Is there a countdown timer in Android?

Question

I searched for a countdown timer, and I was not able to find it. It should be there in every phone... Is it coming with the standard Clock app?

The Droid X comes with blur which come with an alarm clock and timer. — Alex B, Mar 02 '12 at 04:30
Depends on the manufacturer of the device. But most devices (Android 3.0 and up) have a countdown timer in the clock application — ndsmyter, Dec 27 '12 at 12:44

Until Android 4.2 there is no stock Countdown timer, with Android 4.2 there will be one.

Some alternative Interfaces like Touchwiz (Samsung Devices) have added a Countdown Timer for a long time, but stock Android (AOSP) had this first in 4.2.

There's definitely a built-in stopwatch for Android (HTC) 4. With my old Android 2.3, I used "Stopwatch & Countdown Timer". It seems complex, but it works well.

I have downloaded the free Kitchentimer from googleplay that is available for android 2.1 and up. It has 3 independant timers that can give an alert sound and/or vibrate after the timer has finished.

I have the HTC Amaze, my Android version is 4.0.3. It has a timer built into the clock screen tabs. So it may be dependent on your phone itself, not just the Android version.

There's a timer included in the standard clock since Android 4.2. However, you can't store your timers with that one.
