YAT Free is a timer app designed to make it fast and easy to create customized timed routines for any purpose. YAT Free has a clean, intuitive, and generalized design, making it a versitile app for multiple uses. Create timed routines for exercise, yoga, cooking, presentations, massage, art modelling, meditation, gaming - whatever your needs happen to be. Routines consist of any number of steps, each of which includes any number of repetitions. "Break" steps divide a routine into sections, where each section is started manually by pressing the "Start" button when you are ready. YAT Free includes a stopwatch with a novel "Repeated Trials Mode" option, which is designed for timing something multiple times and automatically calculating the average (for a more accurate or representative result). For further utility, YAT Free also includes a clock with large digits (for easy reading at a distance) and an optional ticking sound. YAT Free Features: - can (optionally) read step titles aloud at the beginning of each step - configurable time for transitioning between steps - choose color and fonts to suit your taste - 42 alert sounds to choose from - multiple vibration patterns to choose from - light and dark themes, to fit the room lighting - runs on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch (iOS 9.0+) - portrait and landscape support A paid version of YAT is also available, if you would prefer an ad-free experience or you wish to support the developer..

ClocksOn turns any spare iPhone or iPad into a calm, glanceable bedside clock. Full-screen, chrome-free clock face that automatically sizes itself to fill your display — readable from across the room, day or night. ADAPTIVE BRIGHTNESS The screen reads the light in your room and eases itself down as the room darkens, so it's never blinding at 2am and never washed out at noon. Prefer full control? Switch to manual brightness any time. LIGHT, DARK, OR SYSTEM THEME Pick a theme or let ClocksOn follow your device's setting. Your choice is remembered across launches. ORIENTATION LOCK Lock the clock to portrait or landscape, or let it follow the device automatically — useful when mounting an iPhone or iPad on a nightstand or wall dock. NO CLUTTER No accounts, no ads, no notifications competing for attention. Just the time, presented cleanly. Works beautifully on iPhone and iPad — set a spare device on your nightstand, dock, or desk and leave the clock on overnight.
