Maximize Your Reading Focus with a Reading Timer

Distractions are everywhere, and staying focused while reading can be tough. Whether you’re studying or simply enjoying a novel, a Reading Timer can help you stay present, avoid interruptions, and build a consistent routine.

Why use a reading timer?

A timer isn’t just about recording minutes, it’s about creating the right mindset for reading. With one running, you:

• Commit to a block of focused reading time.
• Avoid multitasking and reduce the temptation to check notifications.
• Find it easier to immerse yourself fully in the story or subject.

Even short sessions of 15–20 minutes become more effective when you know the clock is ticking.

How Book Tracker makes it seamless

The Reading Timer in Book Tracker is designed for readers who want to make every session count:

• Automatic logging: the app records exactly how long you’ve read, so you can review your progress later.
• Live Activity: keep the timer visible on your Lock Screen or Dynamic Island without reopening the app.
• Statistics that matter: see how much time you’ve read today, this week, or this month, and spot patterns in your habits.
• Widgets for quick access: start the timer or check your daily progress right from your Home Screen.

Build a daily reading habit

Using the timer regularly helps you carve out a structured routine. Just 20 minutes a day quickly adds up, making it easier to finish more books and stay consistent with your goals.

Over time, you’ll not only strengthen your focus but also gain valuable insights into how and when you read best.
