Travelers are constantly bombarded with bad advice from non-experts and false product claims, resulting in many persistent misconceptions about jet lag and how to alleviate it.

It's time to replace the myths with real circadian science:

In your brain, you have a 24-hour circadian clock that regulates nearly all of your biological functions. Jet lag is caused when your sleep/wake and light/dark cycle shift too quickly for your circadian clock to keep up. The only way to reduce jet lag quickly is by shifting your circadian clock to the new time zone.

Light is the most important time cue for “shifting” your circadian clock. Light exposure and avoidance, at the right time, will significantly accelerate your adaptation. Seeing or avoiding light at the wrong time — as often recommended by non-experts — will shift your circadian clock the wrong way making your jet lag worse.

Timeshifter will help you reduce jet lag by addressing the underlying cause – the disruption of your circadian clock – as well as alleviate the disruptive symptoms, such as insomnia, sleepiness and digestive discomfort.

Quick Turnaround®:

Timeshifter’s benefits are well established. Based on ~130,000 post-flight surveys, 96.4% of the travelers who followed Timeshifter's advice did not struggle with severe or very severe jet lag. When NOT following the advice, there was a 6.2x increase in severe or very severe jet lag, and a 14.1x increase in very severe jet lag.

Ratings and reviews

I had terrible jetlag after an 11 hour flight. After my pounding headache went away, I looked for an app to make the trip back easier. I gave Timeshifter a try. Because, why not? Had to be better than the other option. I followed the plan they set up for me and I was just a little tired when I got back. Nowhere near the squeezing vice from earlier. Anytime friends are traveling over multiple time zones, I recommend this app!

We traveled from the US to Scotland with three kids last week for spring break. My husband and I each followed our own plans on the app, and we loosely had the kids follow the same plan but with more sleep time. None of us suffered from jet lag! It was incredible, and we will definitely be using this app for every international trip we have in the future. It's a game changer, and I have already told so many people about our experience.

This app is exceptional for all travelers. Nothing is worse than spending thousands on a trip internationally only to waste multiple days feeling cloudy, groggy, and tired. I have struggled with jet lag previously, both traveling to and from a country. In addition, flight changes or delays frequently disrupt any plan I previously made. This app has worked exceptionally well for me. My most recent trip involved a cancelled flight on the way over and delay on the way back. Recovered in no time.
