Watch the time you have left.
Name a task, pick when it’s due today, and light the candle. It melts in real time until the deadline: in the app, on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.

The candle’s height is the time left.
No numbers to read unless you want them. One task, one candle, and a deadline later today.
Name it, pick a time
Type what you’re working on and add a note if it helps. Choose a quick pick or any minute up to 11:59 pm.
Watch it burn
The candle melts in real time. The plaque keeps the task in view; switch on the countdown if you want the minutes too.
Put it out when you’re done
Tap Task done and the candle is blown out. The plaque records whether you were early, on time or late.
It keeps burning when you leave the app.
A Live Activity puts the candle on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, with the countdown and how much time is used. Add ten minutes or mark the task done without opening the app.
iOS ends Live Activities after 8 hours. For longer candles the app tells you when you light it, and still reminds you at the deadline.
Every ending is allowed.
Finished early, ran out of time, changed your mind: the plaque records what happened and nothing more.
- Done 2:36 pm24 min early
- Burned 2:00–3:00 pmTime's up
- Cancelled 2:36 pmNot counted
- Burned 2:00–3:00 pmDidn't finish
“No problem. Relight it to keep going, with the task and note already filled in.”
Made to be calm.
- A quiet flame
- Choose a calm flicker or a still flame. With Reduce Motion on, the flame holds still; the wax still melts.
- Time’s up, gently
- At the deadline the flame gutters out. Add time, mark it done, or say you didn’t finish.
- Built for everyone
- VoiceOver, Dynamic Type and Increase Contrast throughout, with text that meets WCAG AA contrast.
- One at a time
- Only one candle burns at once, so there’s never a list to manage.
Light one for your next task.
