About

Timer app with seamless integration accomplished by pretending to be a media player. Ultimately, serves the only purpose — to start a timer quickly and efficiently. Notifications included!

Play Timer aims to be as keyboard friendly as possible. Use navigation keys (arrows, tab, shift+tab, space, enter) or start inputting numbers right away.

The app is CLI-friendly, try `flatpak run io.github.efogdev.mpris-timer -help`!
