Not every appliance is smart. But it can be. Appligence turns the washer, dryer, dishwasher, oven, crockpot, air fryer — or anything else with a timer — into a smart appliance you can glance at from anywhere. No new hardware, no smart hub: just beautiful live countdowns on your Lock Screen, in the Dynamic Island and on Apple Watch, and a gentle chime the moment your appliance is done. Built with Apple’s Liquid Glass design language, Appligence feels like it ships with iPhone — translucent surfaces, glowing progress rings, fluid motion, and an accent color for every appliance. JUST ASK SIRI “Start the dishwasher in Appligence.” Start, pause, resume, or cancel a timer, add time, ask how long is left, or check what’s running — by voice or with Shortcuts. Siri always checks with you before changing a timer. DESCRIBE IT Type or dictate an appliance the way you’d say it — “Bosch dishwasher in the kitchen, Eco 2 h 45 min, Quick 1 h” — and Appligence sets it up for you to review. It uses on‑device Apple Intelligence where available, and works on every iPhone without it. WIDGETS AND CONTROLS Start your favorite timers and follow running ones from widgets on the Home Screen, in StandBy, in CarPlay and on Apple HomeView, and see what finishes next on the Lock Screen — or start one from Control Center, the Lock Screen, or the Action button. MADE FOR YOUR APPLIANCES • 19 templates, from washer and dryer to sous vide and sprinkler — or design your own. • Named presets for the cycles you actually use — “Normal Wash · 52 min”, “Slow Cook · 8 hr” — each one tap to start. • An icon from a searchable library of more than 200, an accent color, a card style, and an optional room. • Several appliances at once, each with its own countdown. LIVE ACTIVITIES AND TIMER CONTROLS • Lock Screen and Dynamic Island countdowns in each appliance’s accent color, with a live progress bar on the Lock Screen. • When a timer finishes, it says “Complete!” — tap Start Again to run it once more. • Add time with one‑tap buttons you set per appliance; pause, resume, or restart any time. • An optional 5‑minute warning for longer timers, and a reminder if one is left paused. • The Appligence chime or the iOS sound — your choice. • Timers are anchored to a real end time, so they stay accurate even if you force‑quit the app or restart your phone. HISTORY Runs, most‑used preset, and time tracked for every appliance, plus a history of everything across the house — kept for 30 days, 90 days, or forever. DESIGNED FOR EVERYONE • Dynamic Type up to the largest Accessibility sizes, VoiceOver with natural spoken countdowns, and Reduce Motion respected throughout. • Dark Mode and Light Mode. • On iPhone Duo and iPad, the dashboard sits beside what you open whenever there’s room, in any orientation and in resizable windows. • Available in 10 languages. PRIVACY YOU CAN TRUST Appligence collects nothing. No analytics, no tracking, no account, no network requests. Your appliances, presets, and history live on your device, and nowhere else. Appligence makes the appliances you already own a little smarter — and makes your phone the calm, glanceable command center for everything that’s running at home.
