Timer
Apimac Timer is a stopwatch and timer utility for macOS that lets users track elapsed time with start, stop and lap functionality. It is designed for simple time tracking without the overhead of a full project-management tool. Users can set timers, log sessions, and export time data for basic productivity tracking or sports timing. The app runs from the menu bar and aims to be lightweight and always accessible.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionApimac Timer is no longer actively maintained by its developer. The search results show user complaints from recent attempts to use the app, indicating it has not received meaningful updates in several years and appears to have been abandoned. There is no native Apple Silicon build, so the app continues to run under Rosetta 2 on M-series Macs today but will stop working entirely when Apple removes Rosetta in macOS 28 (late 2027). With less than 18 months until the deadline, now is a good time to transition to a maintained alternative. For simple countdown timers, try Super Easy Timer (available on the Mac App Store), which runs natively on Apple Silicon, recognizes natural language input like "20 minutes" or "5pm", and supports keyboard shortcuts for quick adjustments. If you need more sophisticated time tracking—such as logging billable hours or tracking projects—consider alternatives like Timing, Hours, or even Apple's built-in Reminders app for basic time alerts, all of which have native Apple Silicon support and are actively developed.
