TimeTags are reusable QR labels that track elapsed time for anything. Scan once to start a timer. Scan later to see exactly how long it's been. No app, account, battery, or subscription required. That's a lot more intriguing than "labels for leftovers" and opens the door to dozens of use cases that Product Hunt users will immediately start inventing themselves. That's usually a good sign.
Hey Product Hunt!
I'm Josh, the creator of TimeTags.
The idea came from a very simple problem: I was constantly asking myself, "How long has this been here?"
Leftovers in the fridge. Meal prep containers. Frozen food. Storage bins. Opened supplies. Things that needed to be checked, rotated, or replaced.
Most solutions require writing dates, using an app, setting reminders, or buying expensive smart devices.
So I built TimeTags.
Each TimeTag is a reusable QR code. The first scan starts a timer automatically. Future scans show exactly how much time has passed. When you're done, press and hold reset and use it again.
✅ No app
✅ No account
✅ No batteries
✅ No subscription
✅ Works from any phone camera
While many people use TimeTags for food storage, they're really designed for anything where you want to know:
"How long has this been here?"
We're currently in beta and giving away free printable TimeTags to gather feedback and discover new use cases.
I'd love to hear:
👉 What would you use TimeTags for?
Thanks for checking it out, and I'm happy to answer any questions!
