Nixie Tube Timer vs FlipMatic

Down to 30 seconds and need longer? Tap +1m and the clock reads 1:30, still running. Photorealistic nixie tubes, eight color themes, fully offline, nothing tracked. A TIMER YOU ACTUALLY WANT TO LOOK AT This is a countdown built around photorealistic nixie-tube digits. Dial in hours, minutes and seconds, hit Start, and watch the tubes glow down one digit at a time — a focus sprint, a kid's timeout, a pot on the stove. The screen stays awake while it runs. STRETCH A TIMER THAT'S ALREADY RUNNING This is the part other timers don't do. You set one minute. It counts down to thirty seconds and you realize you need longer. Tap +1m and the clock reads 1:30 and keeps going — still running, never stopped, never reset, nothing to start over. EIGHT COLOR SCHEMES Neon Green, Cyber Blue, Amber Glow, Crimson Red, Deep Purple, Hot Pink, Sunny Yellow and Rainbow. Switch instantly, no restart. A Full Glow style spreads the aura across the whole screen if you want more of it. SOUND ON YOUR TERMS Six tick sounds — Classic, Soft, Digital, Woodblock, Mechanical, Pendulum — synthesized on the fly and locked in step with the digits. Four alarms: Radar, Beacon, Chime, Pulse. Import your own audio file as a custom alarm, or set either to None for silence. Ticks and alarm have their own volume sliders. THE BUTTONS ARE YOURS The amounts you add are the ones you choose — +30s, +1m, +5m, +25m, whatever your day actually uses. Nothing is preset for you; press and hold to remove one. They sit right under the countdown while it runs, one tap from the tubes. Durations you run often come back as one-tap shortcuts too. BUILT TO BE QUICK - Timers from a few seconds up to 99:59:59 - Timed against the clock, so it stays accurate instead of drifting - Pause, resume, restart, cancel — or stretch the countdown without pausing it - Haptic feedback on start, on tap, and at zero - A local notification when the timer ends, even if you have left the app PRIVACY, PROPERLY No accounts, no ads, no analytics, no tracking, no data collection of any kind. The app never sends anything anywhere. Everything you set stays on your device. Free. iPhone, iOS 17 and later.

FlipMatic turns your iPhone, iPad or Mac into a flip clock, the kind that once clattered on airport departure boards and in old train stations. Every minute, the flaps turn over one by one. A CLOCK THAT FILLS THE SCREEN • Big, clear digits that fill any screen, upright or sideways • 12- or 24-hour time, optional seconds, and the date on its own strip • Burn-in protection: a slow drift, night dimming and idle dimming • Keep the screen awake while the clock is showing THE BOARD • Every few minutes the clock turns into a message board • Put your own words on it, or let it show built-in phrases • FlipMatic speaks 43 languages, on the menus and on the board itself REMINDERS AND A TIMER • Reminders flip onto the board at the time you choose, with a soft chime: every day, on weekdays, on the days you pick, or just once • When FlipMatic is in the background, reminders arrive as notifications, and can ring through Focus if you allow it • A countdown timer on the clock's own flaps, from 1 to 99 minutes THEMES • Eight built-in looks: Classic, Paper, Vintage, Amber, Green, Pink, Rose and Blue • More themes for free at flipmatic.app, from cherry blossoms to comic books to a Halloween graveyard, added to your library with a free account • Mark favorites and let FlipMatic rotate them for you WEATHER • Optional: the local temperature on the strip, from the Norwegian Meteorological Institute (MET Norway) • Type a city, or let FlipMatic use your location, only while Weather is on MADE TO BE LEFT ON • No ads, and no account needed for the clock, the board, reminders or the timer • Pseudonymous usage statistics (a random ID, no name, email or location) help us improve FlipMatic.
