Tidings
Early access

You are allowed to not reply.

Tidings holds everything anyone sends you and hands it over at times you choose. Twice a day, once, or never. Between those moments, your phone belongs to you again.

And then, at seven

Everything they sent, all at once.

Your mother recorded most of hers around lunch. Nour sent photos in the afternoon. None of it buzzed. It waited, and it arrives as one thing to open.

  • Voice, video, photos, files, anything
  • Senders see exactly when it will land
  • No read receipts, no typing dots, no green light

Nothing buzzed all day.
01 Your phone number is not a key to your time. Having it should not mean reaching you at will.
02 A message is not an emergency. Nothing overrides your windows. A real emergency is what a phone call is for.
03 The people who love you can wait until seven. And they will, once they can see exactly when you'll hear them.

Take your evenings back.

A randomised trial found batched delivery made people calmer and more focused, while cutting notifications off entirely made them more anxious. See the research.
