How to add a stopwatch timer in Notion

You can add a stopwatch timer in Notion to time anything without leaving your page. Press play to start, press it again to pause, and press reset to go back to zero. The time shows minutes, seconds, and hundredths.

Notion data

The stopwatch does not take Notion data.
