Classic Repeater vs Haptic Interval Timer

Experience the elegance of traditional horology on your wrist. Repeater brings one of watchmaking's most revered complications to Apple Watch and iPhone: the minute repeater. With a simple tap, hear the current time announced through authentic chimes recorded from early 1900s pocket watches and classic mechanical timepieces, or fun sound packs like a kid's bike bell. THE MINUTE REPEATER Before electric lights made reading watch faces easy, minute repeaters solved a practical problem: telling time in the dark. By pressing a slide on the case, the watch would chime the hours, quarter-hours, and minutes through precisely tuned gongs. Repeater honors this tradition with a decimal system optimized for modern timekeeping: Hours chime with a distinct low tone Tens of minutes sound as melodic ding-dong pairs Individual minutes ring with a higher chime For example, 3:25 plays as: three low chimes (hours), two ding-dong pairs (twenty minutes), then five high chimes (five minutes). AUTHENTIC AUDIO Unlike synthetic sounds, Repeater uses professionally recorded audio from real mechanical timepieces. Each strike captures the warmth, resonance, and character of genuine watch complications — delicate pocket watch bells to robust wristwatch gongs, to a fun kid's bike bell. Multiple sound packs available: Pocket Watch Repeater (included) — Early 1900s pocket watch with warm, intimate tones Bicycle Bell (included) — Playful thumb bells for a cheerful experience Tower Bells (included) — Classic church bell tower sound, loud and expressive Wood blocks (included) — Dry hardwood temple blocks, subtle and warm Classic Repeater (premium) — Two options, recorded from a traditional wrist watch with refined chimes WATCH-FIRST DESIGN Repeater is built primarily for Apple Watch, putting the complication where it belongs: on your wrist. Tap the complication on any watch face to hear the current time. No need to look at the screen — perfect for dark rooms, meetings, or simply appreciating time in a different way. Choose your experience: Sound mode: Elegant audio chimes through your watch speaker Haptics mode: Discrete vibrations for silent time-telling Adjustable volume levels and haptic intensities Configure reminders to appear: Every 15 minutes, 30 minutes or hourly Only during your active hours (e.g., 8 AM - 10 PM) On your watch, iPhone, or both When a reminder appears, tap "Play" to hear the time through the minute repeater. It's an opportunity to pause, orient yourself in the day, and appreciate the passage of time.

Feel time without watching the clock. Haptic Interval Timer taps your wrist with a silent vibration cue at the interval you choose, so your hands and eyes stay on what matters. Built for Apple Watch first: pick a preset, press Start, and lower your wrist. Cues keep arriving with the screen off and the iPhone away. WHAT IT DOES - Repeating haptic cues every few seconds, minutes, or hours - Countdown mode (pomodoros, presentations, workouts, breathwork) or count-up mode (stretching, pacing, rehabilitation) - Eight named cue patterns to choose from: single, double, and triple taps, rise, fall, alert, success, and warning - A Test Haptics screen that plays every pattern so you can pick one you can feel before you rely on it - Saved presets, ready in three taps or fewer from the Watch, plus a complication that starts your last preset instantly - Pause, resume, reset, and add five minutes without touching your phone - A Setup screen that checks notification permission and explains every condition that can weaken a cue: silent mode, Theater Mode, Water Lock, wrist detection, Focus, Low Power Mode, and haptic strength RELIABLE, AND HONEST ABOUT IT Cues are scheduled ahead of time as local notifications, which is what lets them fire with the display asleep. A distinct alert marks the end of a countdown. The Watch keeps a window of upcoming cues pending and refills it in the background and whenever you open the app. The running screen always shows how far the current window reaches, so you are never guessing whether the next cue is really coming. There is no sound. Not a quiet sound, none: cues are wrist taps only, so nothing you do here can interrupt a meeting, a class, or a patient. ACCESSIBLE BY DEFAULT Every control is VoiceOver labelled, the timer display scales with Dynamic Type, and the transport buttons are full-size tap targets. Cues are tactile, so the app works when sound is not an option, or not available to you. WHO IT IS FOR Anyone who needs a repeating silent cue: focus sessions and time blindness, interval workouts and stretching, presentations and teaching, breathwork and pacing exercises, and anyone who prefers or needs tactile rather than audible reminders. PRIVATE AND OFFLINE No account. No subscription. No tracking. No analytics. The app contains no networking code at all, so everything stays on your devices and works fully offline. The one-time purchase includes the complete app. The iPhone companion mirrors your presets to the Watch over the air when both are nearby, and the Watch keeps working entirely on its own. Note: haptic cues require an Apple Watch. The iPhone app configures presets and previews patterns using the iPhone's own haptics; the cues themselves play from the Watch.
