In a world full of noise, it is hard to hear your own voice. Ikigai is not just another note-taking app. It is a sanctuary for deep reflection, designed to help you discover your reason for being. Based on the ancient Japanese philosophy, it guides you to structure your thoughts across four essential pillars of life.
WHY IKIGAI?
We designed this app for those who seek more than just a to-do list. With a minimalist "Deep Space" interface and meditative, fluid animations, Ikigai creates the perfect atmosphere for introspective writing.
THE 4 PILLARS OF REFLECTION: • Passion: What do you love? What sparks joy in your soul? • Mission: What does the world need? How can you contribute? • Profession: What can you be paid for? What sustains you? • Vocation: What are you good at? Where do your talents lie?
PREMIUM FEATURES:
Living Interface Experience a background that breathes. Powered by custom Metal Shaders, the app features a fluid, organic light display that reacts to time, creating a calming environment for your thoughts.
Total Privacy Your thoughts belong to you alone. Secure your journal with FaceID or TouchID. An automatic privacy screen hides your content the moment you switch apps.
iCloud Sync Start writing on your iPhone, continue on your iPad. Your entries are automatically and securely synced across all your devices via CloudKit.
Ep Data Freedom You are in control. Export your entire journal to a beautifully formatted text file with a single tap to share or archive your memories.
ADDITIONAL HIGHLIGHTS:
Haptic feedback for a tactile experience.
Interactive onboarding with philosophical insights.
