the idea

Most timers are built around finishing. This one is built around starting.

Open it. Tap once. The timer counts up from zero — no goal, no streak. You stop whenever it feels right, even after thirty seconds.

That counts.

how it works

Three taps, no plan.

Tap to begin
Tap to begin — however small.
02
The session counts up
The timer counts up. A quiet line says you're doing it.
03
You finished
Stop whenever. You started — that's the whole game.
