Thank you for visiting our store. We sincerely appreciate your feedback and will do our best to update and improve any areas that may be lacking. QWERTY mini works as a local keyboard. No data is collected. Unlike standard QWERTY (26 keys), QWERTY mini reduces the layout to just 16 keys in 2 rows, keeping typing natural and efficient. Main Features Double tap: easily input the second character of each key. Simultaneous tap: quickly input the first or second character using 4 edge keys. (Example: O + T/G = T, L + T/G = G) Why not standard QWERTY? (26 keys) Designed for typewriters and ten-finger typing, the QWERTY keyboard has too many small keys on smartphones. This causes frequent typos, slower typing speed, and high finger fatigue. QWERTY mini solution (16 keys) Key size increased by 66% (25% wider, 33% taller) Comfortable thumb movement on mobile screens Faster typing with fewer errors Note International patent application (PCT/KR2025/099177), published under WIPO.

Echologue: A Private Voice Journal You Can Ask Later Most journals are great for capture and terrible for retrieval. Echologue turns raw voice notes and daily entries into a structured memory you can actually ask about later. CAPTURE Use voice when typing is too much friction. Record what happened, who was there, how it felt, and the small thoughts you don't want to lose. Echologue handles the structuring. ASK YOUR HISTORY Entries become retrievable memory instead of dead text. Ask about a person, trip, mood, or time period and get an answer grounded entirely in what you actually recorded: * "What were the highlights of my trip in Barcelona?" * "How do I usually feel around this person?" * "What small insights keep coming back?" FACTS + FEELINGS Echologue separates objective facts from your emotional states, extracts people and themes, and indexes entries. By keeping what happened and how you felt distinct, your recall stays trustworthy instead of vague. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ 100% LOCAL-FIRST PRIVACY Your personal archive shouldn't be a cloud database. * On-Device Storage: Your journal history, semantic memory, and profiles live exclusively on your device's local database. * Zero-Retention AI: When AI helps structure an entry or answer a question, the processing is strictly ephemeral. Data is sent securely for processing and deleted immediately. It is never logged or used for training. Total Portability: You own your data. Export to JSON/CSV, or wipe your archive completely at any time. No account required.
