When's the squad actually getting on tonight? Set your time in one tap. TTKB blends everyone's answers into the ETTKB and puts it on your Home Screen and Lock Screen. The Discord bot posts it in your server too, so nobody has to ask again. THE BOARD • One-tap "tonight" status: a time, On now, Later, or Not tonight • ETTKB — the Estimated Time to Keyboard, the squad's converging time, with quorum so the night is real • Nudges: hurry someone up or roll-call the whole crew (etiquette limits included) REACTIONS WITH PERSONALITY • Fourteen emotes, each with its own look, sound and buzz — one tap to send, hold for the tray • See who reacted to you and with what, and set a thought bubble that floats from your avatar • A once-a-day Super React the whole crew hears about WIDGETS FIRST • Home Screen widgets for the board, your time, and the countdown • A Live Activity lobby countdown on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island as game time approaches • Control Center widget, Apple Watch complications, and Siri shortcuts DISCORD, MEET STEAM • Link Discord and run the board from your server: /ttkb, /ettkb, /onnow, /geton — the TTKB bot announces who's on • Link Steam and TTKB shows "on now · in game" automatically • The Sneaky Game rule: nobody sees you're playing before the time you set. Sneak on early — your secret is safe. iMESSAGE • Drop a TTKB card or tonight's live ETTKB sticker straight into the group chat BUILT FOR CLANS • Sign in with Apple, private groups with join codes • Invite links that work even for friends who don't have TTKB yet • Quiet hours, quick replies from notifications ("On my way" / "Not tonight") • No ads and no third-party tracking — see our privacy policy Less planning.
