Baked in San Francisco with love You know how we are all always a little frazzled these days? Just constantly distracted and brain fried — from work, from social media, whatever. That's why we made this app called Bro. It's just like… having a ridiculously supportive buddy on your lock screen. Sends you good vibes, checks in, and helps you keep your head on straight. You can talk to bro about whatever: work, relationship... and bro is the perfect sounding board. Bro even keeps a journal for you so that you can track your growth and connect the dots looking backwards. Bro's just here to keep you dialed in, keep you sharp and chill, and on top of your game. In this day and age, we could all use one more bro. --------------- SUBSCRIPTION INFO Our app offers an in-app subscription for a premium experience, including advanced AI models, unlimited memory, and unlimited cloud storage.

Sentinel Awareness & Sim
Read full descriptionHide full description
Sentinel Awareness & Sim brings real-world awareness and fictional simulations into one app—with a clear separation between the two. REAL AWARENESS View weather information powered by Apple Weather, browse available public advisories with source information, and explore located alerts on Apple Maps. Use your current location or save a city. FICTIONAL SIMULATIONS Explore invented scenarios, make decisions, and see how your choices affect time, supplies, and community confidence. Choose Calm, Standard, or Intense difficulty. Explore scenario districts on a separate fictional map. On supported devices with Apple Intelligence enabled, generate additional fictional scenarios. Built-in scenarios are available without Apple Intelligence. PERSONAL TOOLS Review alert history, manage saved cities and trusted contacts, create an emergency plan, and track simulation achievements. IMPORTANT Source coverage varies by location and category. Some advisories are national or destination-specific and do not indicate danger near you. Updates depend on connectivity, source availability, and iOS background restrictions. Sentinel is not an emergency service, a comprehensive warning system, or a substitute for official instructions. In an emergency, contact local emergency services. Simulations are fictional entertainment, not emergency-response guidance.
