## What is Appligence?

Not every appliance is smart. But it can be.

Appligence turns the washing machine, dryer, dishwasher, oven, crockpot, air fryer — or anything else with a timer — into a smart appliance you can glance at from anywhere on your iPhone. No new hardware. No smart hub. Just beautifully designed live countdowns on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, and a gentle notification the moment your appliance is done.

Built end‑to‑end with Apple’s Liquid Glass design language, Appligence feels like it ships with iPhone — translucent surfaces, glowing progress rings, fluid motion, and per‑appliance accent colors that make every card unmistakable.

WHY APPLIGENCE
• See exactly how long is left on your laundry without unlocking your phone — the Live Activity sits right on your Lock Screen.
• Track multiple appliances at the same time. Laundry, dinner, and the crockpot can all run side by side, each with its own countdown.
• Reliable: timers are anchored to a real end time, so they stay accurate even if you force‑quit the app or your phone restarts.
• Private by design: every appliance, preset, and timer history entry is stored on your device. Nothing is uploaded. No tracking. No accounts. Ever.

THOUGHTFULLY DESIGNED APPLIANCES
Start from a curated library of 20 templates — washing machine, dryer, dishwasher, oven, microwave, air fryer, crockpot, instant pot, toaster oven, coffee maker, rice cooker, kettle, bread maker, dehydrator, sous vide, humidifier, space heater, pool pump, sprinkler, or a fully custom appliance you design yourself.

Each one gets:
• A name and an illustrated Liquid Glass icon you choose.
• An accent color that tints its card, progress ring, Lock Screen Live Activity, and notification.
• A card style — Frosted Glass, Gradient, Solid, or Dark Glass.
• An optional room tag — Kitchen, Laundry Room, Garage, Bathroom, Basement, or Outdoor.

NAMED PRESETS, NOT GUESSWORK
Save the cycles you actually use. “Normal Wash · 52 min”, “Quick Dry · 30 min”, “Bake at 350° · 45 min”, “Slow Cook · 8 hr” — start any of them in one tap, every time. Edit, reorder, and add as many as 20 presets per appliance.

LIVE ACTIVITIES THAT SHINE
• Lock Screen: large countdown, accent‑colored progress bar, appliance name and preset title.
• Dynamic Island: compact countdown when one timer is running, smart switching when several are active.
• Multiple timers stack natively, exactly as iOS does it.

PRO TIMER CONTROLS
• Edit remaining time mid‑run with a precision picker.
• Add time without losing your place — one tap for +5, +10, or +15.
• Pause and resume any time.
• Optional “almost done” pre‑alert at 2, 5, or 10 minutes before completion.
• Optional reminder if a timer has been left paused.
• Crash‑safe session restore: come back to the app and pick up exactly where you left off.

HISTORY YOU CAN ACTUALLY USE
Per‑appliance run history — total runs, most‑used preset, total time tracked. A global history view for everything across the house. Clear or auto‑prune by 30 days, 90 days, or never.

DESIGNED FOR EVERYONE
• Full Dynamic Type support, including the largest Accessibility sizes.
• VoiceOver labels and natural‑language spoken countdowns (“twenty‑three minutes and thirty seconds remaining”).
• Reduce Motion: all looping animations gracefully disabled.
• Full Dark Mode and Light Mode.
• Universal: looks great on iPhone and iPad with a dedicated split‑view layout on iPad.

PRIVACY YOU CAN TRUST
Appligence collects nothing. There is no analytics SDK, no tracking, no account, no network requests at all. Your appliances, presets, and timer history live on your device, and nowhere else.

Appligence makes the appliances you already own a little smarter — and makes your phone the calm, glanceable command center for everything that’s running at home.
