Knowlaxy on iPhone and iPad

Knowlaxy delivers a native iOS experience optimized specifically for Apple's ecosystem. The app integrates seamlessly with iCloud to synchronize your entire knowledge graph across iPhone, iPad, and Mac—every concept node, relationship mapping, review schedule, and custom template stays perfectly in sync. Start building a knowledge map on your iPhone during your morning commute, refine connections on iPad at lunch, and review key concepts on Mac in the evening without any manual export or import steps.

On iPhone, Knowlaxy leverages the Taptic Engine to provide haptic feedback when you create new concept nodes or discover AI-suggested relationships, reinforcing cognitive engagement through subtle tactile cues. Siri Shortcuts integration allows voice-activated workflows: "Hey Siri, start my daily review session" or "Hey Siri, show me my computer science knowledge map." Background App Refresh pre-generates spaced repetition schedules overnight, ensuring review cards are ready the moment you open the app each morning.

iPad users benefit from full multitasking support including Split View and Slide Over. You can study Knowlaxy knowledge maps while referencing research papers in Safari, or watch educational videos while simultaneously mapping key concepts. The larger Retina display showcases your entire knowledge galaxy at once, with pinch-to-zoom supporting scales from macro overviews of hundreds of nodes down to individual fact inspection. Apple Pencil support on compatible iPad models enables precise node placement and freehand annotation directly on your knowledge graphs, with palm rejection ensuring smooth interaction during extended mapping sessions.

iOS-Exclusive Intelligence Features

iCloud Knowledge Sync

Your entire knowledge universe synchronizes seamlessly across all Apple devices signed in with the same Apple ID. Every concept node, relationship mapping, spaced repetition schedule, custom template, and review statistic syncs in real-time via iCloud. Changes propagate within 2 seconds across devices, with intelligent conflict resolution handling simultaneous edits. Your knowledge graph remains accessible even if a device is lost, stolen, or upgraded.

Siri Shortcuts Integration

Launch Knowlaxy workflows with voice commands through deep Siri Shortcuts integration. Create custom shortcuts like "Start my morning review," "Show me my weakest concepts," or "Generate a map from today's notes." Pre-built shortcuts handle common tasks: daily review sessions, quick concept capture, knowledge graph statistics, and AI relationship discovery. Shortcuts appear in Spotlight search and can be added to Home Screen widgets for one-tap access.

iPad Multitasking Mastery

Full support for iPad Split View, Slide Over, and Stage Manager on iPadOS 16+. Build knowledge maps while referencing source material in Safari, Apple Books, or Files in a parallel window. Drag and drop text, images, and PDFs directly from other apps into Knowlaxy concept nodes. Apple Pencil support enables precise node placement, handwritten annotations, and gesture-based relationship drawing with palm rejection on all compatible iPad models.

Haptic Learning Feedback

The Taptic Engine provides subtle haptic feedback synchronized to learning milestones—gentle taps when creating new concept nodes, distinct vibrations when the AI suggests a relationship you accept, and satisfying confirmation pulses when completing review sessions. Haptic intensity adjusts based on your review performance: stronger feedback for difficult concepts, lighter touches for mastered material, reinforcing cognitive patterns through tactile sensation.

Background Intelligence

Background App Refresh analyzes your knowledge graph overnight, pre-generating spaced repetition schedules, discovering new semantic relationships between existing concepts, and preparing daily review sessions. Wake up to AI-curated review queues optimized for your circadian learning patterns. The system learns your peak cognitive performance times and schedules challenging reviews accordingly, with lighter material reserved for low-energy periods.

Full Offline Capability

Every feature works offline after initial setup—create concept nodes, map relationships, run AI analysis on your local knowledge graph, complete spaced repetition reviews, and export knowledge maps as PDFs. The AI relationship engine processes entirely on-device using Core ML optimization, ensuring your learning continues during flights, commutes, or anywhere without internet. Changes sync automatically when connectivity returns.

Frequently Asked Questions

Knowlaxy requires iOS 14.0 or later to run on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. The app is compatible with all iPhone models from iPhone 6s onward, all iPad models from iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 4 onward, and iPod touch 7th generation. For optimal performance including Siri Shortcuts, Background App Refresh, and advanced AI features, iOS 15.0 or later is recommended. The current version 2.8.1 is fully tested and optimized for iOS 17.

