Kandou: Quotes & Inspiration

Kandou (感動): the feeling of being deeply moved. That's what a great quote can do.

Kandou is where you keep the words you don't want to forget, meet timeless wisdom hand-picked for you, and start every day with a quote worth remembering, right on your Home Screen.

◆ START WITH A LIBRARY OF WISDOM
Kandou comes with a curated library of public-domain quotes, so it's beautiful and useful the moment you open it. Enjoy 25 hand-picked favorites for free, then unlock 100+ more with Kandou Pro, organized into themed collections: Stoic Wisdom, Motivation, and Love. Add a whole collection to your rotation with a single tap.

◆ COLLECT WHAT MOVES YOU
Save any quote with its author or source. Assign it to a custom category, or leave it uncategorized. Your collection, your rules.

◆ ORGANIZE YOUR WAY
Create unlimited categories with custom colors, icons, and emojis. Browse your entire library and search instantly across quotes, authors, and categories.

◆ DAILY INSPIRATION ON YOUR SCHEDULE
Set your quotes to rotate automatically: daily, every other day, weekly, or at up to 4 custom times per day. Open the app to a clean, focused view of the quote that matters right now.

◆ HOME SCREEN WIDGETS
Add a Kandou widget to your Home Screen and see your quotes at a glance. It syncs with your rotation schedule, so there's always something fresh to read. Unlock Kandou Pro for medium and large widgets (plus an extra-large one on iOS 27), personalized with your own photo, fonts, sizes, and colors.

◆ SHARE AS IMAGE & WALLPAPER
Turn any quote into a beautiful image, ready for Pinterest, Instagram Stories, and more. Choose your favorite font and size for free, or unlock Kandou Pro to place quotes on your own photos, in a soft band or subtitle-style text, and design bold cards in your colors. Love a quote? Save it straight to your Photos and set it as your wallpaper.

◆ SAFE IN ICLOUD, YOURS TO KEEP
Your quotes sync through your private iCloud, so they follow you to a new iPhone and come back after a reinstall. Free for everyone, with no account to create. Want a copy you control? Export your whole collection as a backup file or a readable text archive, and import it on any iPhone. Importing only adds what's missing and never deletes anything.
