## What is Kalisme?

The manifesto is free. Thirteen chapters you can now read, and listen to, in fifteen languages, offline. That is the whole heart of it.

The rest is an app to live a practical philosophy by. No promise of happiness, no noise. You practice your way.

The Circle: Kalisme opens up to a few people close to you, without becoming a social network. You invite them one by one, through a link you share yourself. No account, no directory: nobody can find you. What you send is encrypted end to end on your iPhone before it leaves, the relay sits in the European Union, holds no key, and erases after seven days. Three people are included.

The Manifesto, read or heard in fifteen languages, with reading notes and chapter navigation. A reflowable reader, a mini player, the full PDF to share.

The thirteen permissions. The Manifesto reaches its fourth edition: each chapter now carries the permission it opens, no longer the principle it states.

Orbit Home: your spaces become a constellation, Kal at the center, your stars around it. You pick which to show, their order, the central one. Shake to switch back to the classic layout, or change the mood.

Four moods carry across the app, the Apple Watch and the widgets: Solar (it follows the hour), Brown and gold, Mist, Ink.

Gesture of the day, one quiet invitation that follows the light: an affirmation in the morning, a short pause in the day, three smiles in the evening. No GPS.

Kal, the companion: three messages a day, free for everyone in the app. An "App" tab answers your questions about Kalisme, on device. On device, Kal can now reach out gently, all on the iPhone, behind your consent and Face ID (iPhone 15 Pro and later).

Books: thirteen reworked books, each with its filiations under "Sources and resonances", each one versioned. Audio comes with the book you own.

Mirrors to weigh a thought. The decision compass: name a choice, weigh it on four axes, watch the needle settle where you lean.

Breathing: three modes (coherence 4-4, deep calm 4-7-8, recentering 4-6), from 60 s to 10 min, each session logged in Apple Health.

Music by Kal Records, with cross fades. The Bridge, an orientation toward real help. Notebook, Rituel, the Kaliste Path. Share a card, or the whole Manifesto.

Apple Watch: complications on the face, Orbit Home on the wrist, Kal by dictation, volume from the watch.

CarPlay: three hands-free spaces on your car screen, Kal Records, the audiobooks, and Breathing read aloud.

Fifteen languages: all of Kalisme in FR, EN, DE, IT, TR, RU, PT, ES, HI, ZH, AR, KO, JA, BN, ID. The app follows your iPhone.

Free, without limit: the Manifesto, the Notebook with its iCloud backup, the extended Apple Watch, Rituel, Breathing, Music, Mirrors, the Kaliste Path.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.0 — 2026-08-28

THE CIRCLE

Kalisme opens up to a few people close to you, without becoming a social network. You invite them one by one, through a link you share yourself. No account, no directory, no friend suggestions: nobody can find you, and there is nobody to be introduced to.

What you send is encrypted end to end on your iPhone before it leaves. The relay is hosted in the European Union, it holds no key, it carries sealed envelopes and erases them after seven days. The readable content of your thoughts never leaves your device.

Before any invitation, a screen tells you exactly what travels, to whom, and what never travels at all. You can close a link, block someone, or dissolve your Circle entirely, whenever you want.

Three people are included. A subscription raises the ceiling, it unlocks nothing else.

NEW MIRRORS

You, at work. Ten questions on what work does to your presence to yourself: permission put off until later, attention nibbled away, rest that apologises for itself.

Your Circle. A mirror on your bonds, and on the stories we tell ourselves about them.

Kalisme Quiz. More than a hundred questions across six themes, and a question of the day that changes each morning.

TRUER WORDS

Breath is now called Breathing, and Collection is now called Books. The names say what the spaces do.

The Manifesto reaches its fourth edition. The thirteen principles become the thirteen permissions: each chapter carries what you are allowed to do, not what you ought to do.

The audio of the thirteen books stays included the moment you own the book, with nothing to add.

### 1.5 — 2026-07-04

The free heart of Kalisme just grew.

The Manifesto now reads like a real book and is read aloud to you, free, in fifteen languages, offline. Flowing text, chapter by chapter, a mini player, a reading note, the full PDF to share. The part you can keep forever, you can now listen to.

