「ARカップ麺タイマー」はカップ麺にお湯をそそいで出来上がるまでの時間をARで知ることができるiOSアプリです。 フタを認識して複数個のカップ麺で同時に使うことができます。 「あと何分?」と気になったらスマホをかざしてください。 一度登録すると次回からはフタにアプリをかざすだけで調理時間がセットされます。 使用履歴が残るのでカップ麺ログにもなります。

Stop your morning alarm. That’s all it takes to let someone know: “I’m okay.” UOK turns a simple daily habit—stopping your alarm—into an effortless safety check-in. If the alarm isn’t stopped, a “Not Confirmed” alert is automatically sent to the person you chose in advance. UOK is built around two principles: simple and non-invasive. It does not require always-on GPS sharing, and it’s designed to deliver reassurance without tracking your daily life. How it works (3 steps) 1 Set an alarm (your usual wake-up time is fine) 2 Add people who check in on you (family, friends, coworkers, etc.) 3 Each morning, just stop the alarm • Stopped = “I’m okay” signal • Not stopped = “Not Confirmed” notification What you can do • Daily safety check-in via alarm dismissal (easy to keep up) • Not Confirmed alerts sent automatically if the alarm isn’t stopped • Your check-in circle can be anyone (not limited to family) • No always-on location sharing (privacy-first, avoids the feeling of being watched) • Connect via a shared link (send through any messaging app) Recommended for • People living alone who feel that “daily messages” to family or close friends are a burden • Anyone worried about a parent or loved one, but who wants to avoid surveillance-style monitoring • Those who want a system for peace of mind—without extra effort Pricing • Free to use (with ads) • Ad-free subscription: JPY 120/month or JPY 1,080/year (auto-renewing) ■ Subscription & Disclaimer A subscription is required to remove ads and extend the number of follow users to 30.
