A 15 minute timer is used for power naps, Agile standups, focused study sprints, and cooking tasks. It's the standard long break in the Pomodoro Technique (taken after every 4 sessions) and a widely used interval for short, contained work bursts.
Enable Repeat to automatically restart the countdown — perfect for interval training or back-to-back sessions. Enable End Time to see the exact clock time your timer will finish.
