There are a few color themes to choose from for the time bar if you prefer a different scheme.

A full-screen setting is available which makes it work like a screensaver. Hourglass has an 'Always on top' option to make the window stick over other program windows. It's handy in case you set a timer a long time ago and forgot about it, or don't have it in view all the time. Hourglass will display a pop-up (in case the window was minimized) when the timer runs out. This right-click context menu has quite a few options that you may find useful.įor example, the Loop Timer option restarts the timer automatically when it runs out which may be useful in certain situations. You can have multiple instances of Hourglass running at the same time just right-click on the interface and select 'New Timer' to create a new window.

It will continue to count the time elapsed since the timer ran out which is sort of useful. Click on the Start button to initiate the timer and it will beep a few times once the timer runs out.
