It Just Works 

"It Just Works" is a phrase used to describe something that's inner workings don't make sense.

For example, the antagonist's stand of JoJo's Bizzare Adventure: Golden Wind, King Crimson has the ability to erase time. What does that mean? No clue, cause it just works.
King Crimson: I erased time, and leapt past it!
You: Wait, how does that work? What?
King Crimson: It just works.

IT JUST WORKS 

Like DaVinci's "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication", when software does very complex things with very simple and intuitive human interaction in a reliable way. I first heard "It Just Works" used regularly within Apple by Peter Hoddie and Ian Ritchie of the QuickTime team in January 1993. Later, Steve Jobs and others started using it, probably because Peter and his team had presented QuickTime and used that phrase.
