Working or studying from home can take its toll. The hours stretch on, screens blur together, and your attention drifts no matter how hard you try to stay on task. Parents know a different challenge—long nights soothing restless infants, searching for anything that will bring calm. And for many, the most difficult struggle is internal: a racing mind, waves of anxiety, or the simple inability to settle down. Present was created for these moments. It’s not about adding more noise or complexity. It’s about creating a soundscape that clears space, steadies your breath, and brings you back into the here and now. At the heart of Present are six unique singing bowl themes, each designed to shift your state of mind. A focused strike helps sharpen attention during study or work. Healing tones restore calm after a stressful day. Grounding vibrations reconnect you to your body. Serene notes carry you into stillness, while energetic chimes lift your spirit. Purifying bowls clear mental clutter and leave you with a sense of renewal. With a single sound, you can feel the shift. To deepen the experience, Present offers over one hundred immersive nature and ambient scenes, refreshed regularly so there’s always something new. Drift into the hush of a forest, the soft roll of ocean waves, the warmth of a crackling fire, or the gentle hum of nighttime rain. Each scene blends sound and visual cues into a space where your mind can release its grip on stress and simply rest. When you need structure, Present includes a simple yet powerful timer with Live Activity support. Set a session for focus, relaxation, or sleep, and let the timer guide you without breaking your flow. The live activity means you don’t have to open the app—your progress is right where you need it. Most importantly, Present respects your peace of mind. There are no ads, no endless clutter, and no tracking. Just a clear, simple design that gives you what you need: the ability to reset, breathe, and feel grounded. Features: • Six bell themes: Focus, Healing, Grounding, Serene, Energy, Purifying • Over 100 nature and ASMR soundscapes with immersive visuals • Meditation and focus timers with Live Activity integration • Support for work, study, rest, and mindful parenting • No ads, no tracking, no distractions—just presence Subscription Pricing and Terms: Present offers an auto-renewing monthly subscription at $2.99/month and an auto-renewing yearly subscription at $19.99/year, giving you unlimited access to the full Present experience while you maintain an active subscription.
