Timer
Design Intent: A timer you type. No app switch, and the note you were working on is still there when it rings.
Starting a timer
- Type
timer 5on the first line and press Return for a five-minute countdown.timer 3:30also works, as does5:30typed on its own line. A unit says what the number is:timer 30s,timer 12.5m,timer 2h,timer 1h30m.timer 9amortimer 11pcounts down to that time of day instead. timer 25 5starts a pomodoro: 25 minutes of work, then a 5-minute break.- The Timer keyboard has minute presets, two pomodoro presets (25 · 5, 50 · 10) and Pause, Resume and Stop. The Timer and Start pomo widgets start one from the home screen.
While it runs
- A pill shows the time left with a Stop timer button (it asks "Stop Timer" first unless you chose Always Stop Without Asking). The Timer widget ticks live on the home and lock screens.
- The timer is also a Live Activity: it counts down in the Dynamic Island while you use other apps (tap it to open Antinote, hold it for Pause and Stop buttons) and on the lock screen, in your theme's colours. A pomodoro shows which phase it is in, and a countdown that ends while Antinote is closed says "Time's up" until you come back. Turn it off under Settings › Antinote › Live Activities if you would rather not see it.
- When it finishes, a full-screen alert appears. For a pomodoro it shows the break remaining, with Sneak a peek, End Pomodoro and a No-Peek Streak that counts the breaks you left alone.
