Loop any moment of any video on the web - right inside Safari. VideoLoop turns Safari into a video looper. Replay a chorus, repeat a dance step, drill a sentence in a language you're learning, or just keep a video playing forever. It works on YouTube, Vimeo, X, TikTok web, and pretty much any site that plays HTML5 video. HOW IT WORKS 1. Enable VideoLoop in Safari Settings > Extensions > All Websites > Allow. 2. Open any video. 3. Tap the toolbar icon, set a Start and End time, or hit "Mark A to B" while it plays. EVERYTHING YOU CAN DO - Loop the whole video automatically - no more tapping replay. - Loop a custom range. Type a time or tap "Set to now" to grab the current playback position. - A to B repeat. One tap to mark A while the video plays, second tap to mark B. Loop starts immediately. - Playback speed: 0.5x, 0.75x, 1x, 1.5x, 2x. Perfect for music, dance, and language practice. - Quick loops: last 10 seconds, 30 seconds, or 1 minute - one tap. - Save named loops per video. Long-press a saved loop to rename. - iCloud sync. Saved loops follow you across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. - Loop count limiter. Loop 5 times, 10 times, until you say stop. - Shareable loop links. Send a friend the exact moment, with the loop pre-set. - Per-video memory. Your loop and speed are restored next time you visit. - Reliable on YouTube - no more auto-advance, no more page freezes. PERFECT FOR ⢠Musicians learning a song ⢠Dancers drilling choreography ⢠Language learners repeating phrases ⢠Athletes reviewing a clip ⢠Coaches breaking down technique ⢠Parents who just need that one video to keep playing Free. No subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no ads. Privacy: VideoLoop runs locally inside Safari. It does not track you, doesn't have an account, and doesn't send your browsing history anywhere.
RandomTimer

Random Timer is a countdown timer that runs for a time you set, or picks a random length within a range you choose. You can also hide the clock so you don't know when it will end. Two modes ⢠Basic: enter hours and minutes and count down. ⢠Random: set a minimum and maximum, and the timer picks a length between them in whole minutes. You don't have to know what it picked until it goes off. Hide the time Turn on "Hide current time" before you start, or tap to hide and show the remaining time while it runs. When hidden, the display shows only --:--:--. When time is up If the app is open when time runs out, sound and vibration repeat until you tap Stop. If you've left the app, on iOS 26 or later a system alarm rings if you've given alarm permission; otherwise you get a single notification. Pause, resume and stop anytime. The countdown keeps running even if you close the app, and reopening it shows the time left. Your last mode, times and hide setting are remembered. Good to know ⢠Times are set in hours and minutes (no seconds). ⢠Available in English, Korean, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Russian and Hindi. ⢠A banner ad shows at the bottom of the screen, and a full-screen ad appears every 10th launch. Each time your total timer use passes another 2 hours, an ad plays when you next start a timer; if you close that ad before it finishes, the timer won't start. ⢠Tap Subscribe to start a monthly auto-renewing subscription that removes all ads. Subscription details ⢠Subscribe (ad removal): 1-month auto-renewing subscription ⢠Payment is charged to your Apple ID account. ⢠It renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. ⢠Manage or cancel it in Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions. ⢠Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ ⢠Privacy Policy: https://timer.vnamu.com/privacy.html

Verdict
