Bits vs BitTimer Pro

Bits is an app for professional stand-up comedians. It’s designed to keep your writing process fast and organized so you can focus on your comedy instead of the tools. Here's what it offers: *WRITE BITS* Whenever a funny thought pops into your brain, you can quickly add it to your infinite bits list. Just open the app, hit that plus button, and start writing. All your bits are saved securely*, instantly, and automatically so you won’t have to worry about that. *ADD NOTES* Writing the perfect bit comes with lots of experimentation and small details to remember. To help you with the ongoing process of adjustments, each bit has its section of notes. Bits and notes always come together so you won’t be able to lose important notes you’ve written to yourself. *BUILD SETS* We all wish for the perfect set. The set will catch the crowd on its first bit and finish with resounding laughter. This glory set is the easiest to build and manage. You can add bits to existing sets or create a new set and add bits to it. Simply drag & drop to reorder the bits and have them ready one by one. Move jokes up and down, remove and add until you find that perfect balance of laughs. *ON STAGE MODE* The old days of paper pages on a stool are over! When you’re up there on stage, you can switch to the on-stage mode and have your set ready for your performance. The screen will remain turned on and all black. While you perform, you can swipe right or left to indicate if the joke did well or not so you can come back to it later and reshape it the way you think best. *ORGANIZE WITH LABELS* Planning a Christmas set? And how about those airport bits? Or where did you put all of your funny bits about your dad? Oh, they’re all labeled! Label each bit with any label(s) you want. Either apply labels from the bit screen or add bits to an existing label from the labels screen. Access by bit the themes you think are most suitable for your next set. *SET STATUSES* Writing a bit is a process. It starts with a thought and moves up the ladder until it’s done. Draft, done, or gold - these are predefined statuses for your bits which will help you plan ahead and easily see which bits need more work, which can be performed and get laughs, and which are so good that you can close and get max cheers from your crowd. *TIME YOUR BITS* You got only 5 minutes, 5:10 at most. Which bits can be squeezed in to fit that time limitation? Oh, that’s easy. Each bit is generated with an approximate time it’ll take you to perform it, but you can always tweak it and make sure you can plan every bit to fit perfectly into its time slot. ---- --- *Please note that material backup, bit feedback, and custom icons are available to paid subscribers only. ---- --- I’d love to answer your questions or just hear what you think about Bits.

Set timer and Joke Bank for stand-up comics. Every comic knows the two ways a set dies: running long, and blanking on the bit that kills. BitTimer Pro fixes both. It's the timer that keeps you tight and the home for every joke you've ever written — made by comics, for comics. A TIMER BUILT FOR THE STAGE A dual-ring countdown shows your whole set and your current bit at once. The ring drains green → yellow → red as your time runs out, so one glance tells you exactly where you stand — no doing math in your head under the lights. CUES YOU CAN FEEL Set your own end-of-set alerts (3 / 2 / 1 minutes, or whatever you like) with haptic, audio, and light-flash options. Feel the buzz, don't stare at the phone. Mute it all with one tap before you grab the mic. YOUR WHOLE ACT IN ONE PLACE The Joke Bank is your source of truth. Grade each joke A–F, tag it by topic, track how many times you've tried it, and shelf works-in-progress in the Parking Lot without losing the grade. Search your entire book in seconds. BUILD BITS. BUILD SETS. Pull jokes into bits, tag them Opener / Strong / Closer, and order them the way you run them. Stack bits into sets for the open mic, the showcase, or the clean corporate 20 — each with its own length and alerts. KNOW WHAT'S ACTUALLY WORKING Log every show — venue, slot, crowd energy, and a grade for each joke as it landed that night. Performance Stats turn those logs into trends: total sets, unique jokes performed, average crowd, and which material is climbing. RECORD THE SET (PRO) Capture your set right in the app, then play it back to hear your pacing, your tags, and the laughs. Share a recording, or keep it as a draft attached to that show so the audio is never lost. PRE-SET CHECK One tap before you go up nudges you to switch on Focus / Do Not Disturb, so a text mid-closer never happens again. ON YOUR WRIST The Apple Watch timer runs on its own — glance at your set from the stage, hands free, even when your phone's in your jacket. YOUR MATERIAL, YOUR FILE Export your entire library to one file you own — a real backup, and the way to carry your act to a new phone. Or export just your Joke Bank as a CSV to open in a spreadsheet. Everything is generated on your device; nothing is sent to us, and there's no account to make. (Free for everyone — your material is always yours.) PERFECT FOR Open-mic regulars · Features & headliners · Comedy writers punching up sets · Anyone building a tight five, a showcase set, or an hour. — Download free. Go Pro for unlimited sets, bits, and jokes, set recording, and the Apple Watch timer. SUBSCRIPTION BitTimer Pro is an auto-renewing subscription: $24.99 per year or $5.99 per month.
