Flip Timer vs Focused Timer

Flip Timer utilizes your phone's proximity sensor to help you stay focused on your work. It activates when your phone is placed face down on a table, eliminating distractions from notifications or tempting apps, allowing you to concentrate fully on your current task. Once the time is up, the timer will ring to remind you to take a break or transition to your next task. – If strict mode is enabled, the timer will reset if you flip your phone back before the time is up. Discipline is key! – Flashlight feature helps you notice when the timer ends, especially useful in quiet environments. – Customizable timer length: use it for work or rest.

Focused Timer is a no-frills timer for structured focus sessions. Set your focus time, short breaks, and long breaks, then hit play — the rest happens automatically. Why it's different - No ads, no account, no tracking. Just a timer. - Fully customizable session lengths and cycle counts. - Automatic transitions between focus and break — no manual restarting. - Optional sound at the end of each session. - Keep-screen-on mode so you never lose track of time. How it works This method splits work into focused sessions followed by short breaks, with a longer break after a set number of cycles. Define how long each phase should last and how many cycles you want before the long break, then let Focused Timer guide you through it. Built by an independent iOS developer who just wanted a timer that gets out of the way.
