Make time part of your space. Tavlo turns your iPhone or iPad into a landscape desk timer or clock. Large numbers, tactile materials and smooth motion give every design its own character. FIND YOUR STYLE Explore 50 designs across Vintage (15), Digital (17), Bold (10) and Minimal (8). Try warm Vintage cases, electronic Digital displays, bold typography or restrained layouts. Aviator, Altimeter and Relay feature animated mechanical digit changes. FOCUS, COUNT UP OR KEEP TIME β€’ Focus: countdown intervals with breaks and rounds. Set 1–120 minutes, breaks of 1–30 minutes and up to 8 rounds. One round gives you a single countdown. β€’ Count Up: track elapsed time from zero, with pause, resume and reset. β€’ Clock: display the live local time in landscape, in 24-hour format. One real session runs at a time. Optional sounds and screen-awake settings let you choose how it feels. Focus completion notifications are optional too. PREVIEW AND SAVE During onboarding, choose up to five designs for a live landscape preview. These picks are only for the preview. In the gallery, tap a heart to save a favourite, then use the top-left heart to find it again. Your main gallery keeps its order. WIDGETS THAT FIT YOUR SPACE Add themed small or medium Home Screen widgets, or rectangular, circular and inline Lock Screen widgets. Choose a design, a Focus duration or whether to follow your running session. Tap to open setup or the active timer. Widget updates are managed by the system.
