On its release (a free update over the original Clear), you can install and open the App Store version and your beta lists will import automatically. Along with a Test Pilot exclusive app icon for your service plus a set of classic Clear collectibles.
Rewards progress and other collectibles will be reset in this import so everyone starts in the final intended fresh start.
The Clear Testflight will be phased out on release.
We hope the new Clear delivers to longtime fans, wins over new ones, and is able to establish a foothold for the kind of future this app deserves.
Thank you so much for helping us make it shine.
For final & post launch updates weāll reach out via email. (Sign up at useclear.com.)
Have a cozy winter holiday break!!

Wow. Canāt believe itās almost ready to launch! You must be really happy - and with good reason - itās a real evolution on the original, while retaining the simple magic of the original premise. Iām sure I wonāt be the only one, but Iād like to say Iāve really enjoyed being part of this test flight journey - thanks for having us all along for the ride. I guess thereās a little bit of all of the testers in the new app, and I look forward to seeing how it does. You have a loyal following, and Iām sure we all want to see it do well, so please let us know how we can help with promo etc. Best of luck, and a merry Christmas and a happy new year to everyone. Joe.
Thank you and everyone testing for joining. It would 100% still be languishing in internal TestFlight if we didnāt open up and involve everyoneās support.
Still things to fill out, polish or tweak and perhaps reconsider, but where itās landed, I feel itās a solid skeleton for its future. And thatās really all I couldāve wished for myself for Christmas.
At first I was extremely impatient and was waiting for the release in the fall, but now I am endlessly happy for everyone who tested Clear and for the wonderful developers of this beautiful app. Thank you for your tremendous work and much success! We are all holding our breath and waiting for January 8. Happy New Year!
I believe 8! I am sure there will be some thread during launch week where people collect them together, and we wonāt be a grinch about it.
I also kept thinking about this image earlier, it really is how it felt with you all sending us support in various ways or just continuing to stick with Clear all these years and keep it alive. And very aware this kind of love is quite rare and precious for a todo app!!
The app has only improved over the last few months. I loved watching the team focusing in on gestures and swipes as a way to interact with the whole app. I also really enjoy being able to paste in a series of single line items to populate a whole list. The app has all the complexity it needs but betrays none of it when all one wants is just to write a single word on a single line. Itās wonderful, good job to the team.
Thereās still one thing thatās been bugging me. The āSunsetā theme is uses the colours of āDuskā when selected. Not the biggest deal but I thought I might let you know.
Good luck with the launch, Iāve really been enjoying Clear!
Are we going to lose the themes and fonts that we did unlock through the beta in the final release ? I know you mentioned that we will lose all the rewards, but I want to make sure because thereās about 3-4 themes that I really donāt want to lose
Yeah everyone will be starting with the default set, very minimal collection. But as testers you can start with a leg up:
ā¢ Test Pilot icon for testing
ā¢ Classic app icon / Helvetica / I think sound theme set for testing or updating old Clear
ā¢ 8 launch collectibles, that will let you unlock those free/immediately during launch week
ā¢ Can use someoneās Gift Clear link for 2 themes + 1 font + 1 quote pack immediate unlock from random/rare loot pool
Then there are probably 4 or 5 rewards or so you could probably more or less snipe in the first 10 minutes if you know what youāre doing.
What were your favorites? Curious to hear!
@Wabbit will note that here in 2.0.1 list! I forget exactly what happened, I think we just renamed it but thereās two copies now. But will get to the bottom of it.
My favourite themes are: Birthday Cake, Strawberry (Itās should be named as (RED) because it looks exactly like the one in Clear 1 theme itās called RED as well), Blueberry Cream, and Vanilla Cream.
Also my favourite Font is: San Francisco Rounded. I really hope this Font will be available in the final release.
And I have two suggestions:
āin-app purchaseā to unlock all themes, Rewards, Fonts and Sounds for lifetime. this would bypass Rewards progress, and Rewards tab would disappear after this purchase and everything would get unlocked. Itās wonderful, I would pay for this in a heartbeat for everything to get unlocked.
every single theme, sound and font would be available in the shop, and we buy what we want, instead of checking the shop every day to see whatās available. Itās much better than showing random themes/fonts/sounds every 24hour, we might miss the chance to buy the one we like if we donāt check the shop every single day.
Wow. Itās really here. Thank you team for giving so many of us an opportunity to weigh in on the newest version of the app we all clearly love. Looking forward to launch!!
I am so excited for the public release! Thanks for involving and listening to the community. Clear is a truly wonderful and irreplaceable app. Happy holidays!
Got it. So on release, you are going to have to recollect these, but Blueberry Cream, Vanilla Cream, SF Rounded, you can probably speed collect as they are in the random loot drop pool.
First try someoneās gift Clear link, which has a chance to unlock some of those. Then because we didnāt have time to do any anti-cheat, you could make a list of a bunch of dummy items and check them off over and over and probably unlock all the cream themes in like 15 minutes
You know I actually had intended SF Pro Rounded as the default font in the app. But itās like 10% of people cannot handle it, I kept getting emails about it looking too childish!
Appreciate it! I feel like the new version had to win you over, but Iām glad it sounds like it did by the end. And hopefully some of that was us listening to you all along the way.
Wow, congratulations! I have been a tester since 2017, I love this application very much, a lot of work has been done in recent months, you are just crazy, in a good understanding of this word. Iām looking forward to the AppStore. Deservedly takes a place in my dock.
Omg 2017 lol. Thanks for sticking with itā¦ after some years of it parked in TestFlight it genuinely starts feeling like some delusional dream. But we felt less crazy when we realized and were reminded there were others crazy about Clear too
Happily exhausted and excited for release.
