Read full description

Drawn Timers is the timer app that works the way your brain does. Instead of typing a label, you sketch it. Draw a pizza, a coffee cup, a dumbbell โ€“ and Drawn turns your sketch into a timer. It's faster, more fun, and way more memorable than anything you've typed before. That's especially useful for timers you use again and again. Your doodles stick in your memory in a way that "Timer 1" or "Pasta" never will. Set it once, recognize it instantly next time. Run multiple timers at the same time, each with its own drawing. Get notified with sound and haptics when your time is up โ€“ so you never miss a moment. Whether you're cooking, working out, studying, or just need a reminder, Drawn Timers makes it feel less like a chore and more like play. Features: - Sketch to create timers โ€“ no typing needed - Recurring timers you'll actually recognize - Run multiple timers simultaneously - Sound and haptic alerts when time's up - Lock screen- & dynamic Island widget to keep timers in view

About

ClocksOn

Read full description

ClocksOn turns any spare iPhone or iPad into a calm, glanceable bedside clock. Full-screen, chrome-free clock face that automatically sizes itself to fill your display โ€” readable from across the room, day or night. ADAPTIVE BRIGHTNESS The screen reads the light in your room and eases itself down as the room darkens, so it's never blinding at 2am and never washed out at noon. Prefer full control? Switch to manual brightness any time. LIGHT, DARK, OR SYSTEM THEME Pick a theme or let ClocksOn follow your device's setting. Your choice is remembered across launches. ORIENTATION LOCK Lock the clock to portrait or landscape, or let it follow the device automatically โ€” useful when mounting an iPhone or iPad on a nightstand or wall dock. NO CLUTTER No accounts, no ads, no notifications competing for attention. Just the time, presented cleanly. Works beautifully on iPhone and iPad โ€” set a spare device on your nightstand, dock, or desk and leave the clock on overnight.
