Their day, running beside yours.

The people you care about live on other clocks. TimeNest puts their day on the same screen as yours — so you can see, without doing the arithmetic, whether right now is a decent hour where they are.

TimeNest is a free iPhone app that draws up to five cities as parallel timelines beside your own day, so you can see at a glance whether it is a reasonable hour where someone is.

  1. Time travel

    Drag the dial to any hour of any day. Every city, every event and every sunrise moves with it — then let go, and it returns to now.

  2. Live Activity

    Turn on Follow Today and the running event sits in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen until the day is done. It ends itself.

  3. Widgets

    Nine widgets across the Home and Lock Screen — a weekly timetable, the day as a ring, a three-city list, a single line above the clock.

  4. Week

    Google Calendar, Outlook and Apple Calendar are read in place — nothing is copied or moved. Month, week and day are the same data at three distances.

  5. Today

    Blocks fade as they pass, so a glance tells you how far into the day you are. Push a running event and only the time left moves to tomorrow.

  6. The record

    A sticker closes each day, and a briefing can arrive at an hour you choose. Nothing is scored and nothing is a streak.

Questions

Does the other person need to install TimeNest?

No. TimeNest requires nothing from the other person — you add a city, not a person. They never install anything, never receive a request, and never know about it.

My iPhone already has a World Clock. What is different here?

Apple’s World Clock shows four numbers; TimeNest shows four days. Each city you follow becomes a horizontal lane shaded for sleep and daylight, so you can see where their night sits inside your afternoon and which hours everyone happens to be awake. TimeNest also puts a city on the lock screen.

Is TimeNest free?

TimeNest is free. There is no paid tier, no ads, and no account is required to start. It needs iOS 15 or later.

Which lock screen widgets does TimeNest have?

Three: a 24-hour dial that draws one city’s whole day around a circle, a three-city list with local times, and a single-line clock. Each widget can be set to a different city.

What is the TimeNest daily briefing?

The daily briefing is a short note TimeNest writes at an hour you choose — how many plans and tasks the day holds, when your evening opens up, and the weather where you actually are. It stays off until you turn it on, and past briefings are saved so you can read them back.

What happens to my calendar data?

TimeNest reads Google, Outlook and Apple Calendar and draws those events alongside your own blocks. It does not copy or modify them, and you can switch it off at any time. See the privacy policy.

How many cities can I follow in TimeNest?

Up to five cities at once on the timeline. Each lock screen widget can be set to a different city.

Is there an Android version of TimeNest?

No. TimeNest is available for iPhone only. There is no Android version.
