Kase exists because it should. There should be a database app that can go anywhere with you. It should be:
• Simple — so using it should be easy and intuitive,
• Flexible — so once familiar with the basics, you can design any database to track anything important to you, and
• Relational — because you don't want to repeat yourself, and inter-linked data becomes an order of magnitude more useful.
Additionally, it should be:
• Personal — because you should not need to worry about who can peek into your data, and
• Always Available — because high-speed wireless network connection should *not* be a prerequisite for accessing your own data.
Something like that didn't exist, so I started creating Kase in 2014.
Kase is all that. It is not perfect, but it does its job well.
Basic Concepts:
• Your Kase contains Boxes;
• a Box holds related Decks;
• a Deck collects Cards;
• and a Card is where you put on data entries.
Additional Details:
• Box can be locked with a passcode, and unlocked with Face ID or Touch ID.
• Deck definitions support inheritance!
• Pick and organize Decks and Cards with categories, tags, and bookmarks.
• Highlight any box, deck, card, entry, or keyword.
• Write in Markdown and see rich formatted text.
• Use Formatters (Fx), Units to visualize data in different ways without altering the data one bit.
• Full text indexing with NLP.
• Side-by-Side: Compare Cards easily by displaying in columns.
• iPad Multitasking support: Split View, Slide Over, etc.
Kase is Not:
• Cloud syncing yet (stay tuned...)
WISD:
• Data ▹ Information ▹ Knowledge ▹ Insight ▹ Wisdom
By now you should realize how valuable data is. So why give yours away? Kase keeps your data yours.
