A real swing
Each charm hangs with real weight. Throw it and it keeps your hand's speed, then slowly settles, just like one on a rear-view mirror.
For Windows · Android coming soon
Lucky charms that hang on your screen.
Real charms on real cords, swinging gently over your work. Flick a nazar, ring a temple bell, wake a dragon, then get back to it.
Try a cord:
Brush past one with your cursor, or drag it
Real cords
Eighteen chains, ropes and threads, rendered in 3D: gold and silver chain, jute, cotton, kalava, and the blue and white of a nazar cord.
Each one does something
The ghanta rings, the dragon breathes fire, the daruma gets its eyes when you make a wish. Every charm comes with its story.
Out of your way
Clicks pass straight through to the window behind. Ctrl Alt D hides them. Nothing you do is sent anywhere.
The charms
Each one carries a tradition from somewhere in the world. Pick one to hang it up above.

Questions
Will the charms get in the way of my work?
No. Clicks pass through to whatever is behind them, except on the charm itself. Hide them any time with Ctrl Alt D, or right-click a charm and take it down.
Does it slow my computer down?
It's light. Charmly only redraws the small part of the screen the charms cover, not the whole desktop.
Why isn't it a website or browser extension?
A website lives inside its own tab and can't draw over your other windows. To hang over your whole desktop, Charmly has to be a small Windows app.
Can I hang my own photo?
Yes. Add a picture of your own and it becomes a gold locket charm. It stays on your computer and is never uploaded.
Is my data collected?
The Windows app collects nothing. The Android app shows ads in its free version; the privacy policy explains exactly what that means.