Yes, Knowlaxy is a universal iOS app fully optimized for both iPhone and iPad. On iPhone, the interface is designed for portrait orientation with one-handed navigation and compact node layouts suitable for smaller screens. On iPad, the app utilizes the larger display with expanded knowledge graph views, side-by-side template browsers, and multitasking support including Split View and Slide Over. Your progress, knowledge graphs, and settings sync instantly via iCloud between all your devices.

Knowlaxy uses iCloud to automatically synchronize your entire knowledge universe across all Apple devices signed in with the same Apple ID. Every concept node, relationship link, spaced repetition schedule, review statistic, custom template, and app setting syncs in real-time when you're connected to the internet. Changes propagate within 2 seconds under normal network conditions. If you work offline, changes are queued locally and sync automatically when connectivity returns. You can enable or disable iCloud sync in Settings > Privacy > iCloud.

Absolutely. Knowlaxy offers complete offline functionality after initial installation and sync. You can create new concept nodes, map relationships, run AI-powered semantic analysis on your existing knowledge graph, complete spaced repetition reviews, use all 47 pre-built templates, and export maps as PDFs—all without an internet connection. The AI relationship engine processes entirely on-device using Core ML optimization. Your work is saved locally and syncs to iCloud automatically when you reconnect to Wi-Fi or cellular data.

Knowlaxy's initial download from the App Store is 67 MB. After installation, the app occupies approximately 85 MB including system files and cached assets. As you build your knowledge graph and accumulate review history, storage usage grows gradually—a typical user with 500 concept nodes and 6 months of review data uses around 120 MB total. Large knowledge graphs with thousands of nodes and imported PDFs may reach 200-300 MB. The app includes a storage management tool in Settings to clear cached data if needed.

Knowlaxy provides deep Siri Shortcuts integration with both pre-built and custom shortcut support. Pre-built shortcuts include "Start daily review" (launches your spaced repetition queue), "Quick capture" (opens a blank concept node for rapid idea entry), "Show stats" (displays learning analytics), and "AI discovery" (runs relationship detection across your knowledge graph). You can create custom shortcuts in the Shortcuts app combining Knowlaxy actions with other apps—for example, "Import from Safari" to clip web articles directly into concept nodes. All shortcuts work with "Hey Siri" voice activation.

Yes, Knowlaxy is fully optimized for the latest iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and all iPad Pro models. The app leverages ProMotion displays with native 120Hz rendering for ultra-smooth knowledge graph animations and gesture interactions. On devices with the A17 Pro or M2 chip, advanced GPU acceleration ensures zero lag even when visualizing knowledge graphs with 1,000+ concept nodes. Dynamic Island on iPhone 14 Pro and newer shows live activity indicators during timed review sessions. Apple Pencil support on iPad Pro includes pressure sensitivity for relationship thickness and hover previews on iPad Pro 11-inch (4th gen) and iPad Pro 12.9-inch (6th gen).

Yes, Knowlaxy fully supports Family Sharing. When you download Knowlaxy through your Apple ID, up to five additional family members can install the app on their devices at no extra cost by accessing it through the Family Sharing section of the App Store. In-app purchases including premium template packs and the unlimited AI mapping subscription are also shareable across your Family Sharing group. Each family member maintains completely separate knowledge graphs, review histories, and app settings—there's no cross-contamination of learning data even when using the same Apple ID for purchases.

Yes, Knowlaxy supports importing from 14 different sources including Apple Notes, Notion exports, Markdown files, PDFs, web articles via the Share Sheet, Anki decks, plain text files, and more. On iOS, you can import directly from the Files app by dragging documents into Knowlaxy, or use the built-in web clipper through Safari's Share Extension to capture articles with one tap. The parser automatically extracts hierarchical structure, preserves formatting including bold and italics, converts images to inline attachments, and generates preliminary concept maps based on detected headings and semantic relationships. Batch import supports up to 500 files with background processing.

Knowlaxy is optimized for battery efficiency on iOS devices. Typical usage—creating concept nodes, mapping relationships, and completing daily reviews—consumes approximately 3-5% battery per hour on iPhone. The app uses adaptive refresh rates, reducing animation frame rates when battery saver mode is enabled. Background App Refresh operations (pre-generating review schedules and running AI analysis) are scheduled during charging periods when possible and consume less than 1% battery per night. GPU-intensive knowledge graph rendering automatically scales down on older devices to balance performance and battery life. You can monitor Knowlaxy's battery usage in Settings > Battery.
