In Minecraft, items dropped on the ground will despawn after five minutes. But here is no way to determine how long an item has been staying on the ground. Items Timer Mod is here to assist with that. This mod basically adds a timer overlay above dropped items, showing a countdown until it despawns.

Frequently asked questions
How do I see the timer on dropped items?
Once the mod is installed, timers will appear automatically above any item dropped on the ground. The countdown displays in real-time, showing how many seconds remain before the item despawns.
Can I turn off the timer display?
Yes, most versions of this mod include a configuration option to disable the timer overlay. Check your mod's config file or in-game settings menu to toggle the display on or off.
Does the timer show for items in water or lava?
The timer displays for dropped items regardless of their environment, including items floating in water or lava. This helps you track items in complex transportation systems involving liquids.
Why do some items disappear before the timer reaches zero?
Items can be picked up by players, hoppers, or other collection mechanisms before the timer expires. The timer only tracks natural despawn time—it doesn't account for items being collected by your system.
