FlipTimer — play only as much as you've studied
Using a stopwatch for study time and a separate timer for breaks?
FlipTimer combines both into one "earn and spend" timer.
How it works
▶ Tap [+] when you start studying. Time builds up.
▶ Tap [-] when you take a break. Your saved time counts down.
▶ When it hits zero, we'll let you know. Break's over!
The time you've banked is the break time you can spend.
Want to play more? Study more and earn it.
Key features
• Two-way timer: one clock that counts up (earn) and down (spend)
• Zero alert: a popup when your earned time runs out — keep going or stop, your choice
• Minus mode: borrow break time in advance and it shows as negative — pay it back by studying more
• x2 / ÷2: double or halve your earned time to make your own reward rules
(e.g. "weekend study earns double", "YouTube costs double time")
• Keep screen on: prop it up on your desk and check in real time
• Runs in the background: time stays accurate even when you leave the app
• Available in English / Korean / Japanese
Perfect for
• Students struggling to balance study time and break time
• Anyone whose "just 30 minutes of rest" turns into 3 hours
• People tired of switching between a stopwatch app and a timer app
• Anyone who wants to build study habits with their own reward rules
A note from the developer
I wanted to play only as much as I studied, searched everywhere for an app like this, and couldn't find one — so I built it myself.
I use it every day, so I'll keep fixing anything that feels rough.
