Timer for ADHD: FlipTimer
Flip to start, lift to stop.
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Put your phone face-down. Focus. Pick it up when you're done. We turn that instinct into a real focus session — no buttons, no screens, just the gesture you already make.
The focus timer that runs when your phone is upside down.
FlipTimer uses your phone's motion sensor to detect one thing: is the screen facing down? If yes, you're focusing. When you flip it back up, the session pauses. It's the most physical, intuitive focus timer ever made.
You already put your phone face-down when you want to concentrate. You already know the gesture. FlipTimer just makes it count.
— HOW IT WORKS —
1. Set your target time (or leave it on free run)
2. Flip your phone face-down on your desk
3. FlipTimer starts automatically — screen dims to black
4. Lift your phone when you're done or need a break
5. Your session is logged
No buttons to press during a session. No screen to look at. No willpower required.
— FEATURES —

· Weekly chart: your total focus time per day
· Streak counter: days in a row with at least one session
· Apple Watch companion: start and stop from your wrist

— DESIGNED FOR —
Deep work sessions. Homework time. Reading. Writing. Cooking. Board game turns. Anything where putting the phone down is already the goal.
Parents love it for kids: "flip it when you start homework." The phone face-down is the rule and the timer in one.
— THE RECOVERY MOMENT —
When you pick up your phone after a long session, FlipTimer doesn't just show you a number. It gives you a brief, honest response: "28 minutes. Great focus." Then it gets out of the way.
— AMBIENT SOUNDS —
Choose a background sound that plays only while your phone is face-down and stops the moment you lift it. Brown noise, rain, forest sounds, or white noise — all bundled, no streaming required.
FlipTimer Pro unlocks unlimited session duration, all ambient sounds, the widget, full history, and the Apple Watch app.
