Dial: Focus & Thought Capture

Dial is a focus Session that stays intact when your mind interrupts you. Time counts up. Your plan is a landmark, not a deadline. Capture — or park — a thought without stopping the Session, then return to the same work. Use Sections to shape longer work without turning it into a chain of timers.

ONE SESSION, KEPT INTACT
• Time counts up toward your chosen plan
• A plan is a quiet landmark to reach, not a deadline racing toward zero
• Sections mark places inside the same Session without breaking your focus flow
• If you keep working past your plan, overtime holds the session gently

CAPTURE IT, THEN RETURN
• Tap Park a thought while the clock keeps running — type it, or dictate it
• Speech is transcribed on your device, turning a spoken thought into text in seconds
• Nothing is sorted, scored, or judged mid-session. It simply waits.

AFTER THE SESSION
• Parked thoughts wait safely in a searchable library
• Dispatch a thought to Apple Reminders or Calendar when you are ready
• A gentle session history — no streaks, no scores, no failure language

THE SAME SESSION ACROSS THE SYSTEM
• Live Activity and Dynamic Island keep the running session in sight
• Interactive Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets
• Control Center control, assignable to the Action Button
• Siri can start, pause, resume, end, check a session, or park a thought
• Apple Watch companion with session controls and wrist dictation

QUIET BY DESIGN
• No account, no sign-in, no analytics, no ads, no tracking
• Core use works offline. Sessions and parked thoughts can sync through your own iCloud; Dial has no Aether account or Aether server

Dial is an original tool for protecting continuity of attention, built with care for restless minds and time blindness. It is not a medical product and makes no diagnostic or treatment claims.
