ProgressBar is a Windows taskbar app that shows your day and year progress, so you can make time for what matters. 💬 user review: "ProgressBar really helps me see the day progress, jump out of procrastinating and crack on with important tasks for the day" 😃
Hi ProductHunt folks 👋,
Excited to be here to launch my first product!
ProgressBar is a simple app that sits in your Windows toolbar and tells you how much progress you've made through your day and year.
💬 Why I built it
I made ProgressBar because I needed it. When working long hours as an entrepreneur, I would begin each day by setting out tasks that I'd like to complete by the end of the day. However, I found that I'd finish the day with some tasks not even started, let alone complete. I realised I spent too much time on work that wasn’t no longer useful.
I was inspired by @andreyazimov's ProgressBarOSX [1] as to tool to help me stay on track during the day, but unfortunately it was only available on OSX and I couldn't find anything similar on Windows that I liked the design of.
So I decided to build it myself as a side project!
And as a side benefit I'd also learn some valuable skills in launching a product, marketing it, supporting users and so on 😃
🚀 Features:
- Show/hide progress bar by right-clicking on the Windows taskbar
- Dark mode supported
- Change the time when your day starts and ends by clicking on the bar
- On the roadmap: add dates for custom goals.
Excited for my first launch, and would love to hear what people think! 🙂

I love having ProgressBar on my toolbar.
On multiple occasions it's made me realise how quickly my day is progressing and caused me to reprioritise what I need to get done.
Seeing the clock change is great, but nothing is as visual as this for understanding how far the day has progressed.
