## What is ZENUG?

ZENUG. is not a task manager. It is a loop closer.

Open loops — the unfiled claim, the unanswered message, the payment you meant to check — quietly drain you. ZENUG. ends them, three a day.

THE RULES ARE THE PRODUCT
• Max three loops a day. You don't choose them. You close them.
• Close three and the day is cleared — even when the list isn't empty. One more is invited, never demanded. Enough, on purpose.
• Every loop shows its real cost (~5 min) and its first physical move: "Put your hand here."
• Swipe to close, swipe to let go — the same gesture everywhere. Or open a card for Done, Later, Start, and Assist.

SPEAK IT, DON'T TYPE IT
Tap the mic — it sits under your thumb — and talk. ZENUG. transcribes on the device and, when you're done, you choose: turn it into loops, or keep it as a journal entry. Your audio never leaves the phone that recorded it — it is never synced and never backed up. Speak any of 22 languages, or let Automatic listen in two at once and keep whichever heard you better. And if you'd rather keep every um and stumble, tidying has an off switch.

NOTHING'S EVER LOST
Your loops and your journal follow you. Everything syncs privately through your own iCloud — a new phone, and it's all still there. ZENUG has no server in that path and never sees a word. Ask your journal in plain words — "what did I say about the plumber?" — and it finds the moment.

CLOSE IS A FEELING
Every loop is an open ring that closes when you do. No points. No streaks — a broken streak on an anxious day helps nobody. Just one quiet line on a cleared board: "142 loops closed since July." Evidence, not a score.

ON YOUR WRIST, AND IN YOUR DAY
Capture and close from the Apple Watch app — a thought caught at the bus stop is a loop by the time you're home. And tap the date to see your day: your real Apple Calendar, right behind the board, so you know what's already in the way.

MADE TO LOOK AT, MADE TO READ
Nine themes. Type set with care — with reading fonts, adjustable text size, and a dyslexia-friendly option. Nothing that blinks. One quiet nudge a day. Nothing else.

ZENUG+ — OPTIONAL SUBSCRIPTION
Turn the AI on and your loops arrive ready-made: each one ranked with the reason it matters now ("money owed, late fees start tomorrow"), sized in minutes, first move already written. Nothing to configure, no keys to paste — it runs on ZENUG's own backend.

Plainly: ZENUG+ sends the transcript of what you said — the whole thing, not just the task — to the AI that turns it into loops. It is used to answer, then dropped: not stored, not kept, not used to train anything. With the AI off, nothing leaves the phone at all, and capture, your board and your journal all still work.

The app is fully functional without it. Manual entry, voice capture, the daily board, the journal, and sync work with no account and no purchase.

Less, but better.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.6 — 2026-08-14

Your words, exactly as you said them.

Tidying now has an off switch. Turn it off and every um, every stumble, every half-finished sentence stays exactly as it left your mouth.

The mic tells the truth. If capture stalls — earbuds pulled out, a call barging in — the screen says so and offers to resume, instead of quietly recording nothing.

Put a loop in the day. Tap an empty slot and a loop becomes a real block, written into a calendar ZENUG makes for itself and never into yours. Off until you turn it on.

A ninth world: Wake the Stars — the living night sky from our game, free to everyone.

And a plain page in Settings that says exactly what leaves your phone, what doesn't, and why.

### 2.4 — 2026-07-29

Your day, on your Home Screen.

Today's three loops live on the Home and Lock Screen now — and you can close one without opening the app.

Pick a loop up and it stays on your Lock Screen until it's done. Just the first move, nothing else. No timer, no countdown, no score.

"Hey Siri, what's on my board?" Add and close loops from Shortcuts. A capture button in Control Centre and on the Action Button.

Your data — a new page in Settings that says plainly where your words go, and why we can't read them.

And if something's in your way, there's now a button to tell us.

### 2.3 — 2026-07-21

Your loops now follow you. Everything syncs privately through your own iCloud — a new phone, and your journal is still there. Nothing ever reaches us.

Also new:
• Make it yours: six accent colours — and the whole app takes on the light of the one you choose.
• A mic that's always under your thumb — capture from anywhere on the board.
• Swipe to close, swipe to let go — the same everywhere.
• Decide after you speak: keep it as a journal, or turn it into loops.
• English and German, with an Automatic mode that hears both.
• Reading fonts and text sizes, including a dyslexia-friendly one.
• Your calendar, right behind the date.
• An Apple Watch app — capture and close from your wrist.
• New here? Your first loop is already on the board — closing it takes one tap.

Three a day. Then you're done.

### 2.1 — 2026-07-17

• Speak a loop out loud in any language — ZENUG writes it down.
• A cleaner board: finished loops fold away, so you only see what's still open.
• Preview all six glass themes; keep your favourite with ZENUG+.
• Lighter and simpler under the hood.

### 2.0 — 2026-07-16
