Sosoro

A pour-over timer you can read from across the counter. The recipe is a waveform; the cup fills to the next target; your hand feels when to pour and when to stop.

Sosoro shows a coffee recipe as a stepped line — time across, grams of water up — and walks you through it: three ticks before each pour, a soft hum while the water goes in, one crisp tap at the target. The screen stays awake, and the next pour is on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Everything runs on your iPhone; there is no account and nothing is sent anywhere.


Frequently asked questions

How do I brew with it?

Pick a recipe, set how much coffee you are using, and tap Start. After a three-second lead-in the big number shows what your scale should read right now; the line under it says where this pour ends ("to 120g"). Between pours the number is the time until the next one.

How does dose scaling work?

Change the coffee weight with − and +. The total water and every pour are recalculated at the recipe's ratio (for example 1:15). The ratio itself can be changed in steps of 0.5. "Back to the original" restores the recipe as written. Sosoro remembers your last dose for each recipe.

The bed drained early. Can I move on?

Yes. The button on the right of the brew screen jumps to three seconds before the next step. The pause button in the middle holds the timer.

I can't feel the vibration / hear the sound

Check Settings in the app: Haptics and Sound can each be turned off. Sounds follow the iPhone's silent switch. The sound can also be muted from the brew screen. Vibration is only felt while the app is on screen.

What does the Live Activity show?

The countdown to the next pour and its target, with the pours after that listed beside it. iOS only lets an app refresh this while it is open, so if you leave the app for a long time the list is the part to trust.

What is different in Pro?

  • Free: 4:6 Method, One-Cup V60 and French Press, dose and ratio scaling, haptics and sound, Live Activity
  • Pro (one-time purchase): your own recipes drawn on the waveform, tea mode (gongfu, black, green, hojicha), the brew log, and four more recipes (AeroPress, Kalita Wave, Chemex, flash-chilled iced)

Pro is paid once and kept. It is not a subscription.

How do I make my own recipe? (Pro)

On the Coffee screen tap "New recipe". Drag a point sideways to change when a pour happens and up or down to change how much water it reaches. The rows below the chart do the same in exact steps. "Add a pour" adds one at the end.

How does tea mode work? (Pro)

Choose a tea and tap Start for each infusion. Every round runs a little longer than the last; "First steep" and "Each round" set by how much. − and + beside Start change only the infusion that is about to begin.

I changed iPhones. How do I restore Pro?

Signed in with the same Apple Account, open Settings in the app and tap Restore purchase.

Where is my data? Does it move to a new iPhone?

Recipes, the brew log and settings are stored only on your iPhone. If iOS's iCloud Backup is on, they are included in your device backup and restored with it. Deleting the app deletes them.
