This is an universal, powerful and beautiful reminder program that combines a countdown timer, a highly customizable alarm clock, a monthly calendar, a nice notepad and runs many scheduled tasks. It can show an elegant text message (its text can be picked from text files which may include proverbs, jokes, quotations etc), play an audio file or a voice message, show a picture or a video clip, shut down or reboot a PC, start a screen saver, dial up a phone number, run a Windows application, open a document, folder or a Web link!
This program can be used as a personal planner, a birthday reminder, a shutdown timer, an interval timer, a custom text viewer, calendar, and more. A pleasant feature of
SNV Timer is that its trigger time can be set by turning the minute/ hour hand on the clock face.
The scheduled tasks can run at specific times (e.g. daily, specific days of the week, monthly, yearly) or at regular intervals (e.g. seconds, minutes, hours, days). The missed tasks may be assigned to run at Windows startup.
A wide variety of means are available to modify the view of
SNV Timer and its additional Calendar and Notepad applications. The background picture, color, speed of fading in/out, size and other properties may be set in most of the
SNV Timer windows, message boxes and tool tips. The Main window title, shadow color, tray icon, clock face color, border, start-up sound and much more can be modified also.
An important feature of
SNV Timer is that its multiple instances can be opened as separate fully customizable windows - each with different tasks. For example, a timer can be created for personal exercise sessions which play sports music. Also, an alarm for a dinner break can be set up which shows food pictures, etc. Each instance can be started hidden, normal, or minimized to a tray icon.
So in fact, alarms, clocks, timers, monthly calendars and text viewers that are fully (almost) customizable to your tastes can be created with
SNV Timer!
