Corkly › Desktop widgets
A cute desktop widget for your notes, photos and countdowns
Corkly turns a corner of your screen into a tiny corkboard — always there, never in the way.
A widget that actually does something
Most desktop widgets show the weather. Corkly’s widget is a small, living corkboard: today’s checklist, a sticky note for later, a photo you love and a countdown to the weekend — all in one little window in the corner of your screen.
Switch to the full window when you want room to think, and back to the widget when you don’t.
Make it match your desk
11 board surfaces
Cork, pink cork, kraft paper, green or navy felt, chalkboard, night slate, graph paper, dot paper, pegboard and linen.
7 frame colors
Walnut, light oak, whitewash, ebony, sage, blush and ocean — so it fits a minimal setup or a cozy one.
Want just the board? Hide the toolbars and only your pins stay on screen.
