Floating Timer Firefox

Floating Timer

Toggle a floating countdown timer with a keyboard shortcut.

Features & Capabilities

Floating Timer puts a small countdown on top of whatever you’re looking at — slides, docs, a video call, or a webpage. Show or hide it with a shortcut, drag it where you want, and keep presenting.

HOW TO USE • Press Ctrl+Shift+. (customizable) or click the extension icon to show or hide the timer • Drag the handle to reposition it • Click the time and type M:SS (for example 5:00 or 5:30) to set a duration • Use 2 min, 5 min, or 10 min presets when the timer is idle • Start, pause, and reset from the panel • While the timer is running, the panel stays compact so it doesn’t get in the way

WHEN TIME IS UP — OR YOU NEED MORE • When the countdown finishes, add +1, +2, or +5 minutes and keep going • The same extend buttons appear when the timer is paused • Optional finish sounds: Chime, Bell, Beep, Soft, or Off

WORKS DURING PRESENTATIONS The timer stays visible on top of Google Slides in slideshow mode, so you can keep time without leaving the deck.

SETTINGS Open the extension popup to: • Switch dark or light theme • Choose a finish sound • Change the keyboard shortcut (Firefox: about:addons → the gear menu → Manage Extension Shortcuts) Your default duration is remembered for reset and new tabs.

PRIVACY No accounts, analytics, or tracking. Timer settings stay in your browser. This add-on does not collect or transmit data.

NOTES • The shortcut works when Firefox is focused • The timer cannot appear on about: pages, addons.mozilla.org, or some PDF viewers • After a full page navigation, press the shortcut again — progress for that tab is kept

What’s new (1.0.1) Light and dark themes, 2/5/10 minute presets, +1/+2/+5 extra time when paused or finished, compact controls while running, and selectable finish sounds.

Is Floating Timer Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Floating Timer requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
  • High Allows retrieval of a user’s browsing history, presenting a notable privacy risk.
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Floating Timer is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
