Combat shift work disruption with personalized advice based on the latest circadian science.
This groundbreaking app empowers shift workers to optimize their sleep, performance, health, and quality of life with science-based guidance developed by world-renowned circadian scientists.
Fast Company: “Congratulations Timeshifter on helping to change the world.”
Timeshifter — Shift Work Edition — was developed to help shift workers reduce the underlying problem of circadian and sleep disruption inherent in shift work. With Timeshifter, you will receive highly personalized advice based on your sleep pattern, chronotype, work schedule, and personal preferences.
SHIFT WORK MYTHS VS. CIRCADIAN SCIENCE
Shift workers face a serious biological challenge: misalignment between their internal circadian rhythms and their work schedules. This circadian disruption leads to insomnia, excessive sleepiness, poor performance, and increased long-term health risks.
Popular advice — like drinking more coffee, using supplements, or simply “getting more rest” — misses the mark. These approaches don’t address the root cause: your circadian misalignment.
It’s time to replace the myths with real science.
Generic tips won’t solve circadian disruption. Only evidence-based interventions that "reset" your circadian rhythms and manage circadian timing can effectively reduce the negative effects of shift work.
THE REAL SCIENCE OF SHIFT WORK
// In your brain, a circadian clock regulates the rhythm of your day.
// Shift work causes your sleep and other behaviors to occur at biologically inappropriate times, resulting in fatigue, poor sleep, and long-term health risks.
// Light is the most powerful cue for resetting your circadian clock. The correct timing of light exposure and light avoidance is the foundation of any circadian intervention to improve alertness and sleep quality. If your timing is off, it can make things worse.
WHY SHIFT WORKERS LOVE TIMESHIFTER
// Based on the latest sleep and circadian science
// Optimizes your sleep, alertness, and performance
// Reduces the negative effects of shift work on productivity, health, and quality of life
Using Timeshifter is as simple as taking small actions at specific times.

I’m very much looking forward to this app being up and running

Had the app on my phone for like 2 years, have emailed a couple of times asking when they think it’ll be up a running. It doesn’t seem like there’s been much movement in that time unfortunately.

Timed Training
I had a 4 day workshop but it was from midnight-8:00 am and my regular schedule of sleep is from 8:00 pm -5:00 am. I used the app to make this Shift and it was perfect. I was able to be awake and alert and still get in 8 hours of sleep. I followed the recommendations for when to get light, drink caffeine and sleep. Thanks Timeshifter Work for making that possible.
Waste of time

Shift worker waiting for access code
Frustrated as..
I have heard good things about this app for shift workers like myself. I emailed back in August and have not heard anything. Will delete soon.
