What is asked of you today.

When the bell calls, give.

The Phone Bell

Free • iPhone

This Apple Shortcut sends a solitary flash of light from your iPhone at unpredictable moments through the day, beginning at sunrise and falling quiet by sunset.

To start it each morning, add it to an Automation in the Shortcuts app that runs it at Sunrise.


The Physical Bell

Coming Soon

Seven times a day, at completely unpredictable intervals between dawn and dusk, it emits a warm pulse of light, a quiet reminder to check in with today's deed.

Adjust the deeds to match your life and convictions.

Offering unhurried presence, deep listening, and time.
Physical offerings of repair, sharing, stewardship, and practical service.
Inner offerings of goodwill, perspective, and silent grace. Some deeds are done where no one can see them.

At least one theme must remain active to receive a daily deed.

A quiet practice of daily giving.

What it is

Each day, Deedbell draws one deed: a small, concrete act of giving, meant for others, the world, or yourself. Keep it in mind through the day, or let a bell call you back to it. What you do with it is yours.

The premise

Most of what we're offered for a better life turns us inward: track your sleep, count your steps, audit your habits. Deedbell leans on an older idea, one that shows up in nearly every tradition people have kept: we're shaped less by studying ourselves than by what we give.
