Pour

Pour turns your routines into something you can press play on. Pick a routine, tap it, and the whole screen fills with liquid ā water, honey, sand, or mercury ā that drains as each step elapses. Full means the step just started; empty means it's done. Time you can see, built for time blindness. Pour is designed for ADHD brains. Starting is the hard part, so Pour keeps it to two taps: open the app, tap a routine, and you're pouring. No setup screens in the way, no confirmations, no judgment when plans change. PRESS PLAY ON A ROUTINE ⢠Build routines from simple steps, each with its own duration ⢠Four templates ready on first launch: Morning, Get Out the Door, Reset Sprint, and Wind-down ⢠Reorder, reschedule, and reshape them any time ā everything autosaves TIME YOU CAN SEE ⢠A liquid timer fills the screen and drains in real time ⢠Huge, steady numerals that never jump around ⢠Gentle chimes and soft haptics mark each step change ⢠Pause, skip, or add two minutes ā skipping is always allowed KEEPS POURING WHEN YOU LOOK AWAY ⢠Live Activity and Dynamic Island show the current step on your Lock Screen ⢠Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets start a routine in one tap ⢠Optional scheduled invitations ā we'll only nudge when you ask us to NO STREAKS, NO SHAME ⢠History shows the times you showed up ā never the days in between ⢠Ending early still counts; Pour says so ⢠No chains, no scores, no guilt ā ever PRIVATE BY DESIGN ⢠Everything stays on your phone ⢠No account, no tracking, no analytics POUR PRO (optional) ⢠Unlimited routines and all four materials ⢠Chime packs, History insights, and alternate app icons ⢠Monthly, yearly (with a 14-day free trial), or a one-time lifetime purchase ā Family Sharing included on lifetime Pour is a visual timer and routine player.
