Aligner Timer keeps your clear-aligner treatment on track: one tap when your trays come out, one tap when they go back in. No account. No ads. No subscription. WHY PEOPLE SWITCH TO ALIGNER TIMER • Live Activity & Dynamic Island — when your trays are out, a live timer sits on your Lock Screen so you can't forget them after lunch. Tap it to mark them back in without opening the app. • A real Apple Watch app — toggle from your wrist, see today's wear at a glance, and keep a streak complication on your watch face. The Live Activity mirrors into the watch Smart Stack too. • Sync that actually works — your history lives in your private iCloud and syncs automatically between your iPhone and Apple Watch. No login, no developer servers, nothing to lose. • Fix your history — forgot to tap? Add, edit, or backdate any event with exact times from the calendar. • Travel-proof days — stats stay anchored to your home time zone, so a trip abroad doesn't wreck your streaks or daily totals. EVERYTHING YOU NEED • Wear-time timer with a daily goal (16–24 h) and progress ring • Smart reminders: "put them back in", "still eating?" follow-ups, and tray-switch day — all snoozable • Compliance calendar: green, yellow and red days at a glance, with a pulsing blue dot for today • Stats: daily hours, 7-day average, goal-hit rate and streaks • Tray progression with estimated finish date • Daily discomfort journal (1–5 scale) • Export your data as CSV, or a clean PDF report to share with your orthodontist • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets • Siri & Shortcuts: "aligners out", "aligners in", toggle PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your data stays on your device and in your personal iCloud.

Track hot flashes in one tap. See what your hormone therapy actually changed. Log hot flashes with one tap — on your iPhone or right from your Apple Watch. Every dose change becomes a line on your charts, so you can see exactly what happened after: fewer hot flashes, better sleep, calmer heart rate. REMINDERS THAT CLOSE THE LOOP Patch days (twice a week, your schedule), daily gel or pills. If you don't mark it done, Attune follows up 45 minutes later. Mark it done right from the notification — no more "did I change it on Thursday?" EVERY MEDICATION ON ITS OWN SCHEDULE Two tablets at once is the normal prescription, not the exception. Each medication keeps its own doses, its own schedule and its own reminders — including cyclical progesterone by day of the month. Nothing is merged, nothing overwrites anything else. THE DOSE LINE Change your patch, gel or pills — Attune marks the date on every chart and compares before with after over 2 weeks, 6 weeks or 3 months, and flags short coverage as preliminary. Not on therapy yet? Start logging now — the "before" period can only be recorded while it is happening. "Hot flashes down 40% since your dose change" is a sentence your doctor can work with. ONE-TAP LOGGING Hot flashes happen anywhere. Tap once on your Apple Watch and it's recorded with the exact time — day and night episodes counted separately. Adjust intensity and triggers later, only if you want. APPLE HEALTH, BUILT IN Attune imports 6 months of sleep and heart history the moment you connect, so your charts mean something from day one. Sleep, resting heart rate and HRV update automatically. A REPORT YOUR DOCTOR TAKES SERIOUSLY A concise PDF: hot flash frequency by week, response to your last dose change, sleep and heart trends. Generate a PDF and walk into your appointment with evidence. WHAT YOU TRACK IS UP TO YOU Add your own symptoms — joint pain, anxiety, palpitations — and rate them 1–5 next to the built-in ones. Log bleeding on any day, or never: there is no cycle setup anywhere in Attune, and it works the same after a hysterectomy. Fix a wrong entry or add a missed one on any past day. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS No account is required, and your diary and Apple Health readings never leave your device. Export to CSV anytime. Subscription: after a 7-day free trial, at the price shown in your App Store. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. Subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage or cancel in Settings. Attune is a tracking tool, not a medical device. Always consult your clinician about your therapy. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://attunehrt.pages.dev/privacy
