Five real themes. The background adapts to contrast — and to let Glass show through.
01 · Timer

Keeps time.

Pull the grip and the clock folds open into a one-shot countdown. Type a duration, hit start — then it folds back.

Questions

What is McTimey?

A small always-on-top macOS widget that shows the time, and folds open into a one-shot countdown timer plus a five-item notes list. Clock first; everything else stays out of the way.

Is it a Pomodoro app?

No. The timer is a plain one-shot countdown — set any duration you like. No fixed 25/5 cycles.

Does it cost anything?

It's free. macOS 15 (Sequoia) or later.

Where does it live?

It's a menu-bar agent — no Dock icon. The widget floats on every Space, and a stopwatch icon in the menu bar shows/hides it and opens Preferences.
