Chess Clock
Tap your clock after moving. Space switches clocks; pause before changing the time control.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between increment and delay?
Increment adds time after each move and can push your clock above its starting time. Delay only protects the opening seconds of a move and is lost if unused, so your remaining time never grows.
What happens if my time runs out?
You lose on time. Under FIDE rules it is a draw instead when your opponent cannot possibly checkmate you by any legal series of moves.
Does the clock work offline?
Yes. Once the page has loaded it keeps timing without a connection, and it holds the screen awake where the browser permits it.
