New in 1.2: send a workout to a friend as a link — it opens in their Lido, ready to add. Free, no account, no ads.
Lido is a workout timer with a pool.
Build your workout, press play, and put the phone down. Lido speaks — it announces each exercise, calls halfway so you know when to switch sides, and counts down the last five seconds, even with the screen locked.
Finish a workout and a toy floats in your pool: a rubber duck, a beach ball, an orca, a flamingo. One toy per workout, a fresh pool every month. It's a workout log you'll actually want to look at — and every so often, a gilded toy turns up.
THE TIMER
• Timed circuits with spoken cues — hands-free from first exercise to last
• Untimed checklists for gym days: sets, reps, and a rest clock
• Halfway and five-second alerts, per exercise
• Keeps talking with the screen locked or the app in the background
SETS
• A standalone rest clock for the bench — tap when you rack the bar, lift when it says go
• Start it from Control Center or the Lock Screen without opening the app
THE POOL
• One toy per finished workout, in your workout's color
• Monthly pools you can swim back through
• Rare gilded toys, if you're lucky
SHARE
• Send a workout to a friend as a link — it opens in their Lido, ready to add
• No account needed on either end
EVERYWHERE
• Home Screen widgets for your week and your pool
• Lock Screen accessories
• Night Swim — a dark mode that lights the pool after sundown
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no ads, no tracking, no subscription
• Everything stays on your phone
• Shared workouts travel inside the link itself — no server ever sees them
Free. Made by one person and a rubber duck.

Share a workout
- Send a program to a friend as a link. It opens in their Lido, ready to add — the workout travels inside the link itself, never through a server.
A bigger pool
- Twenty finishes in one month now earn the grand pool: wider water, a second ladder, a diving board. Looks like you needed a bigger pool.
Calmer water
- Busy months drift more believably — toys bump and slide around each other, and even a very full pool stays legible.
