About Clockfresh time tools

Clockfresh is a small suite of online time tools: timer, alarm clock, stopwatch, countdown, and clock. The product goal is simple: make the tools fast enough to open instantly, calm enough to leave on screen, and reliable enough for everyday use.

What makes it different

The tools use real clock time instead of counting interval ticks, so a backgrounded tab or a delayed animation frame does not make the timer drift. The interactive parts are small Astro islands on static pages, which keeps the site light and easy to cache.

Clockfresh is also built as an installable web app. After a first visit, the core tools can open offline. Alarms and timers use browser notifications and wake lock where the platform allows it, while clearly documenting the web limit: a fully closed tab cannot fire later. Finish alerts ring until dismissed on the alarm and timer; every tool has a Repeat setting (once, 3 times, or until stopped) remembered in your browser.

Privacy and launch constraints

There are no accounts, no login wall, and no personal profiles, and the site is ad-free. We use Google Analytics for aggregate usage measurement only (no ads, no advertising profiles); in the EU, UK and Switzerland it loads only after you allow it in the consent banner. See the privacy page for what's measured and how to opt out.

Current tool set

• Timer counts down a duration you set (5 minutes, 1 hour) — presets, custom lengths, fullscreen, and five finish sounds.
• Alarm clock for fixed time-of-day reminders with snooze and selectable sounds.
• Stopwatch for laps, splits, fullscreen mode, and CSV export.
• Countdown counts to a specific date and time (a launch, an exam) — evergreen event pages and persistent finish alerts.
• Clock for a clean digital clock with 12/24-hour mode.
• Chess clock for alternating two-player time with Fischer increment, fullscreen and large touch controls.

Questions

Is Clockfresh free?

Yes. Clockfresh is free to use, has no sign-up, and does not show ads during the launch period.

Do the tools work offline?

Yes. The core tool pages are cached by the service worker after your first visit, so they can load again without a network connection.

Does Clockfresh track personal accounts?

No. There are no accounts, profiles, or server-side user data. We use Google Analytics for aggregate usage only — no ads and no advertising profiles — and in the EU, UK and Switzerland it loads only after you consent in the banner. See the privacy page for details and opt-out.

Can a browser alarm ring after I close the tab?

Clockfresh cannot run an alarm after its browser tab is fully closed. Clockfresh is designed for open or installed web-app use, with notifications and wake lock where browsers allow them.

Can I choose the alert sound?

Yes. Timer, alarm, countdown, Pomodoro, interval, visual, multi, and stage timers share five selectable alert sounds with preview.
