Clarity is a decision journal for people who want to actually learn from their choices, not just remember they made them. Every decision you log gets a category, a status, and a place in the bigger picture of what you're working toward. Over time, Clarity turns that record into charts and patterns you can see, so you can tell whether the choices you've been making are actually working. FEATURES Decision Logging — capture the decision, your reasoning, and the outcome once you know it. Goal Alignment — tag each decision to the goal it supports, so you can see where your effort is really going. Visual Charts — track your decisions over time with built-in charts and breakdowns. Status Tracking — mark decisions as Pending, Decided, Revisited, or Resolved as they play out. Smart Sorting — filter and sort by category, status, or date to find what you're looking for. Decision Reminders — set a local reminder to revisit a decision and check how it turned out. Custom Themes — pick a look that fits you. Fully Offline — everything runs on your device, now with full support for iPad. Clarity collects zero personal data. There's no account, no cloud sync, and no server involved — everything you enter stays on your device, and uninstalling removes it for good. Use it to weigh a career move, a big purchase, or just to get a clearer picture of your own decision-making over time.

In the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), the perceiving (P) personality type is flexible, open to new experiences, and adaptable. People with a perceiving personality type tend to have a lot of spontaneous ideas and impulses. They might act on them without rational analysis, leading to distractions and a scattered focus. 「IdeasTick」 helps you build a “slow system” by creating an objective “repetition judgment mechanism” that allows those fleeting ideas to settle. Over time, impulsive thoughts are verified and transformed into rational decisions. Core Features: - Unlimited Events Tracking - Automatic iCloud Backup - Home Screen Quick Addition Use Cases: - Feeling tired of the repetitive nature of your job and considering quitting every month? Record it and visualize how strong your desire to leave is. - Wondering if a professional training course is worth your time? Record it, and once the “certification thought” reaches 10, take action. - Have an idea for a side business but want to hold off on acting immediately? Record it, and once the count hits 10, analyze its feasibility. - Trying to quit smoking gradually? Track your weekly cigarette count and visualize your progress with helpful feedback. 「IdeasTick」 is perfect for situations when your ideas start accumulating. When the thoughts start counting, life is much easier. Product Advantages: • Anti-fragmentation Management: Turns scattered thoughts into a visual decision-making tool. • Lower Trial-and-Error Costs: Filters out 90% of impulsive ideas through time and reflection. • Data Privacy: Your thoughts are exclusively yours, stored locally on your device and iCloud, ensuring your privacy.
