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.
