About

Klic

Klic is a board for the thoughts you only need for the next few hours. Not an archive. Not a system you have to maintain. Just a place to put the thing you are afraid of forgetting — the callback number, the idea from the shower, the three things left before you can close the laptop. Write it, glance at it, delete it. A BOARD, NOT A LIST Notes live anywhere you drop them. Drag them around, resize them by the corner, push one behind the others when it stops mattering. Spatial memory does the filing for you, so you find things by where they are instead of by scrolling. MADE TO BE THROWN AWAY Deleting is the point, not the accident. One tap and the note is gone — with a small burst of confetti, because finishing something should feel like finishing something. Changed your mind? The last ten deleted notes are kept, and any of them comes back with one tap. ALWAYS IN SIGHT Put your board on the Home Screen with the widget and read your notes without opening anything. Pin the one note that really matters to the Lock Screen and the Dynamic Island with a Live Activity — it stays there until you are done with it. THREE COLORS, ON PURPOSE Yellow, red, blue. Enough to separate urgent from later from maybe, few enough that you never stop to decide. Light and dark themes both look right. YOUR NOTES STAY YOURS No account. No sign-up. No cloud. Everything is stored on your device. Export the whole board to a file whenever you want and import it back on another device. ALSO INSIDE • Resize any note to fit what you wrote • Copy a note's text in one tap • Send a note to the back of the stack • Keyboard bar for moving and deleting lines fast • Undo history for deleted notes • Full export and import as a single file Klic is for short-term memory, not long-term storage. If you want a second brain that keeps everything forever, there are great apps for that. This one is for today.

Most notes apps give you a list. Lists are where things go to be forgotten. CustosNotes keeps the note where you cannot miss it: the top of your screen. Hold the circle, say the thing, let go. Then tap once and that note stays pinned — in the Dynamic Island, on your Lock Screen, in your status bar — until you decide it is done. HOW IT WORKS • Hold the circle and speak. One button, no menus, no cursor to find. • Your phone's own recogniser writes it down, in your language. • Let go and the note lands. It starts switched off; you choose which ones earn a spot up top. WHERE IT STAYS • Dynamic Island — the mark and the time, beside the camera (iPhone 14 Pro and later). • Lock Screen — the whole note, readable without unlocking. • Live Activities & Status Bar — pinned notifications and status updates that stay visible until you dismiss them. REMINDERS, WITHOUT THE CEREMONY Tap the clock, spin the dial, done. It saves as you turn. No date to pick — a time that has already passed means tomorrow — and nothing to confirm. ALSO • Type instead of speaking, for when you cannot talk. • English and Spanish, app and mic together. • Dark mode that follows your phone. • No account, no sign-up, no server. Your notes live on your phone. CustosNotes does one thing. It makes sure you do not forget it and your data does not get out of your device.
