A winter night in a courtyard with plum branches under the moon; a panda sleeps on the stones.

INK PANDA

A panda asleep in an ink painting, keeping you quiet company.

The painting changes with the seasons and the light. While you focus, rest or drift off to the sound of a stream, the panda is right there.

SEASONS

One stream, four seasons

Quiet Creek, the free scene, changes with the season and the hour: spring mist at dawn, summer rain, warm autumn afternoons, light snow at a winter dusk. Sometimes the panda sleeps; sometimes it sits up to look at you.

春Spring · morning mist
夏Summer · light rain
秋Autumn · afternoon
冬Winter · dusk snow

Every image here is rendered live in the app. None of it is illustration.

MORE SCENES

Six Pro scenes, from southern gardens to the Seine

Blue-green mountains, a garden in bloom all year, a riverside bench in Paris, and three ink-wash courtyards. Each has its own seasons, light and sounds. The panda simply sleeps somewhere new.

COMPANY

It never hurries you. It is simply there.

01

A landscape of your own

Seven ink-wash scenes, from a mountain creek to a moon gate and plum shadows on a wall. Each one changes with the season, the hour and the weather.

  • Light cycles let seasons and times of day move on their own
  • Pause the rotation to keep the moment you love
  • Tints and night palettes, from full color to pure ink
02

Quiet timers

Focus, read or rest. The panda naps in the painting while your timer runs and stays with you on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. When time is up, it slowly wakes.

  • Live Activity and Dynamic Island
  • Adult and cub pandas both come along
  • Start with Siri or Shortcuts
03

Sounds of the hills

Every scene has its own soundscape: streams, rain, pine wind, a distant temple bell. Mix the layers, or choose a bedtime track that fades as you fall asleep.

  • Ambience and music mixed separately
  • Keeps playing when you leave the app or lock the phone
  • Picks up again when you come back
