Frequently Asked Questions

General Questions

Are these tools completely free? Is there a premium version?

Yes, all our tools (MyClockTab, MyTimerTab, MyStopwatchTab, and MyMessageTab) are 100% free with no hidden costs, premium tiers, or subscription fees. We believe in providing useful tools without financial barriers.

Do I need to create an account or register to use the tools?

No registration required! All tools work immediately without signing up. Your settings, themes, and data are stored locally in your browser - we don't require any personal information.

What browsers and devices are supported?

Our tools work on all modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. They're fully responsive and work perfectly on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices. For best performance, we recommend using the latest browser version.

Where is my data stored? Is it secure and private?

All your data (themes, timer history, messages, settings) is stored locally in your browser's storage. Nothing is uploaded to our servers. This means your data never leaves your device, ensuring complete privacy. Clearing your browser data will remove these settings.

Do these tools work offline?

Yes! Once you load the tool in your browser, most features work offline. The initial page load requires internet, but subsequent uses work without connection. Perfect for unreliable internet situations.

Why does the time appear in my browser tab title?

This is a unique feature of our tools! The time displays in the browser tab so you can continue working on other websites while keeping track of your clock, timer, or stopwatch. It's especially useful for productivity and multitasking.

Can I use these tools on multiple devices?

Yes, you can access our tools from any device with a browser. However, since data is stored locally, your settings won't sync between devices. Each device maintains its own independent set of preferences and history.

How do I reset a tool to its default settings?

Each tool has a "Reset" or "Restore Defaults" option in its settings panel. Alternatively, you can clear your browser's site data for our domain, which will restore all tools to their original state.

Tool Comparison & Selection

What's the difference between MyTimerTab and MyStopwatchTab?

MyTimerTab counts down to zero (like a kitchen timer) - you set a duration and it alerts you when time's up. MyStopwatchTab counts up from zero (like a sports timer) - perfect for measuring elapsed time and recording lap times.

Which tool should I use for my specific need?

MyClockTab: Perfect as a permanent clock display, especially for repurposing old devices.
MyTimerTab: Ideal for cooking, workouts, meetings, or any task with a fixed duration.
MyStopwatchTab: Best for timing activities, sports, experiments, or tracking how long tasks take.
MyMessageTab: Great for presentations, classrooms, or displaying messages on large screens.

Can I use themes across different tools?

Yes! We offer universal theme support. A theme you create in MyClockTab can be applied to MyTimerTab, MyStopwatchTab, and MyMessageTab, maintaining visual consistency across all your tools.

I'm a teacher - which tools are best for classroom use?

MyMessageTab is perfect for displaying instructions or agendas. MyTimerTab works well for timed activities and tests. MyClockTab helps keep classroom time visible. Many educators use all three simultaneously on different devices!
