About

Cadence is a focus timer painted like a Japanese woodblock print. Thirty minutes of deep work, then three minutes on your feet. That is the whole app, and it is beautiful. THE TIDE IS YOUR TIMER When you start working, the sea rises. When the break comes, you surface. No rings, no dials: the water level is your progress, drawn in Prussian blue with cream foam. A SKY THAT FOLLOWS YOUR REAL DAY The sky in Cadence is your sky. Sunrise and sunset happen at their true local times. Your local weather drifts through as print-style clouds, rain on the surface, even snow. At night, the moon shows its actual phase. Sometimes birds cross. Sometimes a plane. Once in a while, a shooting star. BUILT ON THE SCIENCE OF SITTING Sitting is not the problem. Sitting without interruption is. Research links unbroken sitting bouts of more than 30 minutes to real health risks, and shows that a few minutes of light movement measurably help. Cadence keeps the rhythm for you: 30 minutes of focus, then a break worth a tenth of the time you worked. The sources are in the app, one tap away. PUSH THROUGH, OR DIVE BACK IN In flow when the bell rings? Push through: five more minutes, as many times as you need, and the break grows to match. Ready before the break ends? Dive back in. QUIETLY POWERFUL - Live Activity on your Lock Screen during sessions - Your rhythm at a glance: daily focus, weekly chart, streaks, honored breaks - Everything stays on your device: no account, no ads, no tracking - English and French Cadence is a nudge, not medical advice.

New: name your focus. Hold "Focus" at the top of the screen to pick a focus type, and create your own in Settings. Stats then show how much time went to each. New: sync. Your running session, your settings and Premium follow you across your devices through iCloud, nothing to set up. The timer scene uses less energy, and honors Reduce Motion and Low Power Mode. Plus a few fixes to blocking.
