HappyTimer Extension

HappyTimer is a very simple but powerful timer. It lets you start a timer with just two clicks from any browser tab. When you click on the extension icon in the top menu of the browser it lets you change the sticky sidebar icon, switch on/off an alarm or activate a desktop notification.

WHY?

1. It’s 10:13 am and you have a meeting at 11:00 am. Just start HappyTimer and click on 45 minutes and have a deep and concentrated working session. Via the sound notification HappyTimer will remind you right on time even when your browser is only running in the background

2. You want to open Gmail and do you email? Make sure you don't get lost in this task. Just start HappyTimer and choose any time limit you like. This will prevent you from getting lost in emails.

3. You want to search for a new office chair or tidy up your kanban project management tool. Start HappyTimer and set your time limit.

You will be more efficient than ever. It's for free, so why not give it a trial?

NOTE: Just opening a new tab does not activate the extension's sidebar icon. You need to load any website in the browser. (this is a requirement from the browser)

UPDATE 13.12.2020 :
Starting with version 1.2.1 you can drag and drop the side icon in case there is an element below which you need to click.
