A separate Mac companion is available from deckloud.com for desktop board work.
Built for existing Nextcloud Deck users
Connect with Nextcloud Login Flow v2 and open the boards you already have. Nothing sits between your app and your server. Any compatible Nextcloud account can sign in. No invitation or company affiliation required.

(I’m not using the pro version) So far, everything about the app works well. The UI is friendly and connecting to Nextcloud was actually fairly easy. I’m holding out hope for a decks app in the future, but until then this is a lovely replacement. The only downside I have is that sometimes text isn’t visible in dark mode for the homepage. So far it’s fixed itself, but I figured it was good to point out in case it’s a recurring issue.
Developer Response
Thanks for the detailed review! The dark-mode contrast issues you describe are on our fix list — 1.3.5 already hardened several card-detail and board-header layouts, and remaining dark-mode text bugs are being tracked. If you spot a specific screen where text disappears, a screenshot at github.com/hweihwang/nextcloud-deck-desktop-releases/issues helps us nail it.
Great so far!

Really enjoying seeing the app develop over time. There are still a few bugs, like not being able to back out of a card after it’s been edited sometimes. But, bugs like these seem to be addressed relatively quickly.I’m also happy to see that the core functionality remains intact and isn’t behind a premium subscription. Hoping it stays that way 🤞
Developer Response
Thanks for sticking with Deckloud! Markdown rendering in card descriptions (including checklists) is back as of version 1.3.5, released June 8 — your review likely landed a day before the update. Update the app and your checklists should render again. If anything still looks off, please report it at github.com/hweihwang/nextcloud-deck-desktop-releases/issues and we'll fix it fast.
No widget, nice app
Fantastic application!!
The pro subscription says there’s a widget for this app, but there isn’t. So, besides the pro subscription this app is great. Works well, just no reason to pay when the service isn’t available.
Developer Response
Thanks for calling this out. Widgets are now live: refresh widget data in Settings > Widgets & Shortcuts, then add Deckloud Home or Lock Screen widgets in iOS. Free widgets show counts; Pro unlocks card titles, due times, and deep links.
Duplicated boards now open reliably after sync finishes, so your copied projects, cards, and lists are ready without a blank board detour.
• Board filters now match assigned users more accurately across Nextcloud Deck servers
• Card edits are safer when a server sends partial data, protecting notes and descriptions during background sync
• Board menus, settings sheets, quick capture, and card controls respond more consistently to taps and scrolls
• Search, Focus, widgets, accessibility, and large board views get targeted polish for smoother daily planning
