TIME CONTRACTIONS WITH ONE TAP Start and stop each contraction with a single tap.

It is free for everyone. BREATHING GUIDE AND NIGHT MODE Follow a slow breathing circle with gentle haptics during a contraction. A dim, red-tinted Night mode keeps the screen easy on the eyes in the middle of the night. KICK COUNTER Count your baby's movements and see how long it takes to reach 10.

A simple contraction timer. Start it when a contraction begins and stop it when it ends. That's it. Share a private link so your partner, doctor, or midwife can follow your contractions live, from anywhere. They don't need to install the app. They open the link in a browser and watch in real time. ONE TAP Start when a contraction begins, stop when it ends. The duration is kept for you. ALL IN ONE Duration and intervals on one screen. See your history in a clear chart. LIVE SHARING (OPTIONAL) Sharing is fully in your control. Records are shared without your name, only with the people you send the link to, and you can stop at any time. You can also create a new link and close the old one whenever you want. CHOOSE YOUR PATTERN Pick a 5-1-1, 4-1-1, or 3-1-1 guideline and get a gentle notification when the pattern you chose is met. This app does not make decisions for you. If you feel different or unwell, do not wait for the pattern. Contact your doctor or midwife. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your records stay on your phone. No account, no ads, no analytics. SEVEN LANGUAGES The app opens in your phone's language. English, Turkish, and five more. ContractionTimer is a simple contraction timer, not a medical device. It doesn't diagnose, give medical advice, or decide anything for you. For anything concerning your health, contact your doctor or midwife.
