Kora for iPhone · By Soniteq

Waitlist

Your studio, in your pocket.

Kora for iPhone is a real local-first studio operations app — not a stripped-down viewer. The companion to Kora's Music Production OS on Mac: capture the idea the second it hits you, see today's most urgent move on your Home Screen, and keep your whole studio in sync with your desktop.

Plan a release, run a focus session, log a client call, record a memo, and email a contact — all from your phone, all offline if you need to, all synced back to your Mac when you reconnect.

Offline-capable · Data on device · Syncs to your Mac. No account required to use the app. Auth and connection tokens are stored in the iOS Keychain — never in plain storage.

In Short

Kora for iPhone is a genuine local-first studio operations app: plan a release, run a focus session, log a client call, record an idea, build a content calendar, and email a contact — all from your phone, all offline if you need to, and all synced back to your Mac when you reconnect. The same studio you run on the desktop, shaped for the moments away from it.

Why It's Different

Most "companion apps" are read-only viewers. Kora for iPhone is a genuine studio operations app — the idea in the car, the deadline you need to see at a glance, the follow-up you can't let slip, all handled from your pocket and synced back to the desk.

Why Kora for iPhone

Eight reasons it keeps up when you step away.

This isn't a dashboard — it's studio operations that work in your hand, online or off.

Capture anything in one tap

A floating capture button turns a fleeting thought into the right thing instantly — task, follow-up, note, idea, goal, habit, project, album, or contact. Hit the mic to record a voice memo straight into a project. Nothing gets lost between the studio and real life.

Your whole studio on your Home Screen

15 Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets put your studio one glance away: today's most urgent items, your single top priority, your Top 3, follow-ups due, a live focus timer, album progress bars, habit streaks, a release countdown with a readiness bar, and more. Every widget shows live data and deep-links into the app.

It actually runs the work — not just shows it

Plan a project, album, release, or content calendar with a guided setup and a live preview before anything is created. Run structured focus sessions with methods, auto-breaks, and real analytics. Track time, build a release plan with a readiness score and dated milestones, and keep a linked-notes whiteboard that structures your notes into tasks, goals, and sessions.

Never drop a relationship

A built-in CRM keeps every contact, their role, their priority tier, and when you owe them a follow-up — auto-sorted so overdue and due-soon rise to the top. Log calls and meetings, and send a real follow-up or delivery email from your phone via your connected Gmail (or the built-in Mail composer). Kora logs the interaction and prompts the next follow-up.

Smart reminders that route you right where you need to be

Deadline reminders (with an optional day-before heads-up), follow-up nudges, and focus-session alerts fire on your schedule — and tapping one drops you straight onto the right project, album, or contact. No hunting.

Your calendar, two ways

Connect Apple Calendar and/or Google Calendar to see your real events alongside your sessions and deadlines — and, when you choose, let Kora write its session blocks and due dates back to a calendar you pick. Kora only ever manages the events it creates.

Local-first and private

Kora for iPhone works fully offline — no account required to use it. Your studio data lives on your device; cloud sign-in is optional and only there to sync with your Mac and power a few cloud features. Auth and connection tokens are stored in the iOS Keychain, never in plain storage.

In sync with your Mac

Sign in once and your projects, albums, contacts, tasks, goals, habits, sessions, time, and audio notes stay mirrored between desktop and iPhone — with automatic conflict resolution and a pre-sync snapshot you can restore if you ever need to roll back. Capture on the phone; finish on the Mac.

How It Fits Your Day

Capture on the go. Finish on the Mac.

Your studio doesn't stop when you leave the desk — and neither does Kora.

01

Capture the moment

The idea in the car, the follow-up after a coffee, the deadline you just agreed to — one tap or one voice memo and it's logged against the right project. Offline is fine; it's all on your device.

02

Sync when you reconnect

Sign in and everything mirrors to your Mac — projects, contacts, tasks, sessions, time, audio notes — with automatic conflict resolution and a restorable pre-sync snapshot for safety.

03

Finish at the desk

Back on the Mac, the captured ideas and updates are already there, ready for the deep work. Nothing got lost between real life and the studio.

9 entity types, including voice memos recorded straight into a project. Remembers your last choice.

Voice memos

Record into a project or album; play back on a seekable waveform — pin comments to exact moments.

Plan Studio

Guided setup for projects, albums, releases, or content plans — with a live preview before anything is created.

Content calendars

Auto-build a multi-week, multi-platform posting and session cadence — lean, standard, or aggressive.

Focus sessions

Pomodoro, Flowtime, Quick Task, or Deep Work — with auto-breaks, templates, intent + recap, and analytics.

Release Planner

A 0–100 readiness score plus a one-tap autoplan that lays down dated milestones across tasks, goals, and sessions.

Built-in CRM

Priority tiers, follow-up scheduling, interaction logging, and smart sorting that surfaces who needs you next.

Email from your phone

Send or draft a follow-up via connected Gmail, with a Mail composer fallback — the interaction is logged automatically.

Time tracking

A live timer or manual entry, linkable to any project, album, or contact — your focus sessions fold in automatically.

Planner

Agenda and week views that merge your calendar, sessions, scheduled tasks, due dates, habits, and goals.

Whiteboard

A linked-notes workspace that structures your notes into real tasks, goals, and sessions, with a review step.

Client review links

Upload a track and generate a shareable review link with playback and comments (paid plans).

Trust & Safety

Say this plainly: you're in control.

Private by default, on both platforms. These are commitments, not marketing.

Local-first & private

The app works offline and your studio data lives on your device. Cloud sign-in is optional.

Tokens in the Keychain

Auth and connection tokens are stored in the iOS Keychain — never in plain storage.

You control what syncs

Sync is a toggle, with a pre-sync snapshot you can restore if you ever need to roll back.

Only its own calendar events

Kora writes only the session blocks and due dates it creates — it never edits the rest of your calendar.

Who It's For

Built for the studio that doesn't stay at the desk.

Working music professionals who run their studio out of Kora on the Mac and need it to keep up when they step away.

In the car

The idea that can't wait until you're back

One tap or a voice memo captures it against the right project — so the hook you heard at a red light is still there tonight.

At a coffee

The follow-up with a supervisor or client

Log the meeting, send the follow-up email from your phone, and let Kora schedule the next nudge before you've left the table.

Between rooms

The deadline you need to see at a glance

A Home Screen widget shows today's single most urgent move and the release countdown — no app-opening, no hunting.

"Can I subscribe inside the iPhone app?"
