Emio: Labor Contraction Timer

When labour begins, the last thing you need is a complicated app. Emio times your contractions with a single tap, shows the rhythm forming in real time, and helps you see when it may be time to go.

Built calm on purpose, for one of the most intense moments of your life.

CALM BY DESIGN
Soft colours, gentle motion, and a clean, focused screen. No noise, no clutter, nothing to learn. Emio stays out of your way so you can stay present.

ONE TAP TO START, HOLD TO STOP
Tap the moment a contraction begins. Hold to stop when it ends, so it can never be stopped by accident mid-contraction. That is the entire workflow.

SEE YOUR PATTERN, NOT JUST NUMBERS
Most timers give you a list. Emio gives you a living waveform: each contraction is a peak, each rest is a trough, so you can read the rhythm of your labour at a glance. Scrub back through your history like a stocks chart to see any contraction's duration and intensity.

TRACK INTENSITY
After each contraction, tag it as weak, moderate, or strong, or skip in a tap. Over time you see not just how often, but how powerful.

ORGANISE BY PATTERN
Start a new pattern whenever you like, the way you would start a new lap, and Emio keeps each session grouped cleanly in your history.

KNOW WHEN IT MAY BE TIME
Emio recognises when your contractions approach the widely used 5-1-1 guideline and surfaces a calm, clear prompt, never an alarm.

EVERYTHING IN ITS PLACE
Save your due date and emergency contacts, and reach your midwife or partner with a single tap when you need them.

YOUR DATA, SECURELY SAVED
Sign in with Apple, Google, or email. Your history is saved securely to your account, so it survives a dead battery or a handover of the phone to your partner.

IMPORTANT
Emio is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice. The patterns and prompts it shows are for information only. Always follow the guidance of your doctor or midwife about when to contact them or go to hospital.

Made with care for expecting parents and the people supporting them.
