i try to many timers app. But almost nothing satisfies me. I'm very picky. but this is eazy ,This special place is , you will focus on arrows,Focusing on numbers can make people anxious, But this is not enough,I think the perfect app,Turn the change of time into a simple and interesting animation to show,Because looking at numbers for a long time is really anxious

I've been looking for a lab multi-timer to track experiment runs (range from 5 min - 2 hrs). This is the best one I found so far, works quite well.

Some hidden functions (learnt from the GitHub):
Directly input minutes by typing numbers, edit by delete or esc keys; floating on top under the "Window" menu.

Some suggestions:
1. Save timers for later use after program quits (very important).
2. Being able to edit "title" for each timer, so multiple timers can be easily distinguished.
3. Stick multiple timers side by side, so it's easier to view them in one place (not important - can use app expose).
