gently is a minimal wrist wearable that uses vibration and light to guide your day — so you stay present, focused, and in calm control of only the reminders you want.
Most of us reach for our phone a hundred times a day. We miss what matters because everything is shouting for our attention.
01 — Overload
Phones are overwhelming.
Notifications, apps, and noise pull your attention away from what — and who — is right in front of you.
02— Sound
Alarms don't work for everyone.
Sound isn’t always reliable or wanted — for our partners, parents, kids, or anyone who can’t rely on hearing it.
03 — Missed
Important moments get missed.
Meetings. Medication. Wake-ups. Pick-ups. The things that matter most are the easiest to forget.
There's a better way
02 · How it works
Three steps. That's all.

06 · Built for everyone
A reminder that doesn't depend on sound.
gently was created to reduce unwanted sounds, chirps, and alarms coming from our phone. It ended up helping the people who sound leaves behind.
It started with one rule: no phones in the bedroom.
A husband and wife who wanted their bedroom back. No more blue light before bed. No more wi-fi signals next to our heads. No more doom-scrolling at 2 AM. No more restless nights with the phone on the nightstand calling our name
We agreed the bedroom should be a place to relax, talk, read, and sleep. We wanted a calmer, quieter way to wake up. One that didn’t disturb either of us when one of us had an early start.
That idea evolved into a minimal wrist wearable that handles our morning alarms, meetings, medicine, child pick-ups, birthdays, and the dozens of little things our phones used to nag us about. We freed ourselves from the tether. We hope it resonates with you.

gently is IP67 rated — it shrugs off showers, dishes, sweat, and rain. We don’t recommend swimming or submerging beyond 1 meter for more than 30 minutes. Water proof devices coming in 2028.
