Silo is a Pomodoro-style focus timer built for Apple Watch and iPhone. It uses subtle wrist haptics to guide focus and break sessions without loud alerts, distracting notifications, or constant phone checking. Perfect for students, people with ADHD, deep-work professionals, and anyone who wants a calmer way to stay on track. Silo is especially powerful on Apple Watch: a tap on your wrist tells you when to focus, when to take a break, and when to return. It’s ideal for libraries, offices, meetings, and anywhere silence matters. “To add something to your daily life without intrusion or complication—that’s what the Apple Watch is about, and this app does a great job of that.” — Apple WatchCast Podcast FEATURES • Apple Watch-first focus timer • Pomodoro-style focus and break sessions • Gentle haptic alerts on your wrist • Adjustable timer intervals on Apple Watch and iPhone • Pause and resume anytime • Quiet, distraction-free design • Great for silent environments • Works great with Airplane Mode SILO PRO • Apple Watch Complications • Plan your day with tasks and reminders • Assign tasks to focus sessions • Mark tasks complete • Custom focus presets • Track daily and weekly focus stats • iCloud sync for tasks and stats Support: support@silofocus.com Terms: silofocus.com/terms Privacy: silofocus.com/privacy
