About

ProgressTimer

Features
Read full description

Time, shown as a single bar. ProgressTimer is a minimal landscape timer that turns elapsed time into a full-screen progress bar. For pomodoro sessions, workouts, cooking, presentation rehearsals — anywhere you want to see time at a glance, even from across the room. ◆ Two modes Count Down Set a duration and watch the bar fill from empty to full as time elapses. Count Up Start from zero and let the bar grow toward your target duration. Both modes auto-stop when the target is reached and play your selected alarm tone. ◆ Landscape × giant progress bar Numbers are secondary — progress is the point. A monochrome bar fills the entire screen so you can read your status from a distance. The time is rendered in a large monospaced number at the center, optimized for legibility against the moving bar. ◆ Lock Screen & Dynamic Island Full Live Activity support. The progress bar and remaining time appear on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Play, pause, and restart the timer without ever opening the app. ◆ Keeps running in the background Closing the app or locking your screen doesn't stop the timer. When time's up, a local notification fires with your chosen alarm tone — Beep, Chime, Bell, or Digital. Use the system volume or set an in-app volume independently. ◆ Icon-first interface No text labels — every control is an icon. From mode selection to duration setup to start, you can begin a session in three taps. Designed to stay out of your way. ◆ Features ・Count Down / Count Up modes ・Hours / Minutes / Seconds wheel picker (up to 24 hours) ・Full-screen progress bar (landscape-only) ・Live Activity (Lock Screen / Dynamic Island) ・Pause / Resume / Restart from Lock Screen ・4 built-in alarm tones + none ・System volume or in-app volume slider ・Local notifications for background alarms ・In-app language switching (English / Japanese) ・Theme support (System / Light / Dark) ・Pure monochrome, distraction-free design ・Locked to landscape for fullscreen visibility ◆ Completely offline, completely private ProgressTimer makes zero network requests.
