Block apps for a set duration. Spin the dial, pick 15 to 90 minutes, and start focusing. When time's up, apps return automatically — no need to unlock them manually.
Open Timize, tap Timer, and spin the circular dial to choose a duration (5 to 90 minutes). Tap Start and your selected app groups are immediately blocked.
A countdown runs in the app and in the home screen widget. When time's up, apps automatically return — no manual unlock required.
Perfect For
Deep work sessions: 45–90 minutes of uninterrupted focus
Quick tasks: 15–30 minutes to finish a report, email, or assignment
Pomodoro technique: 25-minute blocks with 5-minute breaks
Meals and family time: 30–60 minutes without phone distractions
Why Use a Timer Instead of Manual Blocking?
With manual on/off switches, you have to remember to turn blocking back off — and you might unlock apps early "just to check something." Timers remove that temptation by automating both the start and end.
Combine with Schedules and Location
Timer for ad-hoc focus: Use schedules for recurring blocks (e.g., work hours), and the timer for one-off sessions ("I need 45 minutes of focus right now")
Timer + Location: Start a timer when you arrive at the library — apps stay blocked even if you step outside briefly
