Time Made Simple

Timing calculations can be surprisingly tricky. Whether you're cooking, running household appliances, or planning your day, knowing exactly when to start to finish at a specific time is essential. Many devices like rice cookers, slow cookers, and washing machines use countdown timers rather than actual clock times, making mental calculations error-prone. Our calculator solves this problem by doing the math for you instantly. Simply enter your target finish time and duration, and we'll tell you exactly when to start.

Using our time calculator is straightforward: 1. Choose Your Mode: Select whether you want to calculate a start time (finish-at), a finish time (start-at), or use duration-only mode starting now. 2. Enter Your Target Time: Use the time picker to select when you want to finish (or start). 3. Set the Duration: Enter how long your task or appliance cycle takes in minutes. Use the quick preset buttons for common durations. 4. Get Your Result: The calculator instantly shows you when to start (or finish), plus a countdown of how much time remains. 5. Copy & Go: Click the copy button to save the result to your clipboard.
