## What is Contraction Timer?

The contractions have started. The last thing you need is to work out how to use an app.

Ripply is ready. One big button. You tap when it starts, you tap when it stops. We handle the rest, calmly, with zero ads. Two numbers tell you what matters: how long the last contraction lasted, and how long since it came back.

BUILT FOR THE MOMENT OF LABOUR

Labour is not the right moment for an advert, for creating an account, or for figuring out a cluttered interface. Ripply takes the opposite approach: zero ads, zero setup, zero waiting. Your contractions stay on your phone; nothing is shared unless you turn it on yourself. The main screen is readable in a second, even in the dark, with one hand.

WHAT RIPPLY DOES, SIMPLY

• One big button, impossible to miss, usable one-handed
• Duration and interval shown in real time, readable at a glance
• Visible on the lock screen: duration, interval and guideline without unlocking your phone
• Optional quiet notification when the guideline is reached, even with the phone in your pocket
• Averages over the last hour, updated automatically
• The 5-1-1 marker shown calmly, presented as general information
• History kept session after session, from the first Braxton-Hicks to the birth
• Full, editable history, so you can fix a missed tap
• One-tap export: text to send by message, or PDF for the hospital
• Optimised night mode: dark background, soft numbers, no glare
• Local storage: nothing is lost, even if the app is closed

FOR THE EXPECTANT MOTHER AND THE PARTNER

Designed for the partner timing in the dark and for the expectant mother managing alone between waves. For the partner who has never opened the app and has to use it at 2am, one button, nothing to figure out. No curve to interpret, no settings to understand. Just the numbers you need to decide when to call your maternity unit.

IMPORTANT

Ripply is not a medical app. It helps you time your contractions; it provides no diagnosis and does not replace the advice of a healthcare professional. The 5-1-1 marker is general information, not personalised guidance. If you have any doubt, unusual intensity or your waters break, contact your maternity unit directly.

Free, no ads, ready the second it starts.
