Developer Evan You from New York City loved the Clear iOS app so much he decided to replicate the app with HTML5, and was able to get a neat demo completed in just two days. He demonstrated the app in a video posted to his Vimeo earlier this morning.
A HTML5 replica of the awesome Clear iphone app (UI only). I was fascinated by the innovative gesture controls and wanted to see if I can implement the look and feel in HTML5 using CSS3 transitions. Didn’t get 100% of the details, and there are a lot of bugs, but it looks pretty close.
The demo works fairly well on your iOS device, and should give anyone curious about the Clear iOS app a good indication of how it works. The ‘pull to create item’ is a spot on replica of the iOS app. Just visit this URL from your iPhone: http://clear.youyuxi.com/ or watch the demo video below:

*Sigh* This just show how superficial “Clear” really is. It is a “todo” list for hipsters who are so wealthy that they don’t need to work for a living. Even the Reminders app built into iOS 5 has better functionality.
Wealthy hipster… Seriously? You have to be wealthy to buy iOS apps now? I wasn’t aware of this. /rant
I have a few note taking apps that I use for different reasons/tasks. I absolutely LOVE this one and have been using it regularly over the past 2 or 3 days. The UI is so simple and efficient that jotting down some quick to-dos is a pinch (literally) so I can get on with waisting my time on other things instead of note-taking. +1 for the sounds as well they compliment the experience well, making an audio confirmation that you did or didn’t do the right gesture.
So useful all in all I would say. But if it pleases you, I can go put on some thick black rimmed glasses and take a moody pic of myself with instagram… wait, do us Hipsters still wear thick rimmed glasses?
Don’t forget the (designer brand) skinny jeans!
Right! Hey so… if I can’t feel my toes when I wear them, have I gone too hipster?
