Set it once, everyone alerts together. Share a countdown link — no account needed for them, no subscription for you.
Ever set a timer, then wanted someone else to keep track with you? Shared Timer turns a single countdown into something everyone can experience together. I built this out of frustration, because when I wanted someone else to keep track of something, I'd have to set the alarm on someone else's phone.
Set a timer, tap Share, and send the link. Everyone who opens it sees the same countdown and gets the same alarm. There's no sign-ups, no accounts creation. Tap the link and they're in.
WHY PEOPLE USE IT
- Kitchen coordination: "dinner's out at 6:15," and every phone in the house knows it
- Game nights & watch parties: sync the start time so nobody misses kickoff
- Workouts & study sessions: start an interval together, even in different rooms, or from across the country.
- Kids & chores: "screen time ends at 6," backed by an alarm instead of an argument
- Meetings & calls: a countdown to "go time" the whole group can see
- Long distance: "call me the second this hits zero"
BUILT THE WAY A TIMER SHOULD WORK
- Create a timer by duration or by picking an exact time
- Share it instantly through Messages or any app you already use
- Every recipient's alert fires at the same absolute moment even if they're offline or with the app closed
- Only the creator can edit or cancel a timer; everyone else just watches it count down
- Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, plus a Live Activity in the Dynamic Island
- Nine colors to keep multiple timers straight at a glance
- Full dark mode support
SIMPLE, HONEST PRICING
Everyone's tired of subscriptions and ads. Creating, receiving, and following timers is always free. Once you start sharing, your first 3 shared timers are free, and after that, one small one-time purchase unlocks unlimited timer forever! This price helps support my coffee habit!
Shared Timer doesn't ask for your name, your email, or an account. It just keeps everyone on the same clock
