Our Mission: To Reclaim Your Focus

In a digital world filled with endless distractions, we saw a simple need: a timer that just works. No ads, no confusing features, no data collection. Just a pure, simple tool to help you manage your time and enhance your focus.

**Minutes Timer** was born from this frustration. We were tired of online timers that were slow, cluttered with advertisements, and designed to capture attention rather than help you focus it. We knew there had to be a better way.

Our mission is to provide a beautifully simple, instantly accessible, and completely private timer that empowers people to achieve their goals, one focused minute at a time.

Every decision we make, from the clean design to our commitment to being free forever, is guided by this principle. We're here to be a quiet, reliable partner in your productivity and wellness journey.

Our Guiding Principles

These are the core values that shape our product and our company. They are the promises we make to you, our users.

Radical Simplicity

We believe complexity is the enemy of focus. Our timer is intuitive and easy to use from the very first second. If a feature adds clutter, we don't add it.

Privacy is Paramount

We have zero interest in your data. **Minutes Timer** requires no sign-up and uses no tracking cookies. Your sessions are your business, not ours.

Accessible to All

A great tool should be available to everyone. Our timer is, and always will be, 100% free. We are committed to ensuring it works for users of all abilities.
