## Description

Give Shortcuts memory. Store global variables, sync with iCloud, and automate across sessions.

Make your local variables global — across Shortcuts, devices, and time.

Loccali gives Apple Shortcuts the one thing it's missing: persistent, global storage. With Loccali, you can store data that survives between runs, across automations, and even across devices — without resorting to workarounds or iCloud Drive hacks.

What It Does:
- Store key-value data outside of individual shortcuts
- Retrieve or update that data from any shortcut
- Sync variables via iCloud across iPhone, iPad, and Mac
- Store more complex data types (arrays, locations, dates, files)

Free Version Includes:
- Store up to 10 variables
- Supports Text (up to 256 characters), Booleans, and Positive Integers
- Instant Shortcuts integration via native actions
- Clean, simple UI for direct variable management

Pro Unlocks:
- Unlimited variables
- Full support for:
    - Text (no limit)
    - Integers & Decimals (positive and negative)
    - Arrays (e.g., JSON-style lists)
    - Dates and Locations
    - Files (store and retrieve files via Shortcuts)
- More flexibility for serious automation workflows

Available as:
- Monthly auto-renewable subscription
- Yearly auto-renewable subscription (best value per month)
- One-time lifetime unlock

Already bought Pro? You're set — your original purchase keeps unlocking the full Pro feature set you paid for, forever, no subscription required.

Privacy:
- Your variables stay on your device and in your private iCloud — never uploaded to our servers
- Anonymous usage analytics and crash diagnostics via Firebase to help us fix bugs
- Free tier shows a rewarded ad when you reach the daily action cap (iPhone and iPad only — Mac is ad-free)
- Pro removes ads entirely

Who This Is For:
- Automation enthusiasts
- Shortcuts power users
- Developers who want real persistence across Shortcuts
- Anyone who's hit the limits of "magic variables" or built clunky workarounds
Note: "Magic variables" are Shortcuts' built-in auto-generated values — they're convenient but temporary. Loccali gives you real, persistent ones.

Loccali is not for everyone — but if you know what a global variable is, this is probably for you.

No noise. Just clean, script-free state management for your Shortcuts.

If you use Shortcuts seriously, this belongs in your toolbox.
