Getting started

How to use Fylix

From first launch to your first talk — up and running in under two minutes.

First time setup

1

Install on both devices

Download Fylix on your iPhone. The Apple Watch app installs automatically alongside it.

2

Open the iPhone app

Fylix connects to your Apple Watch automatically in the background — no configuration needed.

3

Create your first schedule

Tap the + button in the top-right corner to start building your presentation.

Creating a schedule

1

Tap + to create

A new schedule sheet opens. Give your presentation a name — e.g. "Tech Conference Talk".

2

Add sections

Tap Add Section. Give each part of your talk a name (e.g. "Introduction") and a duration in minutes and seconds.

3

Reorder if needed

Drag sections up or down to change the running order. Changes are saved immediately.

4

Tap Add to save

Your schedule is saved and synced to your Apple Watch automatically.

Using the Watch timer

1

Open Fylix on your Watch

Your schedules appear automatically. Tap the one you want to run.

2

Tap Start

The timer begins on the first section. Your wrist shows the section name, time remaining, and a progress bar.

3

Feel the checkpoints

At 50% of each section your Watch pulses once (halfway warning). At 100% it pulses again (section complete). Silent and private.

4

Skip or pause if needed

Tap the skip button to jump to the next section. Tap Pause to hold — the timer resumes exactly where it stopped.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an Apple Watch to use Fylix?

No. The iPhone app includes a full-screen timer so you can run presentations without a Watch.

My schedule isn't appearing on my Watch. What should I do?

Make sure both apps are open and your iPhone and Apple Watch are near each other. Open the Fylix iPhone app — this triggers an automatic sync. The schedule should appear on your Watch within a few seconds.

Can I edit a schedule mid-presentation?

Yes — edit on your iPhone and the Watch will receive the update. Changes are synced automatically whenever both devices are connected.

What happens if my iPhone disconnects during a presentation?

The Watch timer runs completely independently once started. A disconnection indicator appears on screen but the timer continues without interruption.

Will the timer keep running if my Watch screen turns off?

Yes. Fylix uses a wall-clock anchor rather than a tick counter, so the timer stays accurate even when the display sleeps.

Does Fylix use any of my data or send anything to the internet?

No. All data stays on your devices. There are no accounts, no cloud sync, no analytics, and no network requests of any kind.

How do I delete a schedule?

On the schedule list screen, swipe left on any schedule and tap Delete.
