Zero In: Shared Group Timer

Grebenniki Farm

About this app

Zero In is a shared timer for your family, team or crew. Start a countdown on your phone, and everyone in your team sees it tick down on theirs. When time's up, everyone gets the alarm, wherever they are.

It started with a batch of bread dough. The timer was set at home, the baker was out, and nobody at home knew the dough was ready. Zero In fixes that. It's a group timer for anything where more than one person needs to know when time's up: rising dough, drying paint, a workout, the laundry, a parking meter, a shift change.

HOW IT WORKS
• Make a team and invite people with a link. They open it, and they're in.
• Save timers such as "Dough" or "Second coat", private or shared with a team.
• Start a run for just you, the whole team, or some of it. Everyone in the run sees the same countdown.
• Watch the countdown on your lock screen while it runs.
• When the run ends, everyone in it gets a "Time's up" alarm.
• Need something quick? Start a one-off timer right from Home.
• See every finished run in History, filtered by team, timer or sequence.

MADE FOR GROUPS
• Anyone in a run can pause, resume or cancel it, and the others get a notification saying who did it.
• Run several timers at once, and choose who is in each run.
• Sequences chain timed steps with tasks in between. Someone taps "On It", then Done, and the next step starts.
• Hand a team to someone else with Make owner.

THE ALARM
• Zero In shows a full-screen alarm, even on the lock screen, until you tap Stop.
• Pick one of Zero In's alarm sounds, or choose a phone alarm sound.
• Quiet alarms: switch off ringing for an hour or until morning, and still get the notification.
• Mute a timer whenever you don't need its alerts.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No sign-up: no email, no phone number, no password. Just pick a name.
• Optionally save your account with Google to keep it on a new phone.
• Only people you invite can join your team. Owners approve returning members and can remove anyone.
• Hide timer names on your lock screen.
• Block or report anyone, right in the app.
• No ads and no tracking.

PLEASE NOTE
Alerts travel over the internet and can arrive late or not at all, for example when a phone is offline or in battery saver. Don't use Zero In for emergencies, medical timing or anything where a missed alert could cause harm.
