DALLAS–FORT WORTH, TEXAS — The Van Kush Family today launched SoapBox Timer at https://timer.soapbox.community, a free focus timer, stopwatch and countdown in one clean page.
Set a work and break focus cycle, run a plain stopwatch with laps, or count down to zero — with a tab-title countdown, an optional chime and an optional desktop notification when time is up. Everything is 100% client-side, with no external library, no network at runtime, no CDN, no tracker and no account.
It sits in the SoapBox tools suite alongside the habit tracker at https://habits.soapbox.community and the notes scratchpad at https://notes.soapbox.community, all reachable from the tools directory at https://tools.soapbox.community.
SoapBox Timer is reachable from the hub at https://soapbox.community, part of the family’s native-first tool suite.
