Exit Bell

A timer that plays a sound to get you out of any meeting

Exit Bell launched on June 2, 2026 with 5 votes, #2,466 of 22,647 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches.

What it does

Exit Bell sits in your macOS menubar. Before your next call, pick a timer (2, 5, or 10 min) and a sound - doorbell, dog bark, phone ring, or knock. Hit Arm. When the timer fires, the sound plays out loud on your call. You look up, say "sorry, I have to get that" and you're free. No subscriptions. No account. No App Store. Just a bell in your menubar. ⚠️ First launch: xattr -cr /Applications/ExitBell.app (Standard for any non-App Store Mac app)

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  • Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
