About Very Practical Clock & Notepad

Very Practical Clock & Notepad is a clean, highly customizable digital clock that opens in its own minimal window — plus a genuinely useful multi-tab notepad right next to it. The notepad is more than an afterthought. Because the window stays open beside whatever you're doing and autosaves every keystroke, many people use it as a safe scratchpad for drafting AI chat prompts: write and refine your prompt for ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini here first, switch between drafts with the keyboard, then copy it over when it's ready — no half-finished prompt lost to a stray Enter or Ctrl+C. ⏰ THE CLOCK • Large, easy-to-read digital clock with optional seconds, date, day and year. • Battery percentage display. • Two persistent alarms with a modern time picker and custom sounds. • Screensaver mode that gently moves the clock to prevent burn-in. • Position it in any of seven spots on screen; the window can stay on top… or not. 📝 THE MULTI-TAB NOTEPAD • Multiple notes in tabs — keep quick notes, reminders, snippets or prompt drafts side by side. • Autosaves as you type; your text is still there next time you open it. • Switch tabs instantly with the keyboard while typing (Alt+E / Alt+R, Alt+1–9). • Save selected text or a page URL straight to the notepad from the right-click menu — handy for research. • Export your notes to a .txt file anytime. 🎨 MAKE IT YOURS • Independent fonts, sizes and colors for the time, date, battery and notepad. • Custom background and panel colors, padding and alignment. • Save your look as a Favorite and restore it in one click. 🔒 PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything is stored locally on your device via chrome.storage. No accounts, no tracking, no network requests. MORE FROM THIS DEVELOPER • Google AI Studio - File Reader — converts a Google AI Studio file into an easy-to-read text file. • MD Reader — a simple and fast way to read Markdown files directly in your browser. • Battery Percentage — keep track of your device's battery level right in your toolbar. • Easy Prompting — want just the prompt pad, without the clock, alarms and screensaver? This is the focused, distraction-free version. • NewTab Startpage Organizer Dashboard — organize your new-tab page into a clean productivity dashboard. Use it together with this extension for an extra productivity boost.
