offline use, load this exact page online and test a reload without a connection before relying on it.
Change the settings before starting. Work and Rest use seconds on this page. This page opens with its preset each visit; the main timer page remembers your valid settings.
Common questions
I want three-minute rounds with a minute of rest. Where is that?
Use the boxing round timer. It runs 3 minutes on and 1 minute off, with different tones for work and rest. This page has no rest phase at all.
How many rounds should I set?
As many as your session needs. It starts at 10, which is 30 minutes. Change Rounds before you press Start, up to 99.
Does it beep if my phone is locked or the tab is hidden?
A hidden page or locked device may delay or suppress a cue. Keep the timer visible and test your setup. The countdown can recover elapsed time when the page resumes, but a missed cue cannot be delivered on time afterwards.
Can I read it from across the room?
Yes. The digits are the biggest thing on the page and grow with the screen. Space starts and pauses, and Esc asks before it stops.
