TI Timer is a turn timer built for long board-game nights—especially Twilight Imperium 4. Track exactly how long each player spends thinking, keep the table moving, and review the stats when the game is over. Whether you’re playing a quick afternoon session or an all-day galactic war, TI Timer stays accurate in the background, survives pauses and interruptions, and gives your group a fair, clear record of who used the clock—and who didn’t. BUILT FOR THE TABLE • Large, readable active-player display in portrait and landscape • One-tap Next Player, Pass, and Undo • Timestamp-based timing that stays correct when you lock your phone or switch apps • Pause support for food breaks, rules disputes, and pizza arrivals TWILIGHT IMPERIUM 4 • Strategy card tracking and round flow tools made for TI4 • Initiative and in-game TI4 options your group can turn on as needed • Mark strategy cards as used during a round • Detailed post-game stats and a TI4 Hall of Fame for your regular group LOCK SCREEN LIVE ACTIVITIES See whose turn it is without unlocking your phone. The Lock Screen shows the current player, turn timer, and who’s on deck—and you can advance to the next player right from the Lock Screen. YOUR CREW, YOUR VOICES Save players to a library with custom colors. Record name announcements or generate them with AI, then hear each player called when their turn begins. STATS THAT MATTER • Live thinking-time stats during play • Full results with rankings and charts when the game ends • Group statistics across multiple games MADE FOR LONG GAMES TI Timer is designed for sessions that run hours, not minutes. Recover after unexpected app closes, undo accidental taps, and back up players and game data to iCloud so reinstalling doesn’t wipe your group’s history. ALSO WORKS FOR OTHER GAMES TI Timer started with TI4 in mind, but it works for any turn-based board game where you want fair timing and good post-game data. Stop guessing who’s "thinking" the most. Start measuring it.
