Leave unfinished things for tomorrow. Make room for tonight. PARKit keeps the thoughts, tasks, and loose ends you want to remember, so you can put them aside when the day is done. Capture what is on your mind in keyword clouds. Add notes for the details, remove what you have finished, and park the rest for tomorrow. CAPTURE THROUGHOUT THE DAY Create a cloud with a short keyword or phrase. Tap once to view or add a note. Tap twice to remove it when it no longer needs your attention. PARK WHAT REMAINS At the end of the day, hold the orb and follow the breathing ritual. Your clouds fade from view as the orb goes to sleep. Your keywords and notes stay saved. You do not have to finish everything to finish your day. RETURN WHEN YOU ARE READY Hold the orb to open what you parked. Your clouds return with their notes, ready for you to pick up where you left off. MAKE IT PART OF YOUR DAY Use OPEN and PARK reminders to make time for the ritual. Start with two active clouds for free. Subscribe to PARKit Access for up to 12 active clouds and custom reminder times. YOUR THOUGHTS STAY PRIVATE Your clouds and notes are stored on your device, not on a server. No account required. PARKit Access is available as a monthly or yearly subscription. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled. Manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings.
