WORN is a companion and wear tracker for a watch collection: the pieces you own, the days you wear them, and the ones you are still deciding about. THE GRAND TOUR OF TIME Travel through the history of timekeeping, from a baboon bone with 29 notches to the quartz second: 109 hand-drawn stops, each a short chapter with the real story behind it. Eleven are free to play, a chapter of the day opens with your wrist check, and the Grand Tour Pass opens every stop for good. WORN Premium includes every stop. THE COLLECTION Every watch sits on its own cushion in a box you arrange yourself, the way a collector would. Behind each piece: photos, box and papers, purchase price, service history, and the movement inside it. The investment view divides what you paid by the days you actually wore it: cost per wear is the honest number, and it usually argues for wearing more, not buying more. THE DIARY A calendar of every wear, written by tapping the watch you put on. Journal entries, a streak drawn as a mainspring you keep wound, and charts of rotation, brands and value that draw themselves in as you scroll. LISTENING Rest your iPhone against the caseback of a mechanical or automatic watch and WORN listens to the movement's beat like a timegrapher, then answers the only question you actually have: is it running well? Drift is reported in seconds a day and kept as an accuracy log per watch, so you can watch a service coming instead of being surprised by it. DISCOVER Ten watches a night, drawn from a catalogue of 46,000 pieces and presented one at a time from a closed tray. It is not a feed: when the ten are judged, the tray is done for the night. Tap any card and the piece gets a study page: a monograph on the watch, its movement, its maker and its material: a page of horology, not a product listing. Keep what deserves it, rank your keeps from Grail down to Pass, and search the shortlist once it grows past easy remembering. TRY IT ON FIRST One photo of your wrist, scaled by your wrist measurement, so a 36 mm dress watch and a 44 mm diver land differently on the same arm: a fitting, not a picture. An optional AI render arrives as an instant print that develops on screen, with its size check written on the border; Credits are charged only when a picture actually comes back. Everything you try on is kept: a gallery in Discover, and a "Tried on" strand in the Diary that is never counted as a wear. AI, ONLY WHEN YOU ASK Point the camera at a watch and WORN identifies it. Photograph today's outfit and the Mirror picks the watch to wear with it. No photo leaves your device in the background: every AI feature is a deliberate tap, covered by a consent you can withdraw in Settings at any time. WHAT IT COSTS The collection box, the diary and listening are free, and every watch you add has a Slot. AI actions cost Credits, bought in small packs (30, 120 or 350) that never expire; a new install starts with 20. WORN Premium is optional: 75 Credits every month (about 15 wrist renders or 7 outfit pairings), and what you don't use rolls over. Loupe, Vitrine and Darkroom, the premium camera films, cost 5 Credits for each print you keep, included with Premium. The Grand Tour Pass is a one-time purchase. PRIVACY, PLAINLY Your watches, wear diary and recordings live on your device and in your own private iCloud database, which we cannot read. The privacy policy names every service the app talks to and exactly what each one receives. If something is broken, tell us from inside the app: the feedback form shows you the diagnostics it will attach before you send it.
