Drawn Timers is the timer app that works the way your brain does. Instead of typing a label, you sketch it. Draw a pizza, a coffee cup, a dumbbell – and Drawn turns your sketch into a timer. It's faster, more fun, and way more memorable than anything you've typed before. That's especially useful for timers you use again and again. Your doodles stick in your memory in a way that "Timer 1" or "Pasta" never will. Set it once, recognize it instantly next time. Run multiple timers at the same time, each with its own drawing. Get notified with sound and haptics when your time is up – so you never miss a moment. Whether you're cooking, working out, studying, or just need a reminder, Drawn Timers makes it feel less like a chore and more like play. Features: - Sketch to create timers – no typing needed - Recurring timers you'll actually recognize - Run multiple timers simultaneously - Sound and haptic alerts when time's up - Lock screen- & dynamic Island widget to keep timers in view
