Boil time from physics

Worked out from your kettle's wattage, the water amount and its starting temperature — not a generic countdown.

Live on the Lock Screen

The countdown follows you to the Lock Screen, the Dynamic Island, widgets and Control Center. Walk away — Keetle pings you when it's ready.

How it works

Keetle uses the heat equation — t = (m·c·ΔT) / (P·η) — combining your kettle's power and efficiency with the water volume and a weather-aware starting temperature, so the estimate fits your kettle, not an average one.

Try the maths yourself → a boil-time calculator that runs in this page, no app needed.