A new home: Orbit
Your spaces become a quiet constellation, Kal at the center, your stars around it. Choose which to show, their order, the central one. Shake to switch back to the classic home, or to change the light. Four moods carry the whole app, your Apple Watch and your widgets: Solar (it follows the hour), Brown and gold, Mist, Ink.

Freer, on purpose
iCloud backup of your Notebook and the extended Apple Watch are now free for everyone. Support becomes what it always wanted to be: a free gift to the maker, nothing locked behind it.

Kal, closer
Three messages a day, offered to everyone in the app. An "App" tab that answers your questions about Kalisme right on your device. A yearly plan for Kal, and a first step toward a quieter presence: Kal can now begin a sentence gently, fully on your iPhone, only with your consent.

The gesture of the day
One daily invitation that follows the light. Morning, an affirmation or an intention. Midday, a pause of sixty seconds. Evening, three smiles to set down and an intention for tomorrow. No location, no noise.

Also
The Compass becomes a decision compass: name a choice, weigh it on four axes, watch where you lean. The Collection, second edition: thirteen reworked books, their sources and echoes, audio included when you own them. A new album in English and an Afro Arabic House one in Music. A larger text size for easier reading. Each widget zone now opens its feature. Search in the FAQ, and many small cares.

Regional prices are shown in the app.

### 1.4 — 2026-06-06

v1.4 · Kal learns to know you, on your iPhone alone. And Kalisme follows you everywhere.

· Kal extended. With your consent, Kal remembers what you practice, your mood, and what you choose to open (your Notebook, your exchanges). Everything is read and computed on your iPhone: these signals never leave the device. You always see what Kal looks at, you choose the sources, the time window and the frequency, and you can cut or reset it all with one gesture. Kal always cites where it gets something, and reminds you it does not have the whole story. Included in Kaliste.

· 1 month of Kaliste free. To discover Kal extended, the thirteen books of the Collection and the multilingual audio. A whole month, no credit card, no commitment, for everyone.

· CarPlay. Kalisme comes to your car screen. Three hands-free audio spaces: Kal Records, the Collection in audio playback, and Breath, whose phases are announced aloud while a golden orb follows the rhythm.

· Apple Watch · Now Playing. A screen that mirrors the audio playing on the iPhone, with volume control on your wrist.

· Audio reader. Chapters now show their title ('Axis 1 · The trap of the horizon'), in the app and on the lock screen, instead of a plain number.

· And refinements: an affirmation that follows the rhythm of the week, three clear appearance modes (sun, light, dark), new widgets, refined translations across the fifteen languages, and fixes.

### 1.3 — 2026-06-02

v1.3 · Music enters Kalisme, and the app tunes itself to your measure.

· Music · Kal Records. Thirteen tracks, one per principle, built into the app. Offline listening, lock screen included, lyrics that highlight in time. A mini player stays at the bottom and follows you from one space to another. Free.

· Your Kalisme. You choose how much the app enters your life. Three presets (Minimal, Balanced, Immersive) or a fine setting, feature by feature. Kalisme adapts to you, never the other way around.

· Continuous listening. The audio reader for the Collection books now has a persistent mini player: it stays on screen and follows you from one space to another, like Music. Control from the lock screen and Apple Watch, unified sleep timer, exact resume after an interruption.

· Rethought discovery. A one-page onboarding and a 51-second demo, replayable anytime from Settings › About.

· And many refinements: translations polished across the fifteen languages, clearer shortcuts, fixes.

### 1.2 — 2026-05-25

This version expands Kalisme in several directions without moving its reference points.

· Enriched audio reader. Sleep timer (5, 10, 15, 30, 60 minutes, or end of axis), automatic position resume per book and per language, speed adjustable in six steps from 0.5× to 2×.

· Kaliste. A new complete subscription that bundles Support, Kal · Companion without limits and full access to the thirteen books. €16.90/month or €162.99/year (≈€14/month, 20% off).

· Redesigned Notebook. Four icons in the top right: Monthly, Re-reading, Search, Constellation. The PDF export, reshaped into four daily sections (morning, practice, evening, notes), now lives in Settings › Data.

· The app follows the light. The solar theme becomes the default setting. The switch happens at the exact moment of sunrise and sunset, aligned with the ritual.

· Breath. During the session, a Kalisme mantra scrolls every thirty seconds. At the end, a sober recap reminds what the session has left.

· Privacy Policy and Terms of Use accessible directly from the subscription pages.
