What’s New Version 2.8.1
Rooibos and Mate, now on every screen.
The two teas we added last update now appear with their illustrations on your widgets and Apple Watch, not just iPhone.
We also did an accessibility pass: VoiceOver now reads the search and Pro controls clearly across the app. And we fixed a case where built-in teas could count against the free custom-tea limit.
Plus a Japanese localization fix and small polish throughout.
Description
Perfect Tea Timer for Apple Watch & iPhone
Steep is a tea timer designed for both Apple Watch and iPhone. Each app stands on its own, and they work beautifully together: start from your wrist or phone and stay in sync for every brew.
Brew with confidence using hand-picked presets for green, black, oolong, white, herbal, chai, pu-erh, and matcha teas. Works perfectly with loose leaf or tea bags: each entry includes ideal steep time and temperature guidance so every cup tastes right.
Apple Watch app:
• Launch a timer instantly from your wrist or complications.
• Pause, resume, or cancel without touching your phone.
• Stay in the flow with optional pre-alert haptics and auto-dismiss.
iPhone app:
• Organize your tea library, add custom blends, and choose which teas appear on Apple Watch.
• Start and manage timers with Live Activities on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island.
• Fine-tune preferences and keep everything backed up on your phone.
• A smarter kitchen timer built for your favorite hot beverage.
• Smart caffeine tracking that adjusts for steep time and number, with a weekly chart and a bedtime warning that reads each infusion.
Works together:
• Favorites, settings, and timers stay in sync between iPhone and Apple Watch.
• Use either app independently: your Watch runs great on its own when your phone isn't nearby.
iCloud Sync (Pro):
• Keep your teas, brew history, collections, settings, and photos in sync across all your devices.
• Enable in Settings and your data is always up to date, everywhere.
TeaTimer Pro (one-time purchase):
Unlock unlimited custom teas, iCloud sync across all your devices, plus advanced haptic and alert options for the ultimate tea workflow.
Whether you steep once a day or all afternoon, Steep keeps every brew precise.

Build 885656627v2.8.02026-05-15 00:00:37
Caffeine, properly accounted for.
Apple Health caffeine sync. Each completed brew is logged with steep-time-adjusted estimates, and the bedtime warning now factors in your other caffeine sources too. Turn it on in Settings.
This week (Pro). A new weekly insights card on Home surfaces your cup count, top tea, and brewing rhythm at a glance.
Two new default teas: Rooibos and Mate.
Plus: per-brew swipe-to-delete in History, a first-time explainer on the caffeine dashboard, and an accessibility pass on the caffeine UI.
Build 885521792v2.7.12026-05-12 01:18:16
Smarter Caffeine Tracking
Your caffeine estimates now account for how long you steep and which steep you're on. Shorter brews log less. Later steeps in a multi-steep session log less than the first. Daily totals, the weekly chart, and the bedtime warning all update automatically.
Build 885340956v2.7.02026-05-11 04:13:56
Ring Through Silent (Pro, iOS 26+)
Your tea timer can now ring through your phone's silent switch and Focus modes, the way the Clock app's alarms do. Opt in from Settings. Uses each tea's existing sound choice from the Library.
Build 884187066v2.6.02026-04-06 20:10:17
Beautiful Tea Illustrations
Each of the 8 default teas now has its own hand-painted watercolor illustration, replacing emoji throughout the app, widgets, and Apple Watch.
Redesigned Pro Screen
Clearer value presentation, better pricing layout, and a smoother upgrade experience.
Polished Onboarding
New staggered animations and micro-interactions make the first launch feel delightful.
Build 883649191v2.5.02026-04-04 09:31:20
iCloud Sync (Pro)
Your teas, brew history, collections, settings, and photos now sync across all your devices with iCloud. Enable it in Settings to keep everything up to date.
Turkish & Russian
Full app localization in Turkish and Russian, bringing Steep to two of the world's biggest tea-drinking cultures.
Notification Reminder
A friendly nudge on the home screen if notifications are turned off, so you never miss when your tea is ready.
Rate & Contact
Easily rate the app or reach out to the developer right from Settings.
Build 883525054v2.4.02026-03-19 21:22:13
Full Data Backup & Restore
Export everything — teas, brew history, collections, settings, stats, and photos — as a single .teatimer backup file. Import with merge or replace options. Never lose your data again.
Redesigned Brew History
Cleaner, more compact brew cards with all the info at a glance: time, duration, caffeine, and tasting notes.

Caffeine Tracker — now smarter and cleaner on the Home screen. When you haven't had any tea yet, it shows a friendly prompt instead of a bunch of zeros. Once you start brewing, you'll see a live progress ring, your daily intake vs. limit, and a weekly sparkline — no redundant info.
Bedtime Caffeine Warning — set a bedtime in Settings → Caffeine & Sleep, and TeaTimer will warn you before you brew a cup that might keep you up. It uses real pharmacokinetic math (caffeine half-life ≈ 5 hours) to estimate how much caffeine will still be in your system at bedtime.
Tap-to-Start Widgets — the Quick Start widget now has a real Play button. Tap it and your timer starts — no extra taps.
