Tired of juggling too many utility apps on your iPhone? Meditation, focus timers, bookkeeping, ToDo, white noise. If you play music, you'll want a tuner and metronome too, or dice rolls when you just want to play. Morphis bundles all of these into a single app with a refined skeuomorphic interface and an integrated physics engine that delivers strikingly realistic paper and physical effects. We also ship a realistic receipt printer that records your expenses, focus sessions, and completed ToDos. We offer a Liquid Glass theme and a hand-drawn Sketch theme. Customize your widgets! Tip: you can even change the light source direction to give the interface a completely different cast of shadow and highlight. Features ◆ Pomodoro — Custom focus durations. Prints a session receipt when the timer ends, with full statistics. ◆ Bookkeeping — Log daily income and expenses quickly, with a realistic printed-receipt effect and full statistics. ◆ ToDo — A clean, simple list to manage your everyday tasks. ◆ White Noise — 20+ ambient sounds (rain, nature, a cat's purr) with background playback to help you focus or fall asleep. ◆ Tuner — Real-time pitch detection. Accurate tuning for guitar, ukulele, and other string instruments. ◆ Metronome — Rock-steady tempo with custom BPM. Essential for practice and rehearsal. ◆ Toy Dice — 3D physics simulation.
