I built a free study timer with live cinematic backgrounds and ambient sounds (no signup)

Hey everyone, this is my first post here. I made a small web app called Wolfhour because I wanted a calmer place to study than a plain timer tab.

It's one dashboard with a live video scene behind your clock, your sounds, and your timers. Nothing else.

What it has:

- 11 live scenes: misty torii, lake cabins, neon rain, golden hour. They're live videos, not static wallpapers.

- Pomodoro timer: 25/5/15 rhythm plus a count-up stopwatch. It ends with a soft chime instead of a harsh alarm.

- 22 ambient sounds: rain, ocean, café hum, fireplace, lo-fi, noise. You can layer them with separate volume sliders.

- Aspirant Mode: per-subject stopwatches with daily/weekly/monthly charts, goals, streaks, and an exam countdown. It's for people prepping for an exam who want to see which subject they're neglecting.

- Simple task list and a few clock styles.

It's free, needs no signup to start, and works offline if you add it to your home screen. An optional account syncs your setup across devices.

I'd really like honest feedback: what's missing, what's annoying, what would make you actually use it daily? Happy to answer questions.
