Quick Timer

Fast countdown reminders with an escalating alert: notification, then sound, then a full-screen flash.

Quick Timer — fast countdown reminders that are impossible to miss. Ever set something aside for "just a few minutes" and then completely forget about it? Quick Timer lives in your browser toolbar and reminds you — on time, every time. ⏱️ QUICK WIZARD Start a timer in seconds. Pick a preset (1, 5, 15, 30 minutes, 1 hour) or enter a custom time in seconds, minutes, or hours. Add an optional title so you know exactly what each reminder is for. 🔔 ESCALATING ALERT — SO YOU NEVER MISS IT Quick Timer grabs your attention in three stages, from gentle to impossible to ignore: 1. A quiet desktop notification appears in the corner. 2. If you don't respond, your chosen alarm sound starts and gradually rises in volume. 3. Still nothing? A full-screen flashing window takes over with a bold Stop button. 🎵 SIX BUILT-IN SOUNDS Choose from Melody (a soft polyphonic chord), Doorbell, Bell, Soft Beep, Digital, or Siren. Adjust the volume and snooze duration to your taste. ⌨️ KEYBOARD SHORTCUT Open Quick Timer instantly with Ctrl+Shift+Y — no digging through menus. 🔒 PRIVACY-FIRST Quick Timer collects no data, creates no accounts, and contacts no servers. Everything stays on your device. No tracking, no ads. Great for Pomodoro sessions, cooking, short breaks, rate-limit waits, meetings, and any "remind me in X minutes" moment. Note: Chrome must be running (a background window is fine) for alarms to fire.
