Ember is a private daily wellness journal for women navigating perimenopause, mood changes, disrupted sleep, shifting energy, symptoms, and the quiet questions that can come with midlife.

Just a warm place to reflect.

Ember is built to feel simple enough for tired days and thoughtful enough for the days when you want to understand more. Your free experience includes daily tracking, journaling, calendar history, weekly summaries, custom symptoms, cycle context, learning tools, glossary access, and reflection prompts. PATTERNS WITHOUT PANIC Over time, Ember helps your self-reported history become easier to review.

The interval timer for custom HIIT and circuit training. Unlimited saved templates. No subscription.

CUSTOM CIRCUITS Work, rest, warm-up, and cool-down — each with its own name and free-form duration. Drag to reorder. Insert a segment anywhere. Set rounds. Presets include 20/10 sprint, 45/15 HIIT, EMOM 12, and a focus cycle. CUES THAT KEEP YOU HONEST Halfway beep and 3-2-1 countdown, including short intervals. Haptics on every transition. Your music keeps playing — the app ducks it during cues. FAVORITES, HISTORY, STREAKS Save real favorites, not just a history dump. Continue your last workout.
