Type a sentence in any language — Tideo builds the timers. "Raisin cake." "20 min ab workout." "Remind me meds at 9." Tideo turns your words into timers, reminders or countdowns — and you review everything before it starts, then refine with a tap: "make it harder", "add a rest". That's the calm way to run your day — many timers at once, one gentle rhythm. DESCRIBE IT, IT'S BUILT • Write it in plain words, in the language you think in • Tideo drafts the timers, reminders or date countdowns for you • See it first, adjust by tapping, then start when it's right MANY TIMERS, ONE RHYTHM • Run as many timers as you need, side by side — three pots, one laundry, one nap • Chain steps into Sequences that flow on their own, with a voice that announces each next step • One-tap presets: Pomodoro, Tabata, 7-minute workout, box breathing, pour-over, eggs and more • Step guides: tap the info icon on a move to see exactly how to do it STAY IN THE FLOW • Ambient soundscapes — rain, thunderstorm, waves, night crickets — playing under your timers • Poster mode: a gorgeous fullscreen timer for study-with-me sessions and your desk, in portrait or landscape • Live Activities on the Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, StandBy, widgets, Siri and the Action button BUILD A RHYTHM THAT LASTS • Finish sessions, grow a daily streak, and watch your week fill up in the Rhythm Journal • Count down to the days that matter and never miss a recurring reminder Tideo is calm by design: no accounts, no ads, no tracking. Your timers stay on your device. Only the sentence you type into Describe it is sent to build your routine, plus anonymous usage stats — Tideo asks you first, and you can switch them off any time in Settings.
