Online Timer
An online timer counts down from a set time and sounds an alarm at zero. Type a value into the Hours, Minutes and Seconds boxes, or press a quick preset such as 5 or 25 minutes, then press Start. The display switches to 25:00 and counts down every second; Pause holds it, Resume continues from where it stopped and Reset returns to the value you set.
Set a duration from zero to exactly 100:00:00 and finish it once.

Troubleshooting
No sound played when the timer reached zero.
The alarm is generated by the Web Audio API, which browsers only allow after you have interacted with the page — pressing Start counts, so that is usually fine. Check that the tab is not muted, that the device volume is up, and that the tab was still open, because the countdown stops with the page.
The timer finished late after I switched to another tab.
The countdown uses a one-second interval inside the page, and browsers slow those down in background tabs to save battery. Keep the timer tab visible, or in its own window, for anything where the exact end moment matters.
Reset did not clear the numbers I typed.
That is deliberate. Reset stops the countdown and returns the display to the length you set, so the same interval can be run again immediately. To time something different, edit the Hours, Minutes and Seconds boxes or press another preset.
