Why Quire Desktop

Everything you need, nothing in the way

Built for people who live in Quire all day and want it to feel like a real native app.

🔔

Native notifications

Instant desktop alerts for assignments, comments, due dates and status changes — even when the window is hidden.

☀️

Morning digest

Start each day with a single summary of everything due today, so you can prioritize before the noise begins.

🎯

One-click navigation

Click a notification and land precisely on the task — or the exact comment that triggered it. No tab juggling.

📶

Offline-ready sync

Keeps working when your connection drops and catches up automatically the moment you're back online.

🔒

Privacy-first

Secure OAuth sign-in with zero data collection. Your tokens stay on your machine — nothing is harvested.

System tray

Tuck Quire into the tray and keep it a keystroke away without cluttering your taskbar.

v3.8.7

What's new in this release

  • Notification sound picker. Choose from six toast sounds — or go fully silent.
  • Lead-time reminders fixed. "N minutes before" settings now save reliably, with visible feedback if anything goes wrong.
  • Self-healing connection. The app now recovers automatically after network outages and system sleep — no more silent drop-offs.
  • Instant notifications. Removed a hidden 1.5–3 second delay before every toast.
  • 2026 design refresh. Dark UI in Quire's native palette, instant-apply settings, and a slim progress bar instead of a loading screen.
