Dilutions, protocols, timers
Only for iPhone
Free · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
iPhone
Your lab bench, calmer: dilutions without mistakes, protocols step by step, and timers on your lock screen. No account, no internet, nothing collected.
Lilo is a small helper for the lab bench. It does the maths you'd otherwise do on a glove box, and keeps your place in a protocol while your hands are busy.
CALCULATE
• Dilution (C₁V₁ = C₂V₂): molar, mass or fold, with molar-mass conversion and a plan for intermediate dilutions when a volume is too small to pipette
• Serial dilution, tube by tube
• Master mix for PCR and qPCR, with extra volume and the template added per well
• Make a solution: how much to weigh for a molarity or % w/v
• Cell count: tap once per cell for live and dead, square by square; get cells/mL and viability
• Cell seeding: cell suspension and medium for any plate
Results update as you type, and a tap copies a number. The maths is the same engine as Lilo for Mac, checked against hundreds of reference cases.
PROTOCOLS
• Prepare a protocol in Lilo on your Mac and scan the code. No account and no cloud.
• One big step at a time, readable from arm's length, with glove-friendly buttons
• Start the step's timer with one tap, and run several timers at once
• See the step and its timer on the lock screen and in the Dynamic Island, with Next and Back right there
• "Hey Siri, next step in Lilo" works hands-free
• Steps can be read aloud
• Add notes as you go (dictation works) and send the finished run back to your Mac's lab notebook
QUICK TIMERS
Spin, block, wash: one tap starts a named timer that keeps counting on the lock screen.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Lilo for iPhone has no network access at all. Nothing you calculate, scan or write leaves your phone unless you send it to your own Mac.
