DragTime - Drag your time!

With one simple drag, timers, reminders, and events appear—turning moments into focus and flow.
No setup, no hassle. DragTime connects everything seamlessly, making productivity effortless.
Simple. Powerful. DragTime.


DragTime

Create time with a drag.
Make it yours with Smart Drag

One Drag. Everything.
Just drag from the menu bar. That’s all it takes.

  • A simple drag creates a Timer
  • Hold ⌥ Option and drag for a Reminder
  • Hold ⌃ Control and drag for a Calendar Event

Your intuition is the interface.

With Smart Drag, everything is fully customizable in Settings.
Assign any function to any key combination—choose what feels most natural in your hands.

Drag, Your Way

The same drag can carry different intentions.

  • Timers in seconds, minutes, or hours. Quick tasks in seconds, long projects in hours.
  • Reminders in minutes, hours, or days. Today’s to‑dos in minutes, long‑term plans in days.

The drag style is yours to choose.
Free Mode offers boundless flexibility, while Snap Mode aligns perfectly at 90° for clean precision.

Customize every detail—color, thickness, and style of the drag line. Create a DragTime that feels at home on your Mac.

DragTime

Now, set the time Now, set the time

When you finish the drag, a Timer window appears. Your chosen time is displayed—and can be adjusted anytime.
No need to type a title. A smart, time‑based title is generated automatically.

DragTime

Choose where the window appears: right at the end of your drag, or always centered on your screen.
It adapts to your workflow.
And DragTime remembers what you’ve done, offering thoughtful suggestions every time.

Timer Actions

When the Timer Ends, the Next Begins.
Set what happens automatically when your timer completes.

  • Launch App: Open any app the moment your focus session ends. Start Mail after deep work, or play Music when your break is over.
  • Open URL: Jump straight into your Zoom meeting with a link that opens on cue. Or display your project dashboard as soon as the workday starts.
  • Run Apple Shortcuts: Trigger any Shortcut you’ve created. Control smart home lights, organize files, or send a notification message.

This isn’t a timer that simply rings. It’s a workflow that flows seamlessly into your next action.

On-Device AI On-Device AI

A Timer That Learns You. DragTime integrates with the macOS Foundation Models framework to understand your unique time patterns.
On‑Device AI requires macOS 26.0 or higher.

What it learns:

  • The durations you set — do you prefer 15 minutes, or lean toward 25?
  • The times you create — focus timers in the morning, break timers in the afternoon.
  • The titles you’ve used — Weekly Meeting, Prep for Meeting, Lunch Break.
  • Your accumulated timer history — completion rates, repeat patterns, usage frequency.

AI for Timers
When you create a timer, DragTime suggests the right duration and title.

At 9 AM, it may propose your usual Work Start – 25 minutes.
At 2 PM, it might suggest Deep Focus – 50 minutes.

The more you use it, the smarter and more precise the suggestions become.

AI for Reminders
Reminders work the same way.
DragTime analyzes your set times, reminder schedules, and past usage to recommend the most fitting time and title.

Your Privacy
All learning and processing happens only on your Mac. Powered by the macOS Foundation Models framework, no data is ever sent outside. Your time patterns live solely on your Mac—never uploaded, never shared. With complete on‑device processing, your privacy is fully protected. Your time is yours.
