Designed for molecular and cellular biologists who juggle incubations, spins and washes across several experiments.
Protocols, step by step
Every protocol becomes a clear sequence of timer-tasks, numbered in order, so you always know what's next and never lose your place.
Parallel timers
Run as many timer-tasks in parallel as you need, across all your experiments. Each one shows how much time is left at a glance.
Notifications
Instead of a room full of beeping timers, you get a subtle notification on your phone when each timer-task is done.
Search
Find the timer-tasks and protocols you need in seconds, even mid-experiment.
Curated library
Start from curated timer-tasks for well-known protocols from 10x Genomics, Qiagen, NEB and more, or build your own.
Scientific Timer doesn't collect any data. There's no account, no analytics, no ads and no tracking. Your protocols and timers never leave your iPhone.
