## What is Biltong Buddy?

Biltong takes time. Forgetting which piece you started six days ago doesn't have to.

Biltong Buddy is your personal drying assistant — log a piece, weigh it as it dries, and watch the moisture loss trend toward your target. No more "I think it's ready". The system tell you.

WHAT'S INSIDE
• Quick Log — see every piece due for a weigh-in today, from every batch, in one tap
• Set how ofter you want to log them
• Batch tracking — group your pieces by recipe, season, or whatever makes sense in your head
• Weight history — every piece's drying curve and finish-date prediction
• Recipe library — save your cure mixes once, reuse them forever
• Stats — see how your batches actually perform across cuts, recipes, and seasons
• Smart reminders — gentle push when something's nearly ready
• Sign in with Apple or Google — quick start, no password to remember

DESIGNED FOR HOW BILTONG ACTUALLY WORKS
This isn't a generic kitchen tracker. It's built for the way real biltong-making happens — slow, parallel, sometimes interrupted, often shared with mates over WhatsApp asking "is it done yet?".

The metrics that matter — moisture loss percent, days drying, target weight — not vanity charts. Your data lives on your device with cloud sync, so it's there even when the WiFi at the braai isn't.

WHO IT'S FOR
First-timers who want a system. Veterans who want their cure recipes saved. Anyone who's ever lost track of which piece in the rack started when.

Made by a South African. Tested on real meat. No drying experience required.
