TeaTimer: Perfect Steeps Every Time
What it is: A simple, focused tea-brewing app that helps users achieve ideal steep times and temperatures for different teas (green, black, oolong, white, herbal, pu‑erh).
Key features:
- Preset profiles: Ready-made timers and temperatures for common teas.
- Custom timers: Save custom steep times/temps and repeatable brew notes.
- Step-by-step brew guide: Visual countdown, gentle alerts (vibrate/sound), and recommended actions (e.g., “pour off leaves” or “rinse gaiwan”).
- Temperature assistance: Built-in target temps and guidance for reaching them (e.g., “let boiled water cool 2–3 min for green tea”).
- Batch & multi-cup mode: Staggered timers for multiple infusions or multiple cups.
- History & favorites: Track past brews and favorite settings.
- Minimal UI: Clean, distraction-free interface with large timer display and tea thumbnails.
Target users: Casual tea drinkers who want consistent results, home enthusiasts exploring multiple infusions, and those new to tea who appreciate guided brewing.
