2 Hour Timer
Set for 2 hours. Press start — it rings when the time is up.
Free from Ticka — the reminder app that rings like an alarm, even on silent. Close this tab and the timer stops. On your phone, Ticka rings even on silent. App Store → Google Play → App Store → Google Play →
This timer runs while the tab is open. If you need it to go off when your phone is in your pocket — that part needs the app.
The two-hour rule for food
Food-safety agencies such as the USDA give one number for perishable food left out at room temperature: two hours. After that, bacteria can multiply to unsafe levels, and the food should be thrown away rather than put back in the fridge. In heat above 32 °C (90 °F) the limit drops to one hour.
The rule is easy to agree with and hard to follow, because nobody notices the moment the buffet was set out. By the time anyone asks how long the salad has been sitting there, the honest answer is “a while”.
Start a two-hour timer when the food goes on the table. When it rings, the decision is already made for you.
If you won’t be near this tab for two hours, set a reminder on your phone instead — it goes into the phone’s calendar in one tap.
