Rootling has a few new ways to spend time with you. • Cooking focus: Make time for the kitchen while Rootling stirs a cozy pot of noodles. • Quiet moments: Between sessions, Rootling may curl up under a blanket, hum and sway, or play paddle ball. • Calm by design: These occasional animations stay silent, respect Reduce Motion, and give way when your next session begins. Available on iPhone, Apple Watch, and Mac.

More ways to focus, with a little company from Rootling. • New focus activities: choose Exercise, Cleaning, or Creativity. Rootling curls weights and stretches, dusts around the room, or paints at an easel alongside you. • Local weather: let your room reflect the weather near you, or choose your own atmosphere in Settings. • Refined animations for working, reading, studying, and coding. • Distinct timer sounds to mark focus and break transitions. • A cleaner room view, with weather information and attribution tucked into Settings. Available on iPhone, Apple Watch, and Mac.

A little more atmosphere, and a clearer rhythm for your day. • Local weather: Your room can now reflect the weather outside using optional location access. Prefer a different mood? Manual weather choices are still available. • Focus your way: Choose General Focus, Reading, Coding, or Study, with matching activities and refined animations for Rootling. • Gentle timer sounds: New in-app cues mark starting, pausing, resuming, and stopping, with distinct chimes when focus and break time end. Preview or disable them in Settings, independently of your music. • A cleaner room view: Weather attribution now lives in Settings, leaving more space for your room on iPhone, Apple Watch, and Mac.
