Free online stopwatch with laps

Tickline's stopwatch reads to 1/100 second, supports unlimited laps and works completely offline in your browser. Press the Space bar to start or pause, and L to add a lap. Great for workouts, cooking, board games, timing speakers, or any quick measurement — no download required.

Stopwatch or timer?

Use the stopwatch when you don't know how long something will take and you want to measure it. Use a countdown timer when the length is fixed and you want to be told when it's over. If you're timing an unfamiliar task, run the stopwatch first, then set a countdown to that length next time.

Using laps

Press Lap (or the L key) to record a split without stopping the clock. Laps stay listed until you reset, so you can compare intervals afterwards — useful for running repeats, swim sets, drills, presentations and anything where the pattern between splits matters more than the total.

Keyboard shortcuts

Space starts and pauses, L records a lap, and R resets. Everything runs locally in the browser: nothing is uploaded, and the clock keeps its reading if you switch tabs.
