Transcend Timer

iPhone  ·  Apple Watch

A silent timer for Transcendental Meditation. Warm Up, Meditation, Rest — no guided voices, no content library, nothing to choose before you start. The screen brightens when meditation ends, so you can keep your eyes closed until it does.

Sessions are written to Apple Health. Nothing else leaves the phone.

Maat

iPhone

A budget app for students and first budgets, built around one number: what you can spend today. Maat takes what you have left, sets aside what you owe, and divides the rest by the days remaining — no charts, no alerts, no red. Spend more today and tomorrow is a little lower. Going over is arithmetic, not a failure.

Maat never connects to your bank. Every figure is one you typed.

Coming soon

lemergent is an independent app studio focused on building simple, privacy-respecting tools for iOS.

No venture funding, no growth hacking — just apps made with care for people who value their time and attention.
