About Tip: Hourglass Focus Timer

Tip turns your phone into an hourglass. There is no start button: flip your phone upside down and the sand begins to fall. It is a focus timer you can feel, not another number counting down on a screen.

HOW IT WORKS
• Flip to start. Turn your phone over and the sand timer begins.
• Lay flat to pause. Put the phone face up and the sand stops mid-air.
• Shake to reset. A gentle shake pours the sand back to the top. Tip asks first if a glass is running.
• Prefer buttons? Turn on tap controls and start or pause without tilting.

PICK YOUR GLASS
Choose a 5, 15, 25, 45 or 60 minute hourglass, or set a custom time. Use a 25 minute glass for a classic Pomodoro session, a short one for a quick break, or a long one for deep work.

FOR FOCUS, STUDY AND WORK
• Study timer for revision, homework and exams
• Pomodoro timer for work sprints and breaks
• Visual timer that shows time passing at a glance
• Calm countdown for reading, writing, cooking or meditation

COLLECT GLASSES
Every finished session brings a new hourglass closer. Unlock new glasses and sand colours as you build the habit.

SEE YOUR WEEK
Your history shows the sand you have gathered each day, so you can see when you focus best.

MADE TO FEEL REAL
• Physical sand that falls, settles and freezes
• Optional sand sound and a soft chime when the last grain falls
• Haptics you can tune
• Dark and light themes
• Keep the screen on while a glass is running

A focus timer, sand timer and visual countdown in one quiet app. Flip it, focus, let it run.
