Start a session from the Apple Watch app and get alerted when your iPhone goes out of range, so you notice it before leaving a car, restaurant, office, or home. Check connection status on your wrist and scan nearby Bluetooth devices. Use signal strength to help locate earbuds, tablets, accessories, and other compatible devices around you. Features • Apple Watch out-of-range alerts • Quick connection status on your wrist • Nearby Bluetooth device scanning • Signal-based device search • Works with many Bluetooth accessories Free mode includes 1 alert per day to try the app. Upgrade with an in-app purchase to unlock unlimited alerts. Please note: Bluetooth connections can occasionally drop for a moment because of system or radio conditions, which may rarely trigger a false alert. Apple Watch monitoring may affect its battery life when more frequent monitoring is needed for faster alerts.

Sound familiar? You leave your iPhone in the car holder and only remember once you're home, up on your floor. Now get dressed, head back down, walk a few hundred meters back to the car. Or the other way around — you forget it at home or the office while getting ready, and only notice it at the car. I built this app for myself, because forgetting my phone is so me. Since I started using Leash ByEase, that's over. I haven't even left the parking lot yet — and my Apple Watch has already reminded me about the phone I left behind. Forgot it at home? The alert comes the moment I step out the door — while it's still easy to turn back. Leash ByEase is a simple, reliable Apple Watch app that instantly warns you when your iPhone is left behind. No gimmicks, no bloat — just a timely alert exactly when you need it. HOW IT WORKS As long as your iPhone is nearby (via Bluetooth), everything stays quiet — no notifications. The moment the connection drops, your Apple Watch vibrates and alerts you right away. No GPS delays — the alert arrives the instant you step out of range, not minutes later. You'll still have time to turn back before your phone is truly lost. KEY FEATURES • Instant alert on Apple Watch when the connection to your iPhone is lost • "Last seen here" — your Apple Watch remembers where the connection dropped and opens it on the map with one tap • Adjustable sensitivity — choose how far away the alert triggers • A vibration that's hard to miss • Flexible snooze — for when you've intentionally stepped away • Night mode — so alerts won't disturb your sleep • Watch face widget — connection status always at a glance • Works in the background, no need to keep the app open A SIMPLE PRICING MODEL I don't like subscriptions myself — so there are none here. A full-featured 7-day free trial, so you can see for yourself that it really works for you. Like it? One small one-time purchase, and every feature is yours forever — including all future updates. Your Apple Watch is already on your wrist. Now it also saves you from that same "where's my phone?!" — just like it saves me every day.
