## Description

Sounds that move. A mind that follows.

Most "8D audio" is one stereo file with a panning effect baked in. Whorl works differently: every layer is a separate source, spatialized live on your iPhone as it orbits your head. That is why you can change the speed mid-session, why head tracking works, and why each layer can circle at its own pace.

PICK A GOAL, PRESS PLAY
- De-stress: slow, wide orbits to unwind
- Focus: steady motion for deep work
- Sleep: a low, dark drift with a fade-out timer
- Overthinking: bilateral motion and gentle alternating taps

MOTION AND COMFORT, ALWAYS FREE
Choose Orbit, Sway, gentle Drift, or Still, at Gentle, Standard, or Deep intensity. If the motion ever feels like too much, dial it down or stop it entirely. These controls are never behind the paywall.

MADE FOR HEADPHONES
- True spatial audio on real 3D paths, rendered in real time
- AirPods head tracking: turn your head and the sound stays put
- Bilateral tapper: soft haptic taps alternating left and right
- Pomodoro focus mode and 2 to 60 minute session timers
- Sleep timer with a slow fade-out
- Works fully offline. Nothing streams, nothing buffers
- No account, no ads, no tracking. Everything stays on your device
