## What is Liminal Time?

What if your focus timer ran at the speed of another world?

Liminal Time is a focus and meditation timer built around one idea: every planet bends time differently. On Jupiter, time flows slower — one minute here is over 80 seconds on Earth. Near a black hole, almost nothing moves at all.

Choose your world. Borrow its time.

WORLDS

• Mercury — a brisk 1.18x push for when you need momentum
• Mars — steady 1.28x for deep, deliberate work
• Earth — back to the rhythm you already know
• Jupiter — a slow 0.72x tide for a quieter mind
• Sagittarius A* — the black hole at the center of our galaxy, 0.24x
• M87* — the most massive black hole ever imaged, nearly still at 0.10x

FEATURES

• Real-time planet clock with rotating NASA textures
• Focus countdown with an animated hourglass
• Achievement log tracking your time across worlds
• Landscape desk-ornament mode
• Millisecond precision toggle
• Full Chinese and English support

Time is the one thing you can't make more of.
But you can choose whose you borrow.


## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.0.1 — 2026-04-02

Restored the NASA planet textures, so bodies like Earth and Mercury display correctly again.
Added a confirmation step before starting a timer. Choosing a duration now shows the converted planetary time first instead of entering the countdown immediately.
Improved the timer selection transition with smoother fade and slide animations for the conversion panel, confirm button, and cancel action.
Fixed achievement tracking so session time is recorded more reliably, especially for timed sessions and when the app is interrupted or sent to the background.
Removed the unwanted glow under the main Enter button on the selection screen.
Refined the overall timer flow to feel clearer, smoother, and less prone to accidental starts.

### 1.0 — 2026-03-30
