"Alternate Timer" is a simple timer application that repeats and alternates between "Focus Time" and "Relax Time" helping you to maximize work efficiency.
For example, you can set Focus Time for 50 minutes and Relax Time for 10 minutes, and Alternate Timer will countdown the time and let you know when its time to work, when its time to relax, and when its time to get back to work again.

Features

*Set to any time you want
Focus Time and Relax Time can be set in minute intervals giving you the freedom to set any time you want. You can use popular time management techniques like the Pomodoro Technique or the 48:12 technique or the (10+2)*5 technique.

*No-hassle repeat and alternate function
Once started, Alternate Timer will repeat and alternate between Focus Time and Relax Time until you press the stop button, letting you concentrate on the task at hand.

*No worries with the reminder function
You can also use the reminder function to alert you from one to five minutes before Relax Time is over. The application runs in the background so you can use your iPhone to check your mail and surf the Internet and not worry if your break has run over into your Focus Time. You can focus on relaxing during your Relax Time.
