Many students struggle to finish their final exams on time. This free tool called PaperPacer helps solve that problem!

Hi! 👋
I’m thrilled to share PaperPacer, a tool born out of a real problem: the struggle to manage time during high-stakes exams. Most timers only track the total session, but I found it much more effective to track the pace of every individual question.
I built PaperPacer to help students worldwide master their pacing with a no-distraction, minimal web app that allows you to:
Set specific time limits per question to ensure you stay on track throughout your entire practice session.
Experience real exam pressure with automated alarms that sound the moment a question's time is up.
Analyze your performance with a detailed summary of your speed after you finish.
As an independent developer, I wanted to keep this 100% free with no login required so any student can start practicing instantly. I’m currently bootstrapping this project to help students manage their study time more effectively.
I’d love to hear your feedback! How do you manage your time when practicing for competitive exams or deep work sessions? 📚⏱️
