## What is Eyes Off Timer?

Eyes Off Timer is an interval timer for Apple Watch, designed for you to start it, put your wrist down, and follow the intervals by haptics alone.

Why Eyes Off Timer

# Screen-Free by Design
You don't need to look at the screen during a run. Every interval boundary is communicated by haptics. Useful when you're stretching, meditating, doing yoga, practicing breath work, or holding a posture — situations where your eyes should be closed or elsewhere.

# Consistent Haptic Vocabulary
Interval start, interval end, and run end are told apart by the count and length of the haptic burst, not by subtle differences in intensity. Counts and durations survive on the wrist far better than intensity variation, so boundaries are hard to miss.

# Automatic Transition Rests
Insert a transition rest before every interval by setting a "transition time" on the preset. Useful when you need a few seconds to move into the next posture — the rests don't have to be built as intervals by hand. The screen shows the name of the upcoming interval and a "Ready" label during the transition, and the interval counter (e.g., "2 / 5") counts only the working intervals.

Key Features

Preset Editor
Build presets on the iPhone app as an ordered list of intervals. Each interval has a label and a duration in seconds. Reorder, duplicate, and delete as needed.

Interval Runner
Pick a preset on the Apple Watch and start it. The current interval name, remaining time, and the interval counter are shown on the screen — but you don't need to look at any of them. Raise your wrist only when you want to check.

Transition Time
Set a per-preset transition time. Zero means no rests are inserted. Any positive value inserts a rest before every interval (including the first).

Simple Data
Presets live only on your device. No login. No network required.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 0.1.4 — 2026-09-15

v0.1.4

- The stop button on the Apple Watch run screen now asks for confirmation, so a stray tap no longer ends your session.
- Pause and stop have swapped places on Apple Watch: pause is now on the right, stop on the left.
- Added "Swap button positions" in Settings. Turn it on to mirror the Apple Watch buttons (for left-handed wearers).

### 0.1.3 — 2026-09-01

v0.1.3

- Fixed Watch completions taking minutes to reach the iPhone. Counts now update in near real time.
- Fixed history restored from an imported file being wiped by a later Watch sync. Imported records and Watch records now merge correctly.
- Fixed the today count on preset rows not resetting after midnight (both iPhone and Apple Watch).
- Re-importing the same file no longer duplicates presets or history — device migrations and reinstalls restore cleanly.

### 0.1.2 — 2026-08-31

v0.1.2

- Added a completion heatmap and calendar (Pro). The free tier keeps a trailing 7-day strip.
- Tap any day in the history to see the completions and cancellations recorded on that day.
- Presets can now play a light mid-interval haptic every few seconds so you can feel time passing (0–300 s, per preset).
- Export/import now includes the completion history, so a device migration or reinstall keeps your streak.

### 0.1.1 — 2026-08-29

v0.1.1

- Added a completion log so you can look back at finished runs.
- Presets now have a memo URL field for attaching a reference link.
- Presets can be exported and imported as JSON.
- Renamed "Timer" to "Preset" throughout the app for consistency.

### 0.1.0 — 2026-08-27

No release notes.
