Simple Yet Powerful Organization
Horo uses familiar hashtag syntax for timer organization, making it intuitive for anyone who has used social media.
How It Works
Adding Hashtags
When creating a timer, simply include hashtags:
- "45m #writing" → 45-minute writing timer
- "2h #client-project #design" → 2-hour design session for client project
- "@3pm #meeting #team" → Timer until 3 PM for team meeting
Multiple Tags
Timers can have multiple hashtags:
- Track both project and activity type
- Cross-reference different categories
- Create flexible filtering options
