Could we get a rift timer? I’d really like to know how close I/We get to the Speed Demon Conquest.

stopwatch, good luck with your future speed run tests.
Not necessary in Greater Rifts. But, for Nephalem Rifts… I think that would be an excellent Quality of Life addition.
Edit: (Additional information) — Since the timer starts as soon as you click Accept in the Rift Obelisk, the timer will already be in progress. Depending on how long it takes you to enter the Rift Portal, the timer may start at 00:01 to 00:05 seconds.
Also, this would hopefully put an end to all the “bug” reports that players post about not getting credit for these Objectives.

Great idea. In the mean time, you can use the Windows timer. Might be a little cumbersome if playing on one monitor.
This has been requested since Season was added to the game.
I use an on-screen stopwatch freeware.
Some players use smart phone. Don’t you have a phone?
One player said that he played a 4 minutes music on the phone rather than using a timer app.

Two minute Nephalem Rift with this in the background…

Do they also have music for 6 minutes, 5 minutes and 2 minutes? (Just goofin’. No need to answer that).
Just curious: Which one do you use? (If you don’t mind my asking).
Windows 10 has the inbuilt Alarms & Clock.
I tend to use that as a 20 minute countdown for Boss Mode.

WSplit. (I don’t provide link. As it is a freeware, use it on your own risk.)
Sadly, it is so big and can’t float on top.

Thank you.
I know about Win10’s Alarms & Clocks. And I have a couple of… well… not timers. More like a scheduler (part of a time management program) or appointment setter, which includes a count-up timer. But, they’re clunky to use in this situation and they would get buried by D3. (No Always on top as far as I know).
WSplit: Very cool. No install. Just run executable. Small. Starts and stops with Spacebar by default. Hotkeys can be assigned. Can be set to Always on top.
This will be easy to use for timing Nephalem Rifts. Access the Rift Obelisk. Click Accept with one hand and bump the Spacebar with the other at the same time.
Edit: I just noticed, I typed out the information above and posted it without ever starting the timer. It seems WSplit has to be the focus for the default Spacebar to work. I may have to set a hotkey for it. I’ll play around with it later.
Edit 2: Setting hotkeys works! I set one for Start and one for Stop. Unfortunately “Stop” also resets. I changed it to Pause instead. This stops the timer and retains the time. I then also set a hotkey for Reset. Very, very cool.
I still think Blizzard should add a timer to the Nephalem Rift Progression Bar. (Hint, hint)
