01 — Stay with the work

Stricter timing, when you need it.

Fullscreen focus mode makes rest mandatory, so you no longer skip every recovery period. It blocks virtual desktops and every monitor until your session is done.

Disable cancelling, skipping, or stopping — or enable parent control — when you want a stronger boundary. wnr also reminds you every ten minutes when you drift away.

02 — Make it yours

More room to shape your day.

Users deserve a customizable experience. wnr brings together abundant settings and small, thoughtful functions so your timer fits the way you work.

Install it and discover statistics, mini mode, predefined tasks, and more.
