NodeDown
Read full descriptionHide full description
NodeDown is a countdown timer built around checkpoints — not just one end time. Set a total duration, then place nodes along the timeline. While the clock runs, NodeDown always shows how long until the next node and until the finish — so you always know where you are and what's coming next. PERFECT FOR • Talks and presentations — "Q&A in 5 minutes", "time to wrap up" • Exams and proctoring — pace every section with clear time marks • Workouts — warm-up, intervals, and cooldown on one continuous clock • Livestreams and events — hit every segment right on time • Cooking, ceremonies, rehearsals, games — anything with milestones KEY FEATURES • One continuous countdown with color-coded node markers on a single timeline • Always-visible time to next node and time to end • Name and color every node • Local notifications when each node is reached — even in the background • Haptic and sound alerts (toggleable) • Pause, resume, and skip forward • Save countdowns as presets and reuse them anytime • Sync your countdowns via iCloud • Dark mode support HOW IT WORKS 1. Set the total duration (e.g. 60 minutes) 2. Add nodes at the key moments (e.g. 20 and 40 minutes) 3. Press Start — NodeDown keeps track of the rest Simple to set up, clear while running — that's NodeDown.
