Stand your iPhone or an old iPad sideways on your desk. Now it's a clock. Clockist has six clocks, each a tribute to a real piece of design: the split-flap airport board, the cold-cathode Nixie tube, the German minimalist desk clock, e-ink paper, a titanium instrument dial and Liquid Glass. Swipe left or right for a different clock. The screen stays on. SIX CLOCKS • Mechanical Flip — Solari-style cards that really flip every minute (free) • Paper — big numerals with an ink-on-paper feel (free) • Nixie Tube — unlit cathodes still visible inside the glass, in amber, ice, jade or rose • Classic Desk Clock — a nod to German industrial design, with selectable backlight; sound and settings live on the panel • Titanium — brushed, blasted, weave or guilloché finish • Liquid Glass — six flowing colors Every clock works in landscape and portrait, with a 24-hour option, seconds and a mechanical tick. DAYS: COUNT DOWN OR UP • Count down to a day, or count up from one • Birthdays and anniversaries repeat every year and count to the next one • Days within 30 days, anniversaries and every 100th day show up on the clock face for a while • Show the count in large numerals in place of the time • Get a reminder at 9 AM on the day, or add it to Calendar • Days back up to iCloud and restore on a new phone FOCUS TIMER The same clock becomes a focus timer: 15, 25, 45 or 60 minutes, same look. Add rain, ocean waves, night forest, campfire, café, library, brown noise or a mechanical tick. HOME & LOCK SCREEN WIDGETS • A Home Screen widget for every clock, with its own appearance, Nixie color or titanium finish • Paper Calendar: the month and the time together • Days widgets in small, medium and large (and extra large on iPad); the large one lists all your days; four styles • Lock Screen clock and Days CLOCKIST PRO Free: the Mechanical Flip and Paper clocks with their widgets, the focus timer with every soundscape, and up to 3 days. Pro unlocks all six clocks, every Liquid Glass color, all Pro Home and Lock Screen widgets, and unlimited days. Pro is available as a monthly or yearly subscription or a one-time purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage them in your Apple ID settings.

Tiltly Timer is the most intuitive and minimalist countdown tool designed for your iPhone. Whether you are cooking the perfect pasta, managing your focus sessions, or timing your daily workout, Tiltly Timer turns the simple act of rotating your phone into a powerful productivity tool. The core concept is simple: Gravity is your interface. No more fumbling with digital wheels or typing numbers every time you need a quick countdown. By simply changing the orientation of your device, Tiltly Timer automatically detects the movement and starts the corresponding timer you have predefined. HOW IT WORKS Tiltly Timer uses your devices gyroscope and accelerometer to understand how you are holding it. You can set three different durations for the three main positions: Portrait: Keep your phone upright for your standard timer. Landscape Left: Tilt it to the left for a second custom duration. Landscape Right: Tilt it to the right for a third custom duration. Once you tilt the device, the screen fills with a soothing pastel color and the countdown begins immediately. The giant, bold numbers allow you to check the remaining time from across the room at a single glance. FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE We believe that a tool you use every day should fit your personal style. That is why Tiltly Timer offers full customization: Custom Durations: Choose exactly how many minutes you want for each orientation through the simple settings menu. Personalized Colors: Use the built in color picker to assign a unique pastel shade to each timer. Make your cooking timer red, your study timer blue, and your rest timer yellow. The choice is yours. Haptic and Sound Alerts: Stay informed with gentle haptic feedback and clear audio signals when the time is up. You can toggle these alerts on or off to suit your environment. KEY FEATURES Minimalist Interface: A clean, distraction free design that focuses entirely on the time. Gravity Based Control: Start and switch timers just by rotating your phone. Visual Feedback: A pulsing dot indicator lets you know the timer is active. Smart Background Notifications: If you close the app or lock your screen, Tiltly Timer will send you a notification exactly when the time expires, ensuring you never miss a beat. Always Ready: The app prevents the screen from dimming while the timer is active, making it the perfect companion on your kitchen counter or office desk. Accessibility Focused: Large, high contrast numbers and support for haptic feedback make the app easy to use for everyone. PERFECT FOR EVERY SITUATION In the Kitchen: Assign different times to Portrait and Landscape for boiling water, searing steak, or baking cookies. No more touching the screen with messy hands. For Productivity: Use it as a simplified Pomodoro tracker. Set your work time in Portrait and your breaks in Landscape. For Workouts: Quickly time your planks or rest intervals by simply flipping your phone on the gym mat. For Kids: A visual and fun way for children to understand how much time is left for play or chores. NO TRACKING AND NO ADS Tiltly Timer is a premium, private experience.
