Build a timer that walks through your routine, one named step at a time. Interval Timer for Tasks lets you chain intervals into a single timer. Give each interval its own name, duration, sound and colour, and the app calls out every step as it passes. Watch the progress ring wind down, or close the app and let a notification tell you when the current interval has ended. Save as many timers as you like, and run more than one at the same time. Add a start delay so you can get ready, and a finish delay so you can wrap up. LOCK SCREEN ALARMS Turn on Lock Screen Alarm for a timer and each interval rings like a system alarm, so it still reaches you when the screen is off. Requires iOS 26.1 or later.

Telepromptme: never fluff your lines again. Telepromptme scrolls your script while you read, so you deliver every line looking straight down the lens. Record while you read for the illusion of perfect eye contact and a memorised script. Whether you are a casual creator, a professional on a teleprompter rig, or anything in between, Telepromptme scales to meet you. START ON LITE, UPGRADE WHEN YOU WANT Telepromptme opens on Lite, with every feature unlocked so you can try the whole app before you buy anything. Lite is capped at 30 seconds per session and keeps one script and one recording. Everything else unlocks inside this app, with nothing else to download: - Pro is a one-off in-app purchase. It lifts the Lite limits: unlimited scripts and recordings, no time cap, and full PDF import. - Pro Plus is a yearly in-app subscription. It adds the production tools below and keeps them for as long as you subscribe. The subscription runs for one year and renews automatically unless you turn renewal off at least 24 hours before it ends. You can manage or cancel it any time in your App Store account settings. The sections marked Pro Plus are available on Lite and on Pro Plus, but are not part of Pro.
