30minTimer: Hourly Chime
Hear the time, every half hour
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Ever look up and realize three hours vanished into one task? This app fixes that with a simple chime.
Your iPhone chimes at the minutes you choose, like :00 and :30 every hour, so you can feel time passing without checking the clock. Chimes arrive as notifications, even when the app is closed.
