Our Philosophy
A timer should get out of your way. Polytimer loads instantly, works on any device, and never interrupts you with ads or sign-up prompts. Every feature is free, and that will not change.
Privacy First
Polytimer does not collect personal data, create user accounts, or track your usage beyond basic,
anonymous analytics. Your timer settings are saved locally in your browser via localStorage
and never leave your device. Read our Privacy Policy for full details.
