What macOS shows on its own
The Clock app has timers, and Siri can set one, but neither keeps the time left in the menu bar.
How Multimeter shows it
- Start Timer, Pause Timer and Reset Timer are right in the meter’s menu.
- Updates every second while it runs and sleeps the rest of the time.
- Each timer meter has its own time, kept across restarts.
- Faces turn yellow in the last 5 minutes and red in the last minute, and a notification arrives when it finishes.
Set it up
- Choose Add Meter… and pick Timer.
- Set the length in Customize (25 minutes by default).
- Click the meter and choose Start Timer.

Questions
Can I have more than one timer?
Yes. Each timer meter keeps its own time. Put a 25-minute focus timer next to a 5-minute break timer.
