24 Hours turns your day into a budget. Give each goal its share of the 24 hours (sleep 8, work 6, exercise 1), press Start when you begin it, and watch its countdown. One timer runs at a time, so an hour spent on one goal comes out of the day. The ring on the home screen shows each goal's share of the day and what is left. HOW A DAY WORKS • Pick a starter plan (Balanced Day, Workday, Student, Fitness Reset, Weekend, Deep Work) or add your own goals. • Press Start on a goal to begin its countdown, and Pause to stop it. The countdown keeps running when the app is closed or the phone is locked. • At your day start (midnight unless you pick another time in Settings) the day is saved to history and daily goals start full again. With a midnight start, an overnight goal like Sleep, started from 6 pm and on the next day's schedule, counts on the day you wake. FREE • Up to 10 goals, each on the weekdays you choose • Weekly goals, such as 8 hours a week for a language: they count up time from any day of the week. Countdowns, the daily reset and the goal finished alert apply to daily goals • The running countdown on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets with today's hours left, and a Shortcut to start today's goal • Pause the running goal from a Home Screen widget, or a running daily goal from the rectangular Lock Screen widget (iOS 17 and later) • Log time you already spent, including time that crossed midnight • An alert when a running goal reaches its time (off until you turn it on) • Trends for the last 30 days, and edits to any of the last 90 days • A picture of your day to share, and your history as CSV (copied to the clipboard) • A backup file of your goals and history that you save and restore yourself • Navy, Indigo and AMOLED Black themes, each in light and dark SUPPORTER, ONE PAYMENT • Unlimited goals • One-time goals for a single date • 90-day Trends, custom ranges, and weekday and tag breakdowns • 6 more color themes • Backup to your own Google Drive, by hand or automatically There is no subscription, and the free app keeps working if you never buy it.
