It's a good extension, but it's a copy of an already existing extension
by ch*****, 2025-01-23
top-notch timer/alarm addon.
I've been testing a few different alarm addons, so in case anyone's interested in what it can and can't do, here's what I have from my own testing notes:
Also the "CONS" aren't so much me trying to be critical or saying the addon needs something, more me trying to note what is or is not there for the benefit of other users looking for in-depth detail prior to installing. If I personally decide I need those features, you'll likely see a github ticket + PR.
PROS:
- Open-source under MPL 2 license with a public code repository (linked to directly via homepage link; direct link is https://github.com/Nudin/timer-webext). Also explicitly credits the fork it was based on (excellent job to both authors!)
- No permissions required
- Can add labels when creating new alarms or countdown timers and re-use.
- Easy to create / edit / delete / toggle on or off
- Able to have multiple alarms at once. I created 25 alarms without running into any hard-limits. This only applies to alarms (e.g. Stopwatch and Countdown Timers *do* have limits)
- Able to define Alarm as one-time (default) or have it repeat weekly on one or more specific days of the week (Sun-Sat).
- Has sounds and clicking on a sound button during setup plays preview.
- Alarms can be setup to have a Snooze option or not
- Can choose from Snooze Presets of 5, 10, 20, 30, or 60 minutes.
- Stopwatch has Start -> Stop / Lap -> Resume / Reset
CONS:
- On Firefox Addons page, addon is listed as "Timer" instead of as "LibreTimer". Probably leftover from original project being named "Timer" but might confuse people if they installed multiple timer addons (e.g. for testing).
- For stopwatch, you only get 1 stopwatch counter.
- For countdown timer, you run into a hard-limit of 4 countdown timers.
- Does not allow you to define count-down timers less than 1 minute.
- I love 24-hr time format but if you prefer 12-hr, there's no option for that.
- No Addon Preferences, no Options section.
- No way to export created alarms / settings to local backup file (e.g. json / xml / etc) for easy migrations between machines.
- No way to set volume of alarms independent of system / browser sound levels.
- No way to set custom alarms (e.g. play custom sound file / youtube vid / etc)
- Snooze Interval only allows choosing from specific presets.
- Snooze Interval Presets must be selected when the alarm is created and cannot be selected at the time alarm goes off.
Tested on 2024-04-28 / FF 124.0.1 / addon v0.1.2 (aka May 16, 2020 upload) / Fedora Linux w Cinnamon desktop

Is LibreTimer 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.
LibreTimer does not require any sensitive permissions.
Risk impact analysis details
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.
LibreTimer has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
