Uair

Uair sets a mechanical watch to the second, then keeps a record of every watch you own and how each one runs. SET IT Pick a minute and Uair counts you in. Pull the crown to stop the seconds hand at 12, set the hands to the time on screen, and wait. The last three seconds fill the screen. At zero the screen flips and the phone taps in your hand: push in the crown. That's it, to the second, against your iPhone's network time. FIVE FACES Day-Date, GMT, Moonphase, Dive and Chronograph, each drawn for its complication: the date window, a second timezone on the 24-hour hand, today's moon, the bezel, the subdials. Each one comes with a short guide to what the hands are for and how to set them. THE COLLECTION Keep every watch you own in one place: photos, reference, serial, movement, what you paid, and every service. Uair lifts each watch out of its photo and sets them all at the same size, so the collection looks like one. Then find out how it really keeps time: • Listen. Lay the watch on the phone and Uair times its tick through the microphone. A rate in seconds a day, with beat rate and beat error, in about twenty seconds. • Check the time. Tap as the seconds hand passes 12, again a day or two later. Over a few days of wear you get the rate on the wrist: every position, every temperature, the one that matters. Rates are kept run by run, so you can see a watch before and after a regulation, and which ones have started to drift. WIDGETS A watch face for the Home Screen, Lock Screen and StandBy, and a Watch rate widget that shows how one of your watches is running. PRIVATE No account, no analytics. Your watches stay on your device, photos are cut out on the device, and the microphone sound is analysed as it arrives and never saved or sent anywhere. PRICING Setting your watch, the faces and the face widgets are free, always. The Collection is a one-time unlock with a free 14-day trial. The trial ends on its own and never charges you. Unlocking is one payment, with no subscription, and Family Sharing is supported.

Gold Browser puts the real web on your Watch: no iPhone in hand required. Tap the address bar to open any website, or type a few words to search with Google, DuckDuckGo, or Bing. Pages open right on your wrist, and you scroll with the Digital Crown like everything else on watchOS. KEY FEATURES • Open any website — type a domain and go straight there. • Search your way — choose Google, DuckDuckGo, or Bing in Settings. • Favorites — start with handpicked, watch-friendly sites (Wikipedia, YouTube, Maps, News, Weather and more), add your own, reorder by deleting, or restore the defaults anytime. • History & suggestions — recent pages appear on the home screen, and matching pages are suggested as you type. • Continue on iPhone or Mac — Handoff lets you pick up the page you're reading in Safari on your other devices with a tap. • Private by design — each page opens in a private session, so cookies and sign-ins aren't carried between pages. • Built for the watch — clean, full-screen layout, Digital Crown scrolling, and subtle haptic feedback. PRIVATE AND LIGHTWEIGHT Gold Browser collects nothing. There are no accounts, no analytics, and no tracking. Your favorites and history stay on your watch, and you can clear your history anytime from Settings. A NOTE ON HOW PAGES LOOK Pages render in the watch's built-in web view. watchOS draws a small bar at the top of every page (the site's domain and a close button); that bar is part of the system and can't be removed by apps. Sites designed for phones generally read best on the small screen. Browse the web from your wrist. Download Gold Browser.
