Interleaving Reading Timer

Read several books in rotation, on a timer.

Setup screen: number of books, switch interval, and start button

Overview

Interleaving Reading Timer helps you alternate between several books in one sitting. Register the books you are reading, set how often to switch, and the app signals each change — including while the screen is off.

Built around interleaving, a study approach where alternating between different material can aid retention. Useful when your focus fades partway through a single book.
