Access apps, Apple Shortcuts, websites and emojis on your Mac using your iPhone or iPad. choclift is the third input device you didn't know you needed in your Mac setup. It turns an iPhone or iPad into a touch (chocolate) bar that makes working with your Mac more intuitive, productive, accessible and, most of all, more fun. That last part is important, so it features a beautiful design, a satisfying user experience and plenty of chocolate references. Customize up to eight pages in your choclift bar with your favorite apps, Apple Shortcuts or website bookmarks you'd like to have just one tap away. See how tapping an app not only feels great, but also lets you perform actions like drag and drop faster and switch between apps in an instant. With "App Time Travel," you even get a new smart dock that shows you your recently opened apps, so it always adapts to your current workflow. Deliciously easy: Install choclift on both your iPhone/iPad and Mac, make sure both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network, and connect once. That’s it. With choclift’s incredibly sweet recipe, you can even connect multiple devices at the same time. Your taste, your layout: Choose the Mac apps, Shortcuts and websites your workflow can’t get enough of and arrange them in a layout that fits your needs. With the optional “Added Sugar” subscription or one-time purchase, you can unlock additional pages for your setup. Introducing Emoji Bar: Add emojis to any text on your Mac with a simple tap on your iPhone/iPad, and customize up to eight slides with your favorite emojis. Apple Shortcuts Support: Create simple to advanced Shortcuts with the Apple Shortcuts app, add them to your choclift bar, and top them with custom emojis. Add Website Bookmarks: Your favorite URLs are just one tap away. Finger Gestures: Minimize and maximize windows with two fingers or trigger actions like copy and paste in a fast and intuitive way. Gestures are executed locally through the Mac app. App Time Travel: Scroll through a timeline of your recently opened Mac apps and pin your favorites to quickly jump between workflows.

Some things are never finished for good. The trash goes out every Thursday. The water filter needs changing 180 days after the last one. The plants want water on their own schedule, not yours. Again is built for exactly those tasks — the ones that come back. GIVE EVERY TASK ITS OWN RHYTHM • On a schedule — every day, week, two weeks, month, or year, at a time you pick. • After completion — a set number of days after you actually finish it. Do it three days late and everything after shifts with you, instead of nagging you about a date that's already gone. • One-time — for the things you only have to do once. They leave when they're done. A LIST THAT SORTS ITSELF Tasks line up by when they're ready, longest-waiting first, with a marker showing where "ready now" ends and "coming up" begins. Every row tells you where it stands — ready 3 hours ago, ready in 5 days — so a glance is enough. The app icon carries a badge with the count, so you know before you even open it. Swipe a task to finish it on iPhone and iPad, or tick it off on the Mac. Either way it quietly reschedules itself for next time. WORTH LOOKING AT • Give any task an emoji, so you recognize it before you read it • Nine color schemes • Nine app icons to match, so your Home Screen matches your mood • Light, dark, or follow the system ON ALL YOUR DEVICES Again runs on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and keeps your tasks in step through your own iCloud account. There's no account to create, no password, and no server of ours in between. FREE, AND EVERYTHING FOREVER Track up to five tasks for free, with the Classic, Pride, and Trans Pride themes and matching icons. Everything Forever unlocks unlimited tasks, every color scheme, and every app icon. It's one purchase, not a subscription — buy it once, keep it, and share it with your family. PRIVACY No ads, no tracking, no analytics, no data collection. Your tasks live on your device and in your own iCloud account, and nowhere else.
