Start the pasta, the laundry and a pomodoro together. Whoever is working stands on the table at full size, with their read-outs underneath. No scrolling and no switching screens.
No ring and no percentage. You read the time off the friend, from how set the egg is or how much wax is left. The number is still there, just smaller.
Close the app, lock the phone, turn on a Focus. The timer still rings on time, because iOS schedules the alert the moment you start it.
Time-sensitive alerts reach you inside Focus modes instead of waiting for the next summary. Close the app and the timer still goes off.
Your friend waits on the Lock Screen with a countable progress bar. Hold, carry on, or say "got it" without unlocking.
A glyph and a countdown while it runs. The Island turns coral the moment a friend is ready.
A live timer, your days-kept streak, the whole table, and four one-tap starters.

pour 1:30 drawdown 1:00 A ritual is a timer made of steps. Bloom, pour and drawdown for coffee, or work and rest for eight rounds of tabata. Each step waits for your tap before the next one starts, and each step can use a different friend.
The streak counts days you saw a timer through to the end and came back to say "got it". The log is a month calendar you can walk back through.
Everything lives on your phone, and in your own private iCloud if you turn sync on. There is no account to create and no data to sell. Read the privacy policy.
Yes. A running timer lives on its end date and on a scheduled notification, so closing the app, locking the phone, or restarting it changes nothing. It rings at the time you set.
Yes. Wanci uses time-sensitive notifications, which iOS delivers inside Focus modes instead of holding them for a summary. The hardware silent switch still mutes sound, as it does for every timer app other than Apple's Clock.
Five. The table holds five friends on one row that never scrolls, so you can see who is working without switching screens.
A timer made of steps that each wait for your tap before the next one starts. Bloom, pour and drawdown for a pour-over, or work and rest rounds for a tabata. Each step can use a different friend.
Days kept, meaning days on which you saw a timer through to the end and came back to say "got it". Starting a timer does not count. The log is a month calendar you can walk back through.
No, but there is a free trial. During the trial you get the complete app, every friend and every feature. After that, Wanci Pro is either a monthly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. The App Store shows the price in your currency.
On your phone, and in your own private iCloud if you turn sync on. There is no account, no sign-in, no ads, and no analytics. Wanci collects nothing.
No. Wanci is an iPhone app, portrait only, for iOS 18 and later. There is no iPad layout, no Watch app, and no Android version.
In your Apple ID settings under Subscriptions, like any App Store subscription. Cancelling at least 24 hours before the period ends stops the next charge. Nothing you made is deleted when a subscription lapses.
