TimeBoxFX

TimeBoxFX is a simple software application designed in Java, which counts down time. It's wrapped in a stylish interface that features start, stop, pause and resume buttons.

This type of software is handy if you want to monitor your meetings and appointments, as well as track various tasks, such as swimming, running, cooking or working out.

If you encounter errors due to security issues when attempting to launch this tool, you can bypass them by configuring Java settings to add the developer's website to the exception list.

The main window shows an analog clock, where you can click and drag with your mouse to set the countdown time. TimeBoxFX can start the countdown from at most 60 minutes and at least 1 minute. An ticking audio effect can be heard when adjusting the time.

After clicking the play button, it starts the countdown and shows the remaining time in the center of the clock. Once time's up, the tool plays another audio alert that resembles a door bell.

You can pause, resume or stop and reset the timer, switch to fullscreen mode by clicking the button below the close button, as well as access the settings area to allow overdue. In overdue mode, TimeBoxFX starts counting up time after the countdown is finished, highlighting this in red.

System resources consumption was minimal in our tests, so the timer had almost no impact on computer performance.

All things considered, TimeBoxFX offers an elegant clock for helping you count down time, featuring support for fullscreen mode and a feature for allowing and counting overdue time. It's free and can be easily used by anyone, even those without previous experience in timing software.
