刻(kizami)

A tray-resident pomodoro timer with a candy-pop look. Focus, break, repeat — it lives in your tray and keeps ticking even with the window closed.

The kizami timer popup — a focus session in progress with colorful progress blocks filling in kizami's clock mode — home and New York time stacked, with preset countdown timer buttons
kizami's mini mode — a slim horizontal bar with the running timer and a pause button

Features

🍅 Classic pomodoro cycle

Focus (25 min) → short break (5 min), four times, then a long break (15 min). Every duration and the number of sessions are configurable.

📌 Lives in your tray

Close the popup any time — the timer keeps running in the background, and desktop notifications tell you when a phase ends.

➖ Mini mode

Shrink the popup to a slim horizontal bar that stays out of the way: just the countdown and a start/stop button.

🕐 Clock mode & world clock

Turn the popup into a desk clock with a second city, scroll to shift both times for meeting planning, and start preset countdown timers right from the clock.

⏰ No drift

The engine is wall-clock based, so hiding the window or putting the machine to sleep never skews the timer.

🌏 Japanese / English

The UI follows your OS language automatically and can be switched in settings.

🎨 Candy-pop look

A warm, rounded design that is identical on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
