Quick Timer

Timers that stay out of your way.

Click the bell in the menu bar, name a timer, pick a duration and a sound, hit Start. The soonest countdown ticks down right up there, so you always know what's next.

A look at it.

Just timers.

As many as you want

Run Tea, Standup and Pasta at once. Each gets its own row with pause, resume and cancel.

Type it naturally

5pm, 45m, in 3h, or 25:00. Quick Timer figures out what you meant.

Save it once, reuse forever

Bookmark a timer and it lands in your saved list. One click and it runs again.

Rename on the fly

Rename a running timer whenever you want. The countdown keeps ticking. Renaming is just text, not a restart.

Pause without losing your place

One click pauses a timer in place. Resume whenever, no restart, no math.

Each timer picks its own sound

Every timer has its own alarm. Something subtle for a Pomodoro, a loud one for the pasta water.

You won't miss one

Your chosen system sound loops and a notification stays up until you dismiss it.

No dock icon, no windows

Quick Timer lives in the menu bar. Nothing to arrange, nothing to close.

No accounts, no cloud

Nothing leaves your Mac. There is no sign-in, because there is nothing to sign in to.

Runs entirely on your Mac, quiet in the menu bar until you need it.
