Deckloud is the native iPhone and iPad app for Nextcloud Deck. Open the boards you already have on your own server, or start a free managed workspace in seconds. A separate Mac companion is available from deckloud.com for desktop board work. Two ways to start • Your own server: sign in with Nextcloud Login Flow v2 and open your existing boards. The connection runs directly between the app and your server, with no relay backend in between. Any compatible Nextcloud account works—no invitation or company affiliation required. • Deckloud Cloud: tap Use Deckloud Cloud for a free private workspace. No email address, no password, and no registration form. Deckloud runs the Nextcloud server for you, and you can link up to three devices.

Everything you need on mobile • Create and organize boards, sections, and cards • Start a new board from a template, or build your own • Set due dates, labels, assignees, and reminders • Add comments, Markdown descriptions, and attachments • Search boards and cards with advanced filters Native on iPhone and iPad iPad layouts support portrait, landscape, resizable multitasking windows, the share extension, and Extra Large Home Screen widgets. Private by design Credentials stay in iOS Keychain. No ad SDKs, no person profiles, and only privacy-limited product diagnostics. On your own server, board and card content stays on your own Nextcloud infrastructure and no relay backend sits in between. Deckloud Cloud content is stored on Deckloud-managed Nextcloud infrastructure. Connections use TLS and backups are encrypted, but content is not end-to-end encrypted. Delete a Cloud account and its content from Settings at any time. Reliable even when offline Changes queue locally if your connection drops and sync when you are back online. Check queue health and retry from Settings. Deckloud Pro (one-time purchase—no subscription) • Quick Capture targets and templates with due offsets, labels, assignees, and context • Due reminders that open the card or Today queue • Repeat templates that create the next card when Deckloud opens • Timed Focus sessions for 10, 25, or 45 minutes, including a Pomodoro-style sprint • Advanced iOS widgets with card titles and deep links Deckloud Cloud is a separate free plan and does not unlock Pro. Requirements • Deckloud Cloud needs no server setup • For your own server: Nextcloud with the Deck app installed • Deck 1.6 or later is required for full write support • Deckloud actively verifies maintained Nextcloud releases with their matching Deck release • Nextcloud 23–31 is legacy best effort; a new Nextcloud major remains preview until verified Deckloud is an independent client and is not affiliated with Nextcloud GmbH.
Nextcloud Attendance
Read full descriptionHide full description
Know who is coming – to every rehearsal, training session and meeting. Attendance collects replies up front, records who actually turned up at check-in, and breaks every response down by your groups. All on your own Nextcloud server. SELF-CHECK-IN BY QR CODE OR NFC Put a printed code on the door or stick an NFC tag beside it. People scan or tap as they arrive and the attendance list fills itself. One code covers every appointment – the app matches the scan to whichever one is running. Nobody stands at the entrance with a list any more. PUSH NOTIFICATIONS New appointments, reminders and replies arrive right away. Your server encrypts the message; our relay only forwards it and cannot open it. ANSWER ON THE GO • Yes, no or maybe with one swipe, with an optional comment • Change or withdraw a reply at any time • Unanswered appointments first, the count as a badge on the icon • Response summary by group and team, with everyone's comments CREATE AND MANAGE APPOINTMENTS • Recurring appointments: daily, weekly or monthly • Category, location and a description with Markdown • Attachments straight from Nextcloud Files • Restrict visibility to individual people, groups or teams • Response deadlines, automatic reminders, guests invited by email • Copy, cancel, close and reopen appointments CHECK PEOPLE IN • Search by name, filter by status • One tap per person, sorted by group or team • Check-in summary right inside the appointment FOR EVERY KIND OF GROUP Choir, orchestra, sports club, fire brigade, congregation, volunteers: the app shows not only how many are coming but who, from which group. Twelve yeses do not help when the basses are missing. ALSO IN THE APP • Several Nextcloud accounts side by side • Calendar subscription for Apple Calendar, Google Calendar or Outlook • Light and dark, following your system YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS • Everything lives on your own Nextcloud server • Sign-in through Nextcloud Login Flow: your password never reaches us • No account with us, no trackers, no ads, no third-party SDKs • Credentials encrypted in the device keychain WHAT YOU NEED A Nextcloud server running version 32 or later with the free Attendance app installed, and your own account on it. NFC check-in needs a device with an NFC reader. PRICING Free for 30 days, no payment details. After that a personal licence just for you, or one licence covering your whole Nextcloud – every licence includes every feature. The Nextcloud app itself stays free and open source, with or without the mobile app. Terms of use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Additional terms: https://anwesenheit.app/terms-app Privacy policy: https://anwesenheit.app/privacy-app
