Flip Timer utilizes your phone's proximity sensor to help you stay focused on your work.

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.

About

Axis Productivity

Read full description

Axis is one place for the things you're actually trying to keep track of. Most apps make you choose: a task manager here, a habit tracker there, notes somewhere else, and nothing that knows about anything else. Axis puts them in one app where they share context - so your tasks, calendar, routines and goals understand each other. EVERYTHING, FREE No trial, no locked features, no ads. PLAN YOUR DAY - Tasks with due dates, priorities and time blocks - A full calendar with events and classes, laid out hour by hour - Routines that repeat on any schedule - daily, weekly, or patterns you define - Projects with sub-projects, milestones and templates that spawn on a cycle THINK AND REMEMBER - Notes and a journal with rich text, plus voice notes you can dictate - Goals with sub-goals and metrics that update themselves - People - who matters, and what you last talked about TRAIN - Workouts, lifts and personal records - Body metrics and nutrition targets that adapt as you go - Route mapping for runs, and Strava sync NOVA, YOUR AI ASSISTANT Nova does things rather than just answering - adds tasks, reorganizes projects, writes notes. Each night it compiles your day into a digest, so your journal writes itself, and it remembers what matters so you don't repeat yourself. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No ads, no tracking, nothing sold to anyone. Face ID lock for the app and an encrypted vault for passwords.
