Visual Timer for 8 Minutes

About the Visual Timer

Our free visual countdown timer displays time remaining as a shrinking colored disc. Unlike traditional digital timers that show numbers counting down, the visual timer lets you see at a glance how much time is left without reading anything. The colored area shrinks clockwise, providing an intuitive sense of time passing.
