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. We run no servers, show no ads, track nothing, and collect nothing. Works with Invisalign®, ClearCorrect®, Spark™, Byte® aligners, Angel Aligner and any other removable clear aligner or retainer.
