Klacky는 손끝이 심심할 때 가볍게 꺼내 누르는 피젯 앱입니다. 작은 키보드 스위치를 화면 위에 놓고, 눌러보고, 바꿔보고, 다시 눌러보세요. 딸깍거리는 소리와 살짝 돌아오는 햅틱, 눌렸다 올라오는 움직임이 짧은 손장난처럼 이어집니다. 복잡한 목표는 없습니다. 무언가를 완성해야 하는 앱도 아닙니다. 그냥 마음에 드는 키캡과 스위치, 플레이트를 고르고 손끝에 맞는 리듬을 찾아보는 작은 놀이에 가깝습니다. 할 수 있는 것 • 키캡, 스위치, 플레이트 조합하기 • 스위치를 원하는 위치에 배치하기 • 레이아웃을 슬롯에 저장하고 다시 불러오기 • 사운드와 햅틱을 켜고 끄기 • 화면을 정리하는 잠금 모드로 누르는 감각에만 집중하기 한 번 누르고 닫아도 좋고, 여러 개를 배치해두고 천천히 눌러도 좋습니다. Klacky는 주머니 속 작은 피젯 토이처럼, 잠깐의 빈틈을 손끝으로 채우는 앱입니다. 계정 없이 사용할 수 있으며, 레이아웃과 설정은 기기 안에 저장됩니다.
