MenuTimer is a 1-Click Timer. It's minimal, yet powerful. It does one thing and does it perfectly without any confusing bells and whistles. It stays in your Mac's menu bar and shows you the remaining time there. No extra clutter. You can pick from a variety of default timers. Or you can create your own custom timer. It remembers your custom timers and you can edit them. It remembers your last set timer and you can right-click the menu bar button to Start/Pause. Upon completion, it plays an alarm sound. You can change its volume, mute it, and loop it. You can enter a Shortcuts URL or a web URL to launch when timer starts OR finishes. You can make the timer auto restart upon finish. The app supports the URL scheme "menutimer". For example, a new timer for 180 seconds can be started by calling the URL: menutimer://start?seconds=180 Following url schemes are also supported to pause, resume, stop, and restart the timer: menutimer://start?seconds=180 menutimer://pause menutimer://stop menutimer://restart menutimer://resume You can create keyboard shortcut to start timer using such URLs: Create a new Apple Shortcut and add an Open URL action. Go to Info tab. Turn on “Use as Quick Action”. Set the "receive input" from Quick Action to No and "If there's no input" to Continue. Make sure following are ON: Use as Quick Action, Finder, and Services Menu. At the bottom: turn on “Add Keyboard Shortcut”. Then press the keys you want (e.g. ⌃⌘T). Make sure this keyboard shortcut doesn't conflict with another app. I've been using this personally to remember to stand up and help my lower back recover. Otherwise, it gets sore from sitting all day and affects my workouts. I set a 25 minute timer and start working. After 25 min, I take a short break to stand up, walk around, drink water. Then I right-click the timer to restart for another 25 minutes. I keep doing this until my work gets done. I have the "Loop alarm sound" switched off and have reduced the volume to be subtle. Hope this helps others. Developed by a solo independent developer. Free version allows timers up to 5 minutes. A small one-time only in-app purchase lets you set timers over 5 minutes and set custom timers. It also helps me pay for development costs. There are NO subscriptions, ads, trackers, analytics or other nonsense in my app. This allows me to provide the absolute best user-experience to my users. If you find my app useful, please leave me a positive rating on the App Store as that helps me get the word out to others. Thank you for your support!
