vibetime. vs Shared Timer

vibetime is a visual clock and countdown timer designed to make time easier to understand at a glance. Instead of relying on numbers alone, VibeTime turns passing time into simple, colorful visuals. Use the Clock to see where you are within the current interval, or switch to the Timer and watch a grid of circles gradually disappear as time runs down. Whether you’re focusing, teaching, presenting, exercising, cooking, or helping someone transition between activities, VibeTime gives time a shape you can understand instantly. CLOCK MODE • Choose a 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, or 60-minute interval. VibeTime stays aligned with the actual clock and displays how much of the current interval has passed. • The display changes from green to yellow and red as the end approaches, making urgency visible without requiring you to constantly read the time. TIMER MODE • Set an independent countdown from 5 minutes to 2 hours. Sixty circles represent the full duration, disappearing in reading order as time passes. • Start, pause, resume, or reset the timer whenever you need. Because the countdown is based on its stored end time, it remains accurate when the app moves to the background or your device is locked. FEATURES • Visual Clock and Timer modes • Wall-clock-aligned intervals • Countdown durations from 5 to 120 minutes • Smooth, animated circle-grid countdown • Optional completion and interval alerts • Haptic feedback and tactile picker controls • Multiple clock-ring styles • Persistent settings and timer state • Dark, distraction-free presentation • Support for iPhone and iPad • Dynamic Type and Reduce Motion support • No account required • No third-party advertising or analytics SDKs vibetime is intentionally simple: open it, choose how you want to see time, and focus on what matters.

Ever set a timer, then wanted to share it so someone else can keep track with you? What if you wanted to share multiple timers? Say you have some muffins in the oven and oatmeal on the stove, but then needed to run out for coffee. Well, you can ask someone to check the oven when these muffins are ready or stove with oatmeal if they had access to your timer. Or have you ever wanted to set a timer then see when the timer actually went off? You saw the timer complete, but how long ago was that? Like if you had those muffins in the oven and the timer when off, well, how long have they been baking past when the timer went off? And if you're tracking multiple timers, maybe you're working out too. Hey guess what! Now you can! Or what about if you're the referee for the rec league soccer game and you want to let everyone know exactly when this game ends. Wouldn't it be great to have an alarm that is synced to everyone's phone? Or what if the baby naps and you want to let your partner know? No more signing up for a subscription app just for a timer! So many uses, so much room for activities! Shared Timer turns a countdown (or count up) into something everyone can experience together. Simply share a timer. I built this out of frustration because if I wanted someone else to keep track of something, I'd have to set the alarm on someone else's phone. I wanted the ability to set and share multiple timers, receive a timer, and watch those timers together. Set a timer, tap Share, and it sends a link to that person's phone. Everyone who opens the app sees the same countdown and gets the same alarm. There's no sign-ups, no accounts creation. As long as you have the app, tap the link and you're in. You and your friends can set multiple timers, share multiple timers, create recurring timers, share recurring timers, and more. You can share with multiple people too. If you're in a group and need to share one timer with 5 people, you can. This is the only timer app you will ever need! WHY PEOPLE USE IT - Kitchen coordination: "dinner's done at 6:15," and every phone in the house knows it - Baby naps: "When did the baby fall asleep?" "How long has the baby been asleep for?" Create a count up timer, then share it with whoever needs to know. They can see a live version of how long the timer has been running - Game nights & watch parties: sync the start time so nobody misses kickoff or quibbles when it's over - Workouts & study sessions: start an interval together, even in different rooms, or from across the country - Exercise intervals: workout together with recurring, shared alarms and timers - Kids & chores: "screen time ends at 6," backed by an alarm instead of an argument - Meetings & calls: a countdown to "go time" the whole group can see - Coaching: "game starts at exactly now" little league game? Soccer tournament? Get everyone on the same countdown. - Long distance: "call me the second this hits zero" BUILT THE WAY A TIMER SHOULD WORK - Create a timer by duration or by picking an exact time - Create a timer that counts up time, like a stopwatch - Share it instantly through Messages or any app you already use - Every recipient's alert fires at the same absolute moment even if they're offline or with the app closed - Only the creator can edit or cancel a timer; everyone else just watches it count down - Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, plus a Live Activity in the Dynamic Island - Nine colors to keep multiple timers straight at a glance - Full dark mode support, and available on iPad SIMPLE, HONEST PRICING Everyone's tired of subscriptions and ads.
