Description

Make jet lag history with highly personalized jet lag plans. // Condé Nast Traveler: “Say goodbye to jet lag” // The Wall Street Journal: "Indispensable" // Travel + Leisure: “Game-changer” // New York Times: “Timeshifter is as good as it’s going to get." // CNBC: "Saves time and money" // WIRED: "Will help reset your [circadian] clock” // Lonely Planet: "Incredible" // Prevention: “One of the best apps according to doctors” JET LAG MYTHS VS. CIRCADIAN SCIENCE Misleading advice on conquering jet lag — often promoted by non-experts — not only fails to help travelers but can make jet lag symptoms worse and may even cause harm. It’s time to replace the myths with real science. Generic sleep advice, exercise, hydration, grounding, dietary supplements, special diets, or fasting won’t solve jet lag because they don’t "reset" your circadian clock to new time zones. THE REAL JET LAG SCIENCE // In your brain, a circadian clock helps manage the regular rhythm of your day. // Jet lag is caused when your sleep/wake and light/dark cycles shift too quickly for your circadian clock to keep up. // Light is the key time cue to “reset” your circadian clock, so the correct timing of light exposure and avoidance is the only way to adjust to new time zones quickly. If your timing is wrong, it will make your jet lag worse. WHY WE MADE TIMESHIFTER Getting the timing right is both complex and unintuitive. We created Timeshifter to make circadian science accessible and help you apply it to conquer jet lag. Timeshifter helps you tackle both the underlying cause of jet lag – the disruption of your circadian clock – as well as reduce the disruptive symptoms, such as insomnia, sleepiness and digestive discomfort. KEY FEATURES // 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 PROVEN RESULTS Based on ~130,000 post-flight surveys: // 96.4% of users who followed Timeshifter's advice 80% or more did not struggle with severe or very severe jet lag. // Travelers who did not follow the advice experienced a 6.2x increase in severe or very severe jet lag, and a 14.1x increase in very severe jet lag!

  • Avoid jet lag the way astronauts do

    By AstroMikeForeman
    As an astronaut I did a great deal of traveling internationally for speaking, training, etc. NASA had access to doctors and scientists who developed algorithms that gave us written schedules to follow before, during and after our trips to help us avoid jet lag. These are the same algorithms used by Timeshifter. As a retired astronaut I use this app religiously when I travel. It works!
  • Zero jet lag

    Our family used Timeshifter for a trip to SE Asia. We followed the plan and had zero jet lag during the trip. It works!

    Used this for my last two international trips and I had NO jet lag. It’s easy to navigate and makes a big difference.

    I had a terrible time with jet lag on my first overseas trip to Ireland, so I was worried about visiting my daughter in the Netherlands and being out of commission for days. But she recommended TimeShifter and it worked like a charm! My brain did not feel scrambled!
  • Back to normal

    This was a hard schedule to stick to for a few days prior to our trip to Europe, but wow did it pay off. One day feeling tired then off you go. Coming home harder because we were in an area where it didn’t get dark until 10:30 at night. I was not as good about following the schedule so did not do 100% of recommendations. Nevertheless, only doing about 80% it made a big difference when I got back. By the second day back, I played golf with no trouble but was tired at night. By third day, I am back to a normal schedule. With a 9 hour time difference that is really great.

    I wasn't sure what to think with this app, and the first free shift as a trial was helpful. I kept to it except for an hour in one place and an hour in another one. When we landed, I went to bed a little bit earlier than it told me to on the first day, but starting the next morning everything was right on track. I will happily use this app again, such a pleasant surprise to have it do what it says, and to enjoy the overseas travel without too much of a bother.
  • Amazing results

    I was concerned about jet lag traveling from the U.S. to Asia and decided to try the TimeShifter app because it is evidence-based and the recommendations made sense. The app was very simple to follow, and I followed it almost exactly. It was actually funny—while everyone else was sleeping on the plane, I was awake watching movies with my reading light on because that was what the app recommended! The results were excellent, and I experienced very little jet lag. I’m a big fan of this app and look forward to using it again on my trip home.
  • Amazing app

    I used this app when traveling from America to Vietnam (13 hour time difference) and it was amazing. I found this app only shortly before my trip so I only used it for about 3-4 days before my trip and a few days at the beginning and it was a lifesaver. I barely felt any jet lag because of it, and my husband who did not follow the advice (men lol) felt more jet lag than I did. I’d recommend this for sure if I was a traveler or just making a big jump in time difference!

    I flew from Florida to California to Tokyo to Singapore. I made to sure follow the app for the most part and felt minimal jet lag when getting to Singapore. It told me when to sleep, have caffeine, and when to be exposed to or hide from light. Helped a lot especially when being aboard a plane for almost 30 hours and going over the international date line.
