UNTIL Timer is a simple way to manage your focus with a finish time. Instead of setting β€œ30 minutes” or β€œ60 minutes,” choose the clock time you want to reach. UNTIL turns that time into a small, visible deadline and shows you exactly how much time is left. A FINISH TIME FOR BETTER FOCUS When a task has no clear edge, attention can drift. UNTIL gives what you are doing now a finish line. Not a complicated schedule. Not another productivity system. Just a clear β€œuntil.” SET A TIME. FOCUS ON NOW. Use UNTIL for: β€’ Finishing a focused work session β€’ Getting ready to leave β€’ Study and homework β€’ Creative work β€’ Chores and household routines β€’ Breaks and transitions β€’ Any task that needs a clear finish line SMALL DEADLINES, THROUGHOUT YOUR DAY The real deadline may be tomorrow, next week, or months away. UNTIL lets you create smaller deadlines inside today. β€œI’ll work on this until 10:30.” β€œI’ll get ready until 8:15.” β€œI’ll finish this part by 3:00.” A small finish line can make it easier to give your attention to what matters now. SIMPLE BY DESIGN β€’ Set an end time instead of calculating a duration β€’ See remaining time at a glance β€’ Get an alarm or notification when time is up β€’ Keep the countdown visible when you want it β€’ Save timers you use again UNTIL PRO Get more from every countdown with UNTIL PRO.
