What is Super timer?
Super timer is an intuitive and useful timing tool in the form of a Chrome extension. It allows users to create named timers and works flawlessly even when offline. One of its major benefits is its ability to keep running in the background even when the Google Chrome explorer is closed. Despite being free, it continues to receive improvements with recent updates having made it compatible with current Chrome versions, and additional features like instructional videos included. Future plans include adding confirmation for deleting timers and connectivity with external time tracking services like Basecamp.

Note a timer. A timer is something you set for, say, 15 minutes and alerts you when that time is up. This is a stopwatch.
