Like a dream

Worked great as we followed most of the guidelines carefully without being extreme. Wonderful to start enjoying Vietnam immediately

Fantastic

This app is great. Used it for an upcoming trip and to my surprise, I didn't experience any jet lag like I normally would. I particularly like the puch notifications, so that I don't have to remember when to what or when to do it. Will use again.

Long haul

This app worked extremely well on my flight from Western Australia to Philadelphia.
I arrived well-rested and full of energy. The test will now be the flight back home next week, but I feel very confident that I’ll return and feel the same.

Vast Improvement

Truly helped adjust

Can’t handle daylight savings

App doesn’t know the right time in London right now. London is only 7 hours different from LA. App don’t account for that. Annoying.

Actually works

Worth every penny!!! Flying from the US to Europe, Asia, Middle East is a breeze with this!

US to Germany

I followed the plan as closely as possible. I didn’t get nor did I expect to get the number of hours of sleep on the plane that was planned but everything worked out well. I was tired on the travel day but was able to stick with the plan and immediately got on the new time zone. Those we were staying with said they had never had guests be up before them on the day after travel. They watched us adapt and are sold on the app and the concept. I will do it every time I travel over seas.

Every traveler needs this

As someone who’s been unreasonably wrecked by even one hour differences in the past, I was nervous about the five hour shift when visiting a friend in Hawaii. With only a four day trip, could I both be adjusted enough to make the most of our time together and then get right back into my daily work schedule when I came back?

Timeshifter made than an unequivocal yes. Small nudges that reminded me when to get in the sunshine (without sunglasses!) and when to avoid caffeine were the perfect cadence, and never felt intrusive or bossy. While I still woke up a bit earlier than normal, it was in an acceptable “early bird” range, not prowling the house at 2am because my brain was confused.

Coming back on a 8-hour red eye was (predictably) heinous and the sleep I managed to grab was fitful. Still, I clocked just what Timeshifter recommended, and rolled into a normal workday.

I was tired, but again the nudges kept me from reaching for an extra coffee. I solidly fell asleep around my normal bedtime, and am up the next day with only the lingering fatigue of air travel, not the trans-Pacific time difference. I’m recommending this app to anyone who’s ever struggled with even a small amount of jet lag disruption, and now I’m curious if it can help my kid and I get ready for the fall time change.

Very good app

Used this for a trip to Borneo. Followed the instructions as closely as I could. Didn’t have jet lag on the way out or on the way back so would certainly use again.

Works so well!

This app makes travel so much easier. Twice I’ve used it for transatlantic travel and have had no problems hitting the ground running. It truly minimizes any jet lag.

What a help!

We used the Timeshifter App for the first time on our recent trip to Morocco. While we weren’t able to follow the directions exactly, we got quite close. The reminders were helpful without being intrusive and or annoying. The results were amazing. We had a bit of jet lag on trip over to Morocco and none in the way home. It’s been three days and we are fully adjusted to our home time zone. I used to travel a lot for work. I wish I had known about this back then. I will use Timeshifter for all my travel in the future.

Great tool for reducing jetlag

I have been using this app for years, and I find it to be very helpful to understand how to adjust to the time change. While it is sometimes difficult to follow all of the advice, especially before the trip it’s great to know.

And while you’re traveling, especially about when to get light and go to sleep helps a lot. When there’s a question they always respond helpfully. My only wish list items are being able to add a trip if I miss the beginning (I usually just add it as a later trip so I can see what the advice is) and one I just thought of: being able to add notes during the trip.

The reality is, it’s just nice to have a companion app with reminders to give you some idea of how to adjust the most quickly. One day I’ll actually skip the in flight meal when it says!

Never had jet lag!

I downloaded this app for my trip to Paris. It was my first international trip to Europe with a large time difference. I was worried about jet lag because I wanted to enjoy my trip and not be exhausted the whole time. I was a little skeptical of this app at first and wondered if it would really work, but I decided to follow it. The great thing is it wasn’t radical change. Even starting two days before my trip it was small gradual changes that were easy to do. And I adjusted To the time difference from East Coast United States to Paris very easily. A lot easier than I imagined. I never felt like I had jet lag. Even after I came home I never had that exhausted feeling. And it wasn’t that hard to switch back to my normal time zone. I think using this, plus drinking a lot of electrolytes in your water, are what really helped me prepare for my trip and made it so successful. I loved that it gave you tips of when to get Sunshine, when to drink caffeine, and when to avoid both. I think that really helped. I highly recommend this app and will definitely use it again for my next adventure!

jet lag eradicated!

have travelled internationally on long hauls for years & have gotten used to jet lag BUT in the last 3 or so years have used Timeshifter and amazed not to experience that jumpy jet lag feeling at all. swear by it now & highly recommend.

Incredible!

I flew from the east coast to LA to Tokyo and was able to hit the ground running (as one does in Tokyo). I acclimated to and from better than anyone else I traveled with because of Time Shifter! I will be using this every time I travel internationally. The tips are easy to follow. Not having ANY jet lag after spending three weeks in a country with a 13 hour difference was incredible. 10/10 experience.

Worked like a charm!

I experience insignificant jet lag and am so grateful to Timeshift! Highly recommend!

Great App!

This works perfectly if you follow it well. Sometimes I have to work the day after travel with long time shifts and it helps sooo much. Thank you!!

Super helpful!

I’m so glad I gave Timeshifter a go, the app is very user friendly, you pop your flight details in and it automatically sets a plan for the few days before / after your flight.

Totally love the app, but..

How wonderful would it be if you imported from TripIt or flighty?

Not Practical to Use

If you have a job, responsibilities, pets, and/or children, this app is difficult to follow. The timing for going to bed and waking up is nearly impossible to comply with. I’m glad I could try this for free for the first trip before committing.
