## What is Tameno?

Stop counting. Keep doing.

Tameno is your versatile, auto-repeating timer that effectively guides you through any repetitive task.

Set an interval between 2 seconds and 20 minutes, and Tameno will gently notify you each time it elapses (with a sound, a flash of your screen, or a haptic vibration) – and then automatically restart.


= UNIVERSAL PURCHASE =
Tameno is a one-time purchase. Buy it once and enjoy it across your Apple Watch, iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV!


= ANYTHING REPETITIVE BENEFITS FROM TAMENO =
I originally built Tameno to solve two very specific daily needs:
• Watering the garden: Getting tapped every 30 seconds so I can move to the next hedge plant without losing count.
• Brushing my teeth: Getting a 10-second nudge to switch to the next side of each quadrant equally.

Since its first release, users have found incredibly creative ways to use it:
• Fitness & Health: Running/walking intervals, yoga pose holds, stretching routines, and physical therapy.
• Mindfulness: Leading guided meditations, box breathing, and following the 20-20-20 “rule” to reduce eye strain (looking 20m away for 20s every 20 mins).
• Productivity: Timing keyframes for manual animations, pacing presentations, and time-boxing tasks.


= ALWAYS READY, ON EVERY DEVICE =
Tameno provides Audio, Visual, and Haptic feedback perfectly tailored to the device you're using:
• Apple Watch: Haptic vibrations (even in the background).
• iPhone & iPad: Sound (background/foreground), screen flash (foreground), and vibration (iPhone only).
• Mac: Sound, screen flash, Dock icon badging, and a convenient Menu Bar timer.
• Apple TV: Sound (background/foreground) and screen flashes (foreground).


= WIDGETS & SIRI SHORTCUTS =
• Home Screen Widgets: (Available on Apple Watch, Mac, iPhone, and iPad) Quickly access your 'Favorite Interval', see your 'Recently Used' timers, or start a custom interval right from your Home Screen with Interactive Widgets.
• Siri Shortcuts: Control Tameno with your voice. Set up custom phrases with custom intervals like “Hey Siri, I’m brushing my teeth” for a 10-second timer, or “Hey Siri, I’m watering my plants” for 30 seconds.

### 2/5 — 有点弱智

*2026-07-12*

最长20分钟，调时间很困难，不方便

**Developer response:** Hi 家han,
thank you for your feedback on Tameno.
You can adjust the time by swiping up and down, or double-tap-swiping up and down for minutes, or by (long-)pressing the +- buttons, or by using the digital crown on your watch.

### 5/5 — Super!

*2024-05-28*

Exakt sowas habe ich gerade gesucht für ein selbst zusammengestelltes Fitnessprogramm aus aneinander gehängten 1-Minütern. Genial! 😊

### 5/5 — Excellent tool!

*2024-04-04*

Thank you very much!

### 5/5 — Only app of its kind

*2024-01-19*

This app is great because of its versatility, where I can choose how long the timeframes are.

### 3/5 — Interesting, but limited

*2024-01-07*

Works well, gets your attention, but will only count down from 60 second - max. This limitation isn't clear from the product page. Unfortunately there isn't a trial version one can use to discover this limitation. Suggestion for future versions / more stars - have seconds, minutes, and hours modes.

**Developer response:** Hi ATDT +++,

Tameno now features intervals up to 20 minutes - I hope that helps : )

Cheers,
- Matthias

### 5/5 — Very useful!

*2023-10-25*

Thank you very much!

### 5/5 — Helpful and simple

*2023-09-18*

Really helpful and straighforward app that does what it says. It's nice that a basic utility like this is one purchase that works across every Apple device. One feature request: ability to adjust the volume of the audio feedback, especially on Mac where one is frequently also listening to music or watching videos.
