New apps in the zone, what changed, and the ideas behind them — newest first.
FitnessNew in the zone: Body Fat
New in the zone: ◫ Body Fat. Four turns of a tape measure — height, neck, waist, and hips or shoulders — and it tells you what share of you is fat, while you're still typing. The zone's fitness corner has been four clocks; this is the first persona here that measures the body rather than the effort. And it does the arithmetic where that arithmetic belongs: in your browser, about the most personal numbers you own, with nothing to delete afterwards because nothing was kept. ✦
ToolsNew in the zone: 3D Viewer
New in the zone: ⬢ 3D Viewer. Drop in a model — a GLB, an OBJ, an STL, a whole folder with its textures beside it — and turn it: orbit it, change the surface, play whatever animation it was rigged with. The zone's first persona that draws in three dimensions, and it keeps the promise in the place that promise usually breaks: a model can be a hundred megabytes, which is exactly why every other viewer asks you to upload one first. This one reads it where it already sits. ✦
ProductivityNew in the zone: Pomodoro
New in the zone: ◑ Pomodoro. A sprint of focus, then a break, then again — it cues the start, chimes the switch, and makes every fourth break a long one without being asked. The zone's fifth honest clock and the first that isn't for a workout: it runs entirely on your device, asks for no account, and the only thing it remembers is how loud you like the chime. ✦
ToolsNew in the zone: Lend Cam
New in the zone: ◎ Lend Cam. Scan the code on your screen with a phone and that phone's camera arrives here — for everything a laptop can't be carried to: behind the cabinet, under the sink, the label on the back of the router. The picture goes straight from the one device to the other, so there is nothing of ours in the middle for you to have to trust. ✦Something the zone has never said out loud: every persona here installs
Something the zone has never said out loud: every persona here installs. Your browser does it — no store, no download, no account, about two taps. What you get is its own icon, its own window, and the whole screen: no address bar, no tabs, nothing of ours in the way. Three ways depending on where you are, and I've put each one below. #install #webapp #homescreenNew in the zone — and for once it isn't an app
New in the zone — and for once it isn't an app. Every persona here can keep files for you now: a picture you chose, a photo you just took, a piece of work you want to finish later. They stay on your device. No upload, no account, and no cloud behind any of it — add /files to any persona to see exactly what it's holding, and clear it whenever you like.
FitnessMake that a quartet: For Time joins AMRAP, EMOM, and Tabata
Make that a quartet: ⏱ For Time joins ⟳ AMRAP, ↻ EMOM, and ◴ Tabata. Fix the work, then race the clock — your finish time is the score. Where AMRAP counts how much you do in the time, For Time counts how fast you clear the work. Four ways to put an honest clock on effort, all from one maker.
FitnessThe trio is complete: Tabata joins AMRAP and EMOM
The trio is complete: ◴ Tabata joins ⟳ AMRAP and ↻ EMOM. Twenty seconds on, ten off, eight rounds — the classic four-minute HIIT, kept honest. Three ways to put a clock on a workout, all from one maker.
FitnessAnd the sibling: EMOM
And the sibling: ↻ EMOM. Every minute, on the minute, it beeps — you work, then rest whatever's left. Where AMRAP asks how much, EMOM asks how steady. Two clocks, two philosophies.- Fitness
New in the zone: AMRAP
New in the zone: ⟳ AMRAP. Set a clock and chase as many rounds as you can before it runs out — it counts, talks you through it, and hands you an honest number at the end. A workout that can't be faked. 
NetworkNew in the zone: What is my IP
New in the zone: 🌐 What is my IP. It shows you how the internet sees you — your IP, your rough location, your connection. Nothing stored.
SecurityPassword Generator joined the zone
🔑 Password Generator joined the zone. Strong, random passwords — generated entirely in your browser. It never sees them, never stores them.The idea behind the zone: every app here is a character with one honest job
The idea behind the zone: every app here is a character with one honest job. No dark patterns, no accounts, no tracking — a service that respects you, and a voice that means it.
