About

Cycle Timers

Features
Read full description

Set a timer for anything that repeats — and forget about forgetting. Free to start. Cycle Pro is an optional one-time in-app purchase — no subscription. Cycle turns recurring household chores into countdown rings: food that expires in 3 days, the cat litter every 4 days, the sheets every 2 weeks. Each timer fills a ring that slowly drains from green to yellow to orange — and turns red when it’s overdue. One glance tells you what’s fine, what’s coming, and what’s due. One tap marks it done and restarts the cycle — right from your Home Screen widget, without opening the app. WIDGET-FIRST • Interactive Home Screen widgets: tap a ring to mark it done, no app launch • Choose exactly which timers each widget shows • Lock Screen widgets keep your most urgent timers one glance away (Cycle Pro) • The Small widget is free; Medium and Large widgets, plus Extra Large on iPad, come with Cycle Pro EFFORTLESS • Start from household templates: Kitchen, Cleaning, Pets, Bathroom, Home • Or create your own in seconds: name, icon, interval, done • Undo an accidental restart with one tap • Backdate a timer when you actually did it yesterday • Works on iPhone and iPad REASSURING, NOT NAGGING • Calm green for most of a cycle; warm colors only when it matters • One local notification when something comes due, with a Mark Done button right on it • Optional app badge showing the overdue count • Siri and Shortcuts: say “Mark cat litter done in Cycle” PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no tracking • Your timers stay on your device and are never sent to us • Cycle uses RevenueCat only to count purchases and how the Cycle Pro screen is used (an anonymous ID and your App Store purchases), and never to track you FREE TO START • Free: up to 4 timers and one Small Home Screen widget • Cycle Pro is an optional one-time in-app purchase: unlimited timers, Medium and Large widgets (plus Extra Large on iPad), and Lock Screen widgets • Cycle Pro also unlocks Cycle Wrapped, your year in Cycle: a year-end recap you can share • Cycle Pro also lets you message the developer straight from Settings • No subscription, no recurring charges
