Notion Timer Widgets

A Notion timer widget is a flexible countdown you start on demand — set any duration, pause and resume, and add minutes on the fly, all inside a Notion page. It's the general-purpose sibling of the Pomodoro widget: no fixed work/break pattern, just a clean timer for sprints, meetings, workouts, or cooking. Paste a widget's embed URL into Notion and choose "Create embed" to add one.

How to add a timer widget to Notion

  1. 1

    Copy a timer widget's embed URL

    Pick a style below and click "Copy embed URL" on its page. All styles support arbitrary durations with pause, resume, and add-time controls.

  2. 2

    Create the embed in Notion

    Paste the URL into your page and choose "Create embed". The timer is ready immediately — no configuration required.

  3. 3

    Set a duration and start

    Dial in any interval and press start. You can pause, resume, or extend the timer mid-run, which makes it more flexible than a fixed Pomodoro cycle.

Best for

  • Timeboxing tasks with custom durations that Pomodoro patterns don't fit.
  • Meeting agendas — give each item ten minutes and keep it honest.
  • Any repeating interval: workouts, breathing exercises, laundry.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add a timer to Notion?

Paste a timer widget's embed URL into your Notion page and choose "Create embed". Set a duration and press start — it runs live inside the page.

Timer, Pomodoro, or countdown — which do I need?

Use a timer for on-demand durations you set each time, a Pomodoro widget for structured 25/5 focus cycles, and a countdown widget to target a fixed calendar date like an exam.

Can I add time while the timer is running?

Yes — the timer widgets let you add minutes on the fly without stopping, useful when a meeting item runs over.

Does the timer make a sound when it finishes?

The widgets signal completion visually. Browser embeds can't reliably play audio inside Notion, so keep the page visible for the finish.
