Read full description

The focus timer that runs when your phone is upside down. FlipTimer uses your phone's motion sensor to detect one thing: is the screen facing down? If yes, you're focusing. When you flip it back up, the session pauses. It's the most physical, intuitive focus timer ever made. You already put your phone face-down when you want to concentrate. You already know the gesture. FlipTimer just makes it count. β€” HOW IT WORKS β€” 1. Set your target time (or leave it on free run) 2. Flip your phone face-down on your desk 3. FlipTimer starts automatically β€” screen dims to black 4. Lift your phone when you're done or need a break 5. Your session is logged No buttons to press during a session. No screen to look at. No willpower required. β€” FEATURES β€” Β· Auto-start: flipping face-down starts the timer immediately Β· Auto-pause: picking up the phone pauses it Β· Screen dims to black while face-down β€” no light distraction Β· Ambient sounds: brown noise, rain, forest, white noise (plays while face-down) Β· Free run mode: counts up, no time limit Β· Countdown mode: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 45, 60 min or custom Β· Recovery screen: a warm "Nice session." moment when you pick up Β· Session log: every session saved with duration and time Β· Weekly chart: your total focus time per day Β· Streak counter: days in a row with at least one session Β· Apple Watch companion: start and stop from your wrist Β· Lock screen widget: streak and today's total at a glance β€” DESIGNED FOR β€” Deep work sessions. Homework time. Reading. Writing. Cooking. Board game turns. Anything where putting the phone down is already the goal. Parents love it for kids: "flip it when you start homework." The phone face-down is the rule and the timer in one. β€” THE RECOVERY MOMENT β€” When you pick up your phone after a long session, FlipTimer doesn't just show you a number. It gives you a brief, honest response: "28 minutes. Great focus." Then it gets out of the way. β€” AMBIENT SOUNDS β€” Choose a background sound that plays only while your phone is face-down and stops the moment you lift it. Brown noise, rain, forest sounds, or white noise β€” all bundled, no streaming required. FlipTimer Pro unlocks unlimited session duration, all ambient sounds, the widget, full history, and the Apple Watch app. Privacy Policy: https://www.ybarandogan.com/projects/fliptimer/privacy Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula

Track time spent studying, creating and reading with Start and Stop. Time Log is a simple activity tracker for understanding how you spend your own time. START WITH AN ACTIVITY NAME Add an activity with just a name. Tap Start to save its starting time and see the elapsed time. Switching to another activity ends the current session and starts the next at the same instant. Only one activity runs at a time. DAILY AND WEEKLY TOTALS ON HOME See today’s total and the current week, starting Monday, without opening a separate dashboard. Tap an activity to review its totals and history. Sessions crossing midnight are split across the days they overlap. ADD AND CORRECT PAST SESSIONS Forgot to record a session? Add it in History. Edit start and end times, change the activity or delete a record. Overlapping sessions are rejected to avoid double counting. Archive activities while keeping their history. RESTORE WHEN YOU RETURN Time includes screen lock, app closure and device restarts until you stop. When you return, elapsed time is calculated from the saved starting time. A reminder appears for long sessions so you can check for a forgotten stop. Your activity records stay on your device. No account or proprietary server sync. Free to use with a small banner ad. Recording works even when ads are unavailable. See the privacy policy for advertising SDK data processing. Available in English, Japanese, Korean, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Italian and Brazilian Portuguese. Dark mode follows your device setting. Daily totals use the device’s current time zone. Manual clock changes cannot always be detected. OS backup restoration is not guaranteed.
