Exit Bell
A timer that plays a sound to get you out of any meeting
About Exit Bell
Exit Bell is a simple yet effective macOS menubar app designed for remote workers, meeting participants, and anyone who wants to discreetly exit calls without fuss. By setting a timer of 2, 5, or 10 minutes and selecting from a variety of sounds—like a doorbell, dog bark, phone ring, or knock—users can signal their departure at just the right moment. Once armed, the sound plays aloud when the timer fires, prompting the user to excuse themselves confidently. Its minimalistic design, with no subscriptions, accounts, or App Store requirements, makes it an accessible tool for quick setup and instant use. Exit Bell's straightforward approach emphasizes convenience and privacy, helping professionals manage their meeting time effectively without disruptions or awkward interruptions. Its open-source nature and focus on simplicity make it unique among productivity tools, appealing to those who prefer lightweight, no-fuss solutions in their remote work toolkit.
