You actually can do that
go to analysis, scroll down and see the part where it looks like code, read the code as you would in English, and choose your timer, (eg. 8 min for 8 minutes no increment, 8 | 1 for that time control you want

The chess.com does not handle timer correctly.
For example, 15s|1s is hyper but 1min is bullet. 1 min is way faster than 15s|1s

Yes you are right and then click 'load'. It works. Thanks a lot brilliant!

8 min is not rapid, even 3+2 more like a rapid then 8 min+0
I agree. 8/0 should not be rapid. 8+1 should be the shortest rapid time control. This 1 sec increment makes a big difference to the game stopping flagging from working as a strategy meaning the game has to be won on the board rather than someones mouse or Internet speed.
Add 8 min to timers. I think 8+1 would be a great time control for many to play in rapid. For those who like 8/0 and 10/0 this would be a great addition it would be good to have a popular no flagging option. So i am requesting to add 8min as an option in timers.
