Two minutes, four quarters

Dental groups commonly recommend brushing for two minutes, twice a day. Split it into four quarters, top left, top right, bottom left and bottom right, about 30 seconds each, and watch the ring move a quarter of the way round for each one.

For other short routines, use the visual timer for kids or the 2 minute timer.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a 30 second signal?

Not yet. Watch the ring: each quarter of the way round is 30 seconds.

Will it work if my screen locks or I close the tab?

Only while the page is open. The countdown keeps time from your device clock in a background tab, but phones and laptops can pause or silence web pages when they sleep, lock or close the tab. For anything that really matters, also set your device's own alarm.
