What's New in Otso

1.4

October 22, 2026

• Made for iPhone Duo: Otso fills the whole display, closed or open, and keeps the dial clear of the fold and the status items • Half folded, the countdown gets one side of the screen and the dial stays on the other • Works in Split View: put Otso next to another app, and the dial adapts as you resize it • The faces now catch the light: tilt your iPhone or iPad, or move the pointer on Mac, and the glass glints, shadows deepen under the rim and the knobs, and Neon’s glow floats behind its tube • Turn the dial with two fingers on iPhone and iPad, just like a real knob • In case you missed it: Otso is now on Apple Watch, with all fifteen faces

Perfect watch toddler timer

I couldn’t find anything that would play on my watch and be cute enough that my three-year-old would be excited about it, but not be too distracting. Thank you for making this!

Response from developer

Thank for the kind words, I really appreciate it.

Beautiful

This is a really nice visual timer beautifully designed with attention to detail even different sounds for the different clocks. I really love it and it’s well worth the money no in app ads or something. I really like it. Thank you!

Response from developer

Thank you - Glad you like the concept!
