Lose track of time while working or studying? Caynax Hourly Chime brings you back to the moment with a familiar hourly signal—without making you check the clock. • Choose the days and hours you want a chime; create an easy rhythm for focus sessions, short breaks and everyday routines. • Get audible signals and background notifications. Set up a simple hourly alert instead of another full alarm. • Use the time cue to remember to stretch, drink water, switch tasks or wind down. Notifications depend on your device settings. A CLOCK CUE FOR THE WAY YOU LIVE A clock on your phone can tell you the time, but checking it often leads to another distraction. An hourly signal is different: it gives you a small checkpoint while you keep reading, writing, creating, cooking, or taking care of everyday tasks. You decide when that interruption is useful. Use chimes during work hours, select particular weekdays, and leave quieter parts of the week alone. BUILD A ROUTINE WITHOUT MORE ALARMS A chime can mark the end of a study hour, remind you to move after sitting at a desk, or prompt a quick check of your next task. It's also a helpful cue when you tend to lose track of time during long periods of concentration. You don't have to treat every signal as a deadline. Sometimes hearing that another hour has passed is all you need to reset your attention and choose what to do next. KEEP YOUR CHIMES ORGANIZED Create settings for different parts of your day instead of relying on one generic alarm. Duplicate a chime setup with a swipe, then adjust it for another situation. Sort your chimes by time or by name, and find deleted items in the Trash view. With PRO, choose the precise minute and second for a cue, have the clock say the time or a phrase you wrote, use your own sound, or add a chime at sunrise or sunset. ALERTS ON YOUR TERMS Chimes use iOS notifications and sound behavior. What you actually hear depends on notification permission, volume, Focus or Silent settings, and the available system voices. This app is intended for everyday time awareness, not as a guaranteed alarm for urgent or medical events. Free features cover basic time chimes. PRO unlocks spoken time and your own text-to-speech messages, custom alert sounds, minute-and-second timing and sunrise/sunset chimes. PRO removes ads and is available through a subscription or a one-time purchase. Removing ads alone is a separate purchase and does not unlock PRO. Make your day easier to follow, one chime at a time.
