Fob: a free timer for your kitchen, accessible from your dock.
Fob by Leaky Puppy Software is a free dock-based kitchen timer designed for Mac OS X users. It offers the ability to set multiple timers for counting down over specific intervals. When the timer runs out, the application will alert the user in a noticeable way.
Fob is not an alarm clock or stopwatch, so it won't count up or to a specific time. The main feature of Fob is the ability to create presets, which reduces the effort needed to start an alarm. These presets act as time bookmarks for commonly used alarms.
For example, you can create a six-minute preset for brewing tea. You can then choose "Tea" from your preset list, and Fob will start the timer. This eliminates the possibility of forgetting about your tea and ending up with a lukewarm cup in the microwave.
Starting a preset alarm with Fob is simple and requires just one mouse click instead of many clicks and typing. Overall, Fob is a convenient and user-friendly kitchen timer software that will make your kitchen tasks more efficient.
