What you see is all there is.
Daniel Kahneman Nobel Prize-winning behavioral economist

If time isn't visible, your brain forgets it exists. The fix isn't willpower; it's making time impossible to miss.

Whether it's deep focus, ADHD, or just working across big screens, when time isn't visible, it stops feeling real.

That's time blindness — and the fix is simple: put time where you're already looking.

Three things, always in sight.

Cursor clock — time and date appear by your mouse pointer

Cursor clock

Have the time and date appear right by your mouse pointer, even in full-screen apps where the menu bar disappears.

Cursor timers — countdown and elapsed timers next to your cursor

Cursor timers

Set one or more timers right next to your cursor. Count down to a deadline or track time as it passes.

Cursor notifications — app icons appear by your mouse pointer

Cursor notifications

Pick the apps you want to monitor. When one sends a notification, its icon appears by your mouse pointer, and disappears when you check on it.

Make it yours.

Customize how the clock and timers look so they fit the way you work.
