WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH TIMEWAVE?

TimeWave allows you to combine your breathwork app, your workout app, your focus timer, cooking timer and much more into one single app. You can use TimeWave for:

• Breathwork — build custom breathing flows like 4-7-8 Breathing to lower blood pressure, Physiological Sigh to reduce stress and anxiety, Wim Hof Breathing to increase alertness, Box Breathing to relax and much more.

• Intermittent Fasting — Create your own intermittent fasting using various splits like 16:8, 12:12, 5:2, etc. You can create timer-splits for each day or for the entire week.

• Workout Routines — create your own workouts by chaining excercise and break durations. You can make Tabata/HIIT workouts or even yoga routines.

• 20-20-20 Rule — create a timewave to follow the 20-20-20 rule (Every 20 minutes look at something 20 ft away for 20 seconds) while working with screens to prevent eye-strain.

• Focus Timers — create pomodoro timers or any kind of work-break timewaves. You are not restricted to 25 minute session, you can create any sequence that suits your preferences.

• Cooking — ever had to keep resetting your timers after each whistle? well, now you wont have to. Just create a timewave for each recipe.

• Everything — anything else that involves timed sequential tasks.


SPECIAL FEATURES:

• TimeWave A.I — TimeWave will tell you what has to be done for how long while the Calibre is running. For eg: "Breathe In For 4 Seconds" so you don't have to look at the screen.

• iCloud Sync — Available on Mac, iPad, iPhone and Apple Watch and keeps everything up-to to date on all your devices with iCloud Sync.

• Black & White UI — B&W is a lot of colours. If you are anything like us, you'll love our ironically modern black and white UI.


MORE:

• Personal touch — a hand-crafted Indie app.

### 5/5 — Super helpful!

*2024-12-19*

One of the best timer apps out there!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words 🤍🔖

### 5/5 — Complete and effective

*2024-12-09*

Excellent app, I have used it for my hiit training (sequential timers) and doing house chores (multiple alarms at the same time) like cooking and laundry etc.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words 🤍🔖

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2023-12-31*

The simplicity is good and the progress is  displayed as banner in a locked screen which I liked the most. Very helpful.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words 🤍🔖

### 1/5 — TimeWave: Timer Chains

*2023-10-26*

You mentioned that you make this App premium free today in setting, but can’t find setting icon!?

**Developer response:** Hi Mmbeiruti

We are really sorry about this issue. This was due to a miscalculation of timezones from our end. Could you please send us an email at timewave.team@gmail.com so that we can get this fixed for you?

Thank you so much and we are really sorry about this.

### 5/5 — Smart!

*2023-09-21*

Really useful for lots of things! Chaining timers is handy. Great stuff.

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for the kind words. Hope you have a great day :)

### 5/5 — Finally, Stacked Timers that Work

*2023-08-30*

I’ve tried a handful of apps that promise the ability to make custom timer stacks for whatever task you like (e.g., Chemex coffee pours, Pomodoro, etc.). Where those other apps have struggled are things like actually kicking off the next timer and/or alerting you that it’s time to move to the next step in your process. 

TimeWave gets it right! I have this app parked in a complication that gives me easy access to the timers I’ve created. 

A tip from the developer regarding haptic feedback: Go to settings in the Apple Watch app on your iPhone -> General -> Return to Clock -> TimeWave, and update TimeWave to have a 1 hour limit. This will let TimeWave provide haptic feedback on your watch for timers up to an hour in length. 

H/T to MacStories.net for alerting us to this great app.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words 🔖🤍. Hope you have a great day :)

### 5/5 — Excellent App & Dev. Wildly Underrated.

*2023-07-11*

TimeWave is one of those apps that is pretty hard to find in the App Store, but is so worth the search. Not only can you form multiple timer chains that serve different purposes, but they’ll work on any of your devices (M chip Macs, Apple Watch, iPad, & iPhone. 

I’m using TimeWave to help me form good habits through routines. The voice-guided prompts & ability to set timer reminders (ie. Remember to start your X timer now) are absolutely stand out features that none of the routine apps or timer chain apps have (I’ve researched extensively, hence how I found TimeWave). 

That being said, you can do a lot more with TimeWave, your imagination is your biggest limitation.

Initially, the app had a bug that I reached out to the dev to fixed. He was very professional, communicative, & diligent. He fixed the bug quickly & answered all my questions. 

Overall, great app, great dev, & great functionality across purposes.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words 🔖🤍. We do have a lot of stuff planned, but if somethings amazing pops up in your imagination, feel free to let us know in the Feedback Section and we'll make it happen 😊🚀. Have a great day!!
