Timer alerts, just for your ears. EarTimer is a timer app for iPhone that plays timer sounds through connected Bluetooth earphones. It is designed for situations where you do not want sound to play through your iPhone’s built-in speaker. Made for moments like these • An early start while your family sleeps It is still dark, and everyone around you is asleep. Set EarTimer before an early shift or morning appointment and receive the timer sound through your earphones without filling the room with noise. • A quick nap beside a sleeping baby The baby has finally fallen asleep, and you have time for a short rest. EarTimer lets you know when it is time to get up without playing the timer sound aloud in the room. • Mornings in hotels and shared rooms You are traveling with friends or staying in a shared room, but you need to get ready before everyone else. EarTimer helps you wake up without a timer sound disturbing the people around you. • Naps on trains and planes Start a timer for your stop or expected arrival time, then rest during the journey. The timer sound plays through your earphones instead of disturbing the carriage or cabin. • Quiet breaks in libraries and shared spaces Take a short break or nap, then return to your work quietly. EarTimer keeps the surrounding space peaceful while delivering the timer sound only to you. Key Features • Set timers in hours, minutes, and seconds • Two timer sounds • Test external-audio playback before starting; when no external output is connected, the test uses vibration instead • Pause, resume, or cancel a running timer • On supported devices, control the timer from Live Activities on the Lock Screen or Dynamic Island Earphone-first playback EarTimer plays the selected timer sound only while an external audio output is connected. If your earphones disconnect, the app will not switch the timer sound to the iPhone’s built-in speaker. Important Information For reliable playback through your earphones, do not force-quit EarTimer. Audio may be interrupted by phone calls, Siri, other audio apps, Bluetooth reconnection, device restarts, or iOS system conditions. Requires an iPhone running iOS 26.0 or later.
