Your Move is a beautiful, no-fuss turn timer for board games — a chess clock for 2 to 10 players. Give everyone their own countdown, keep game night moving, and never argue about whose turn it is again. No accounts. No sign-up. No internet required. Just open it and play. HOW IT WORKS Each player gets their own region of the screen showing their remaining time. Tap your area to start your turn, tap again to pass to the next player. Whoever's active counts down — everyone else is frozen. It's the classic chess-clock experience, built for the whole table. BUILT FOR THE TABLE • 2–10 players, each with a name, color, and clock • Text rotates to face every seat, so players on all sides read their own timer right-side up • Adaptive layout fills the screen and re-divides instantly when you rotate the device or add a player • Big, legible digits you can read across the table PLAY IT YOUR WAY • Turn order: clockwise, counterclockwise, custom drag-to-reorder, or free-for-all • Add extra time each turn (increment) and a delay before the clock starts • Out of time? An alarm sounds and the clock keeps counting into the negative — no one gets eliminated • Give more time, add or remove a player, change the order, or undo a mistap — all mid-game NEVER LOSE A GAME • Every move auto-saves, so you can close the app and pick up exactly where you left off • Save multiple games and reload them anytime • Duplicate a setup to reuse your favorite configuration for the next game night MAKE IT YOURS • Light, dark, and colorful themes • Custom accent colors and a color for every player • Adjustable font sizes • Turn-switch clicks, time-out alarms with selectable sounds, and haptics — all with a volume knob and toggles Free to play with a single ad on launch. Prefer none? A one-time "Remove Ads" purchase turns them off for good. Perfect for strategy games, party games, tournaments, speed rounds, and anyone who wants to keep game night fair and fast. Grab your friends. It's Your Move.

About

Turnwise

Features
Read full description

Turnwise is a turn clock for tables of 2–8 players — built for Commander and other Magic: The Gathering formats, trading card games, and board games where turns run long and someone always asks "whose turn is it?" Put one phone or tablet in the middle of the table. Every player gets a tile; a tap passes the turn on. The active player's clock is visible to everyone, and slow turns become a number instead of a vague feeling. THREE WAYS TO PLAY Classic — clocks count up, so you see where the time went: per turn, per round, per player, for the whole game. Add an optional turn limit, fixed (say one minute) or growing round by round as the game gets heavier. When time runs out the clock flags and blinks — the table decides what happens, never the app. Chess Clock — for two players: bullet, blitz and rapid presets in chess notation (1+0, 3+2, 5+3, 15+10 …), fully adjustable time and increment, four increment styles (Fischer before/after, Bronstein, simple delay) and an optional handicap so uneven pairings stay interesting. Hourglass — one pool of time between two players: while you think, your clock falls and your opponent's rises. Slow play arms your opponent. MADE FOR REAL TABLES • Seat map: arrange players the way you actually sit; pick who starts without anyone switching chairs • Time warning: a beep and a buzz before a turn runs out — at a fixed mark or a share of the turn • Optional elimination on timeout in classic games — always a question, never an automatism • Pause, undo a pass, eliminate players, keep playing until a winner stands • Game timeline and stats: every turn's duration, round totals, awards at the end • Timing is wall-clock based — backgrounding the app never loses a second AND NOTHING ELSE Turnwise is completely free and works entirely offline. No account, no ads, no tracking, no subscription — nothing is locked. If it improves your game nights, there's a voluntary tip jar; tipping changes nothing in the app. English, German, French, Spanish. Light and dark mode. iPhone and iPad.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Turnwise at none against Your Move's shown. Your Move's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
