Everything Tick can do
Powerful without being complicated. Every feature earns its place — nothing bloated, nothing missing.
Capture anything. Find it instantly.
Notes in Tick are designed to disappear into the background and let you write. Auto-save kicks in the moment you start typing — no save button, no interruptions. When you need something back, full-text search surfaces it in under a second.
- Auto-save on every keystroke — Your thoughts are safe the moment they leave your fingers.
- Tags to organise everything — Create custom tags like work, personal, ideas — and filter by them instantly.
- Pin what matters — Keep your most important notes pinned at the top, always one tap away.
- Archive instead of delete — Declutter your active list without losing anything.
- Full-text search — Every word in every note is searchable, instantly.
- Share with one tap — Send any note via WhatsApp, email, or any system share target.
Lists that keep you moving forward.
Todo lists in Tick go beyond checkboxes. Each list has its own name, due date, and progress bar — so you always know exactly how far you've come and what's left. Inline adding means new items never break your flow.
- Multiple named lists — Groceries, work projects, trip planning — each list lives separately.
- Per-list due dates — Set a deadline on each list. The calendar icon stays visible so you never miss it.
- Progress bar at a glance — See completion percentage without counting checkboxes.
- Inline add — tap and type — No modals, no extra screens. Just tap at the bottom and add.
- Today's tasks on home screen — Due today? Your pending items surface on the home screen automatically.
- Completed items stay visible — Check things off and feel the momentum — completed items don't vanish.
Describe it once. AI builds it for you.
The Ask AI tab understands natural language. Tell it what you need — a packing list, a meeting summary, a workout plan — and it produces a perfectly structured note or todo list in seconds. No formatting, no manual typing.
- Natural language input — Write "5-day Goa trip packing list" and get exactly that.
- Chooses note or todo automatically — AI detects whether your request is better as a note or a checklist.
- Works with voice too — Speak your prompt hands-free, then tap Generate.
- Fully opt-in — Other features never touch AI. Only used when you open the Ask AI tab.
- Your data stays yours — Only your prompt is sent — never your existing notes or todos.
- Save or edit before saving — Review the result before it hits your notes or todos.
Speak your mind. No typing needed.
Voice input in Tick uses your phone's built-in speech recognition. Audio is processed right on your device and converted to text — that text is all Tick ever sees. No recordings, no transmission, just fast, private transcription.
- On-device processing — Audio never leaves your phone. Uses Android's native speech engine.
- Works in notes and AI — Dictate a note directly, or speak a prompt to the AI assistant.
- Real-time transcription — Watch your words appear as you speak — no delay.
- Tap to start, tap to stop — Clean, simple controls. No accidental recording.
- Zero audio stored — We only ever receive the text transcript, never any audio file.
- Revoke any time — Remove the microphone permission from device Settings whenever you want.
Notifications that actually help.
Tick's reminder system fires whether or not the app is open. When an alert arrives, you don't need to unlock your phone to handle it — tap Mark Done to complete the todo, or Snooze 1 hr to come back later, straight from the notification.
- Note reminders — Attach a reminder to any note — pick a date, time, and how often it repeats.
- Todo due date alerts — Set a due date on a list. Get alerted when the deadline arrives.
- Repeat: once, daily, or weekly — Daily standups, weekly reviews — set once and forget.
- "Mark Done" from notification — Complete a todo without even opening the app.
- "Snooze 1 hr" from notification — Not ready? Push it back an hour with a single tap.
- Works in the background — Alarms fire even when Tick is fully closed.
Your data belongs to you. Period.
Privacy isn't a feature we added — it's the foundation. There's no account to create, no server storing your content, and no analytics watching how you use the app. Everything lives on your device and nowhere else.
- No account required — Open the app, start using it. No email, no password, no sign-up.
- All data stored locally — Notes, todos, settings — everything stays on your device.
- Zero analytics — No tracking, no behavioral data collection, no advertising.
- No crash reporting — If the app crashes, nothing is automatically transmitted.
- Delete app = delete everything — We have no copy. Uninstall and it's gone completely.
- AI is opt-in only — If you never open the AI tab, nothing ever leaves your device.
Looks great. Reads great.
Tick adapts to how you like to read. Choose dark or light — or let it follow your system. Set a global text size that applies everywhere. Clean, consistent, and easy on the eyes whether you're scanning a quick list or reading a long note.
- Dark mode and light mode — Both look polished. Neither is an afterthought.
- Follows system theme by default — Switch your phone to dark mode — Tick switches with it.
- Global text size: Small, Medium, Large — One setting applies across the entire app instantly.
- Smooth transitions — Theme changes apply without a flicker or reload.
- Edge-to-edge layout — Optimised for modern Android — content fills the screen beautifully.
- Haptic feedback — Subtle, satisfying feedback on interactions. Toggle off if you prefer.
