Fruit Timer is a visual countdown timer that gradually reveals an image clockwise as time passes. Follow the picture and large countdown to see how much time remains. Choose watermelon, orange, or kiwi, use a favorite photo, or try the included Pomeranian, Dalmatian, and Shiba Inu portraits. Use it for studying, focused work, getting ready, tidying up, and taking breaks. Tap the large time display, choose a duration, and tap Start. Switch images while the timer is running, or pause, resume, and reset whenever you need to. Make the timer your own • Touch and hold an image button to choose a dog portrait or a photo • Zoom and adjust the position to fit the circular display • Use Settings to apply one image to one, several, or all three slots • Adjust a saved image again or restore the original fruit for each slot Everyday features • Set a duration from 1 second to 59 minutes 59 seconds • Large remaining-time digits and a circular image that shows elapsed time • Pause, resume, reset, and repeat the same duration • Separate sound and vibration settings • A local completion notification when notifications are allowed • Live Activities with remaining time on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island on supported iPhones • An option to keep the screen awake during a timer • Portrait display on iPhone; adaptable portrait, landscape, and window layouts on iPad • An optional hiragana and katakana display mode when using Japanese • 21 language and regional localizations No account is required, and there are no ads.
