Every feature your smart mug needs, built into the Apple devices you already use. Live temperature, presets, widgets, Live Activities, Apple Watch, Siri, and more.
Free on the App Store. iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch.MugBar goes beyond temperature controls with ready-in estimates, presets, alerts, and deep integrations across iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch.
Temperature on your Home and Lock Screen, plus a presets widget that switches targets without opening the app, and Control Center buttons.
Save your own targets (Espresso, Latte, Green tea) each with its own icon and color. Tap one and MugBar sets the mug, and matches its LED ring to the preset.
A full Apple Watch app, not a remote: current temperature, ready-in estimate, target, presets, and LED color. Free, like the rest of the app.
“Check my mug.” “Set my mug to Espresso.” Build your own automations in the Shortcuts app, like a morning routine that preheats with your alarm.
A gentle notification the moment your mug hits its target, and a heads-up before the battery runs out mid-cup.
MugBar talks to your mug directly over Bluetooth. No account, no tracking, no data collected. Native Swift, push-based, easy on your battery.
Pour a fresh cup and MugBar estimates when it will land on your target: a real countdown, not a number that slowly changes. Free, you still get the live temperature and whether it’s heating, cooling, or ready.
Pour, and the countdown is already on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. No app to open. Free, you can start the same Live Activity yourself from the app or Control Center.
Everything that makes MugBar a better mug client is free and stays free. Full Access adds the two features that take the guesswork out entirely.
No account, no trial to remember, no expiry.
Or $1.99 a month. 7 days free, cancel anytime. Covers iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, and it is Family Sharing enabled.

You can. MugBar adds the features and Apple integrations that turn a basic mug controller into a complete companion.
Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, the Dynamic Island, Control Center, Apple Watch, Siri, and Shortcuts make MugBar feel at home across the OS.
Not “what temperature is it?” but “when can I drink this?” The ready-in countdown turns a reading into an answer.
No account, no sign-in, no analytics, no data collected. MugBar talks to your mug over Bluetooth and that is the whole of it.
