Full-screen meditation
The screen becomes the timer: dark, silent, and empty of everything except the time that remains. Press Fullscreen when the opening bell sounds.
When you're ready
The timer has ended — 10 min of stillness.

This timer is free and stays free. If it helped, pass it on.
A screen with nothing else on it
Full-screen meditation is exactly what it sounds like: the timer takes the whole display. The browser's tabs, address bar, and bookmarks disappear, the page stays near-black, and one large ringed countdown is the only object left. With nothing else visible there is nothing else to check — no notification badge, no open tab, nothing one glance away.
Press Fullscreen under the timer, or the F key, once your sit begins. When the closing bell sounds, the page leaves full-screen by itself — the screen returns to the world the same way the opening bell sent you out of it.
How to sit full-screen
- Set the duration, bell, and interval options before you start — the controls step aside once you are sitting.
- Press Sit and use the short preparation countdown to find your seat.
- After the opening bell, press Fullscreen or F. The whole screen goes dark except the ring and the remaining time.
- When the closing bell sounds, the page exits full-screen on its own and the session is logged below.
Why the screen goes dark instead of inspiring
Most meditation apps fill the session with sunsets, quotes, and progress rings. This one treats the dark screen as the point: a meditation timer's job is to hold time and get out of the way, so in full-screen mode the digits are dim, the ring is a thin line, and nothing moves except the time going down. On supporting laptops the display is kept awake for the whole sit, so the screen does not dim halfway through a longer session.
Common questions
Does full-screen work on phones?
On Android and desktop browsers, yes — use the Fullscreen button or the F key. iPhones do not let a web page take over the whole display; there the page is already dark and everything except the timer fades away during the sit, which serves the same purpose.
What are the keyboard shortcuts?
Press Space to start or pause, F to enter or leave full-screen, and Escape to end the sitting early. In full-screen, Escape first returns the screen; the sit keeps running until you end it or the bell closes it.
Is full-screen meditation better?
It is the same practice with fewer hooks on screen. If a visible desktop or browser pulls your attention during sits, the dark full screen removes the pull; if it does not, the normal page already fades to almost nothing while you sit.
