This timer draws 8 minutes as 20 concentric rings; one empties every 24 seconds, so a glance shows how far along you are without reading a digit. It chimes at zero, keeps counting in a background tab, runs fullscreen, and exports as a free MP4 video. Handy for an eight-minute abs routine, a fully hard-boiled egg, or pacing an easy mile.
Eight minutes is the length of a hard-boiled egg, an easy mile for a fit runner, and, once the rests are counted, the famous seven-minute circuit. Each ring on the dial is twenty-four seconds, so five rings make two minutes and the face divides into quarters cleanly.
Twelve exercises at thirty seconds each with ten-second breaks in between comes to just under eight minutes, and a full eight with a final rest. That makes this dial the honest one for the seven-minute workout. Start it, do the first exercise until the first ring and a bit has gone, rest briefly, and carry on; by the time the face is empty, you have done all twelve. If you would rather be told when to switch, the 45/15 interval page runs eight rounds in exactly eight minutes with a chime at every change.
Eight minutes in boiling water gives a yolk that is set all the way through but still bright, without the grey edge that comes from longer cooking. It is the egg for slicing onto a salad or packing for lunch. Cool it in cold water at the chime so it stops cooking and peels cleanly.
Eight minutes per mile is a common easy pace for regular runners, and a single mile at that pace is a fair warm-up before intervals. Start the dial at the start of a measured mile and check where the chime lands. Slower than eight is fine; the point of an easy mile is that it stays easy.
Core routines built around eight minutes tend to be sixteen moves at thirty seconds, or eight at a minute. On this dial, a minute is two and a half rings, so the thirty-second version switches a little more often than one ring. If you would rather see a chime at each move, run the exercises on the 30 second dial and restart it.
The soft-boiled egg is seven minutes; the classic snooze is nine. An eight-minute video is on the card for anyone who wants a clip, and the whole set is on the timers page.

A radial timer is a free online countdown timer you set in one click: pick a length, press Start, and an alarm sounds at zero. Run several timers at once, take one fullscreen, or pop one out picture-in-picture to float over other apps. Every timer keeps counting in a background tab, and any timer exports as a video. No download, no sign-up.
Its dial draws the countdown as 20 concentric rings, one for each twentieth of the duration. Rings empty one by one, outermost first, so a glance shows how far along you are without reading a digit.
Yes. The countdown follows the clock, so it stays on time while you work in another tab and still chimes at zero. The picture-in-picture popout keeps a small dial in view the whole way.
Yes. Any timer exports as an MP4 or a transparent WebM of the whole countdown, up to 4K and 60 fps, in 16:9, vertical, or square.
Yes. In OBS, add a browser source pointing at radialtimers.com/overlay?t=25m and a transparent dial counts down over your scene. Change t for any length, like 90s or 3h.
As many as you need. Each timer gets its own dial and runs on its own, which suits interval workouts, several dishes on the stove, or a room of activity stations.
