Description

Create highly personalized jet lag plans based on your chronotype, sleep pattern, itinerary, and personal preferences. // Condé Nast Traveler: “Say goodbye to jet lag” // The Wall Street Journal: "Indispensable" // Travel + Leisure: “Game-changer” // New York Times: “The travel industry’s new fix for jet lag” // CNBC: "Saves time and money" // WIRED: "Will help reset your [circadian] clock” // Lonely Planet: "Incredible" // Prevention: “One of the best apps according to doctors” Travelers are constantly bombarded with misguided anecdotal advice from non-experts on how to alleviate jet lag. It's time to replace the myths with tested and validated circadian science. Timeshifter is the leader in circadian technology, uniquely offering the only scientifically-validated advice proven to quickly adjust you to new time zones and alleviate jet lag symptoms. In your brain, you have a 24-hour circadian clock that regulates nearly all of your biological functions. Jet lag is caused when your sleep/wake and light/dark cycle shift too quickly for your circadian clock to keep up. The only way to reduce jet lag quickly is by shifting your circadian clock to the new time zone. Light is the most important time cue for “shifting” your circadian clock. Light exposure and avoidance, at the right time, will significantly accelerate your adaptation. Seeing or avoiding light at the wrong time — as often recommended by non-experts — will shift your circadian clock the wrong way – away from your new time zone – making your jet lag worse. Timeshifter helps you eliminate jet lag by addressing the underlying cause – the disruption of your circadian clock – as well as alleviate the disruptive symptoms, such as insomnia, sleepiness and digestive discomfort. All the features you need: Circadian Time™: Advice is based on your body’s clock Practicality Filter™: Adjusts advice to the "real world" Quick Turnaround®: Automatically detects short trips Pre-travel advice: Start adjusting before departure Push notifications: View advice without opening the app Timeshifter’s benefits are well established. Based on ~130,000 post-flight surveys, 96.4% of the travelers who followed Timeshifter's advice did not struggle with severe or very severe jet lag. When NOT following the advice, there was a 6.2x increase in severe or very severe jet lag, and a 14.1x increase in very severe jet lag. Your first plan is free.

    I spent over 30 years flying around the world. I use time shifter on a trip between Los Angeles and Tokyo, and found the app easy to use and extremely effective in helping me. Adjust both going east and returning home going west. Highly recommend this app
  • Worked for me!

    I used Timeshifter to manage jet lag on my recent trip to Thailand from the U.S. I followed the schedule as closely as I could, didn’t use melatonin, and had zero jet lag arriving in Thailand and minimal jet lag upon return. It was easy to follow; I just waited to be notified what to do and when. No need to figure it out myself! I’ve got another international trip planned and will definitely use Timeshifter.

    A friend recommended this to me ahead of an ambitious, brief trip - involving 20 hours of air travel in 3 days. It delivered! I won’t travel without Timeshifter again.
  • Amazing & No Jet Lag

    I haves used this twice. 1) April 2024 California to London & Paris 2) December 2024 California to Munich Germany. First trip my jet lag was mild. But my recent trip to Munich had ZERO jet lag going or returning. I was back on my normal sleeping schedule the hour I got back! I was attempting to stick as closely to the sleep/wake/coffee recommendations as possible. Without the app, my overseas travel jet lag would last over a week or longer. I HIGHLY recommend this app for your travels.

    Best app ever! I use this app religiously when I travel more than two time zones and it is a superstar. It has saved my butt when going from US to Asia and Europe multiple times. It is incredible that 12 hour time changes totally disappear and I feel great my entire journey. Thank you Timeshifter!!
  • Was a total painful waste of time

    Yeah, this app doesn’t work as I suffer through my third day of Jetlag. I followed the stuff to a T except I didn’t take melatonin, but this didn’t work at all. Don’t waste your money.
  • A must have app for any world traveller….

    We downloaded the app after being told about it by a neighbor and then my wife’s sister and we honestly went into it with a bit of reluctance but knowing we had an 18 hour flight - and a 16 hour time difference - we said we’d give it a try and boy were we glad we did! So the prep for the trip using the app started a few days before and once we understood the nuances of using it, the requirements - light intake, caffeine consumption, etc. - were fairly easy to maintain. So we boarded our flight from LA to Singapore and follow the instructions regarding sleep, napping, being awake, etc. to the letter and when we landed in Singapore - which on the calendar was 2 days later - at 7:30am we just dropped our bags at the hotel and spent the day exploring with - no joke - ZERO JETLAG! We were shocked and were instant evangelists for the app telling everyone we could about it. Even for the price they charge, which is nominal, if it saves you one day of no jet lag, and you get to spend that day exploring, the value of the app, vs the value of not losing a day of your trip, is priceless.

    I had planned a trip with an extra day to account for jet lag, but Timeshifter totally blew my mind and gave me an entire extra day of my vacation! It’s going to be my go-to travel accessory for all my future trips!
