Inclr is a powerful and versatile organizer for your iPhone, iPad and Mac that helps you stay productive, save time, and eliminate the hassle of app switching. This patented mind mapping tool enables you to organize your tasks, apps, and life into information clusters, mirroring the way your brain works. Store anything the way you want, and build your own beautiful second brain. We’ve designed an intuitive app that combines the functionality of 10+ apps in one. Our brains are wired to process visual information better than text. Using Inclr, your brain will be trained to remember data more effectively with our patented visual and spatial system. Access the information you need more easily and naturally, while boosting data cognition and retention. ------------- How Inclr Will Help You: * Organize your tasks, files, apps, notes, and projects with a single app. * Leverage the power of visualization to manage and express your ideas better. * Acts as a file manager and information cluster for your digital life. * Ideal for visual planning, organizing, and idea management. * Quickly recall any information, thanks to the power of visual memory. * Store similar types of information in one place for easy access. For example, keep all your social media links organized in one inclr using different nodes. * Build your own memory mansion or second brain – each inclr is a part of your life, visualized graphically to leave a lasting emotional imprint. It’s like recreating your memories on paper! * Organize everything – from work projects, creative writing ideas, grocery lists, to budgeting. * Boost your productivity with easy, effective organizing to simplify your life. ------------- How Inclr Works: Inclr uses graphical information clusters to store your data visually. Each inclr is customizable and themed to create emotional impressions, making memory retrieval easier and more effective. Rotating nodes function like subfolders, containing content, and by interacting with them, you also train your muscle memory, improving focus and increasing data retention. You can add as many inclrs as you need and attach any number of nodes. For example, if you’re a writer working on a new novel, you can create an inclr for your book and add a node for each character, with images, notes, and sketches for complete character development. The same process works for any project – whether it’s a business plan, a travel itinerary, or your daily to-do list. Inclr supports all file types and allows you to open them directly within the app! You can even open web links through the integrated browser. With Inclr, your iPhone, iPad and Mac becomes a powerful tool to improve productivity, streamline your workflow, and save you time by reducing the need for multiple apps. ------------- Plans: • Paid Monthly Subscription. • Paid Yearly Subscription. • iPhone Basic Subscription. • Lifetime Membership Duration of the subscription is 1 Month, 3 Months or 1 Year.
