Parallel Rest Timer
Read full descriptionHide full description
I built this app because I was tired of overly complicated workout trackers. I didn't want to click through menus logging my reps, sets, and weight records just to finally start a simple rest timer. If you just want to start your workout and time your breaks, this is the app for you. It does exactly what it says: lets you start a workout session and run multiple rest timers at the same time, right from your wrist. What it does: - Closes your rings: It starts a real watchOS workout session, so your heart rate is tracked and your active calories count toward your Apple Health rings. - Phone-free: Works entirely on your Apple Watch so you can leave your phone in your locker or at home. - Concurrent timers: Run multiple break timers in parallel. - Not just for lifting: You can select different activity types, making it just as useful for running, HIIT, yoga, or any other workout outside the weight room. - 100% Private: This app maximizes your privacy. It doesn't even ask for internet access, requires no accounts, and does zero tracking. Your data never leaves your device. No fluff, no mandatory data entry, and no tracking. Just start your activity, and time your rests.

Tactile Dot is a minimal haptic focus practice. Open the app and you enter a nearly black screen. Move your finger slowly and listen through touch: soft pulses mean the surface is responding; firmer feedback means you are getting closer to the hidden point; when you find it, hold still for a moment to complete one count. It is not a conventional game or productivity tool. It is closer to a small tactile object inside your phone: something quiet to touch when you are waiting, idle, or simply want a focused hand movement. Features: - Black-screen tactile interaction - Designed around iPhone haptic feedback - Random hidden touch point - Hold-to-confirm completion - Persistent lifetime count - Gentle particle guidance for early use - A cleaner black-screen mode after the first few completions - No account, no social layer, no complicated setup No need to look. Just feel.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Parallel Rest Timer at Free against 一粒 EDC's $0.99. 一粒 EDC's advantage is update cadence (daily vs weekly). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
