## What is FormFerry?

FormFerry is a local-first operations tracker for paperwork that is already in motion.

Build a clear case record for applications, requests, claims, permits, renewals, and other submissions. Record exactly what happened, who owns the next move, and when you want to check in again.

CASE CONTROL
- Track draft, submitted, receipt-confirmed, waiting, action-required, resolved, and archived cases.
- Assign the next action and identify whether you, the recipient, or a third party is responsible.
- Save submission method, confirmation number, contact details, and status link.
- Enter your own expected-response and check-in dates. FormFerry does not calculate official deadlines.

EVIDENCE AND HISTORY
- Build a task checklist for missing evidence or follow-up work.
- Add timestamped submission, receipt, contact, document, status, decision, and note events.
- Attach receipt, confirmation, or status photos to the case.
- Search across cases, tasks, references, notes, and timeline activity.

REPORTS AND BACKUP
- Export a readable case report, CSV register, or PDF evidence packet.
- Back up and restore the complete local case register with a FormFerry file.
- Use optional local notifications for check-in dates you choose.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, ads, third-party analytics, or backend service. Case data stays on your device unless you choose to export it.

FormFerry records information and dates that you enter. It does not submit paperwork, determine official deadlines, predict outcomes, or provide legal, medical, insurance, tax, or financial advice. Confirm requirements and dates with the responsible organization.

### 1.3 — 2026-07-01

Waiting on paperwork means remembering to check back at the right time — and keeping proof of everything you did. This update takes both off your plate.

**Follow-up reminders.** Turn on reminders and FormFerry schedules a local notification for the day each form reaches its typical follow-up window, so you do not have to keep checking the app. You can switch reminders off for any single record, and the whole feature can be toggled from the Info tab. Reminders are scheduled entirely on your device — no account and no network.

**Photo attachments.** Attach a receipt, a stamped copy, or a screenshot of a portal status to any record. Attached photos show up on the record and are included in the PDF paper trail you can hand to a caseworker.

**Backup & restore.** Export a single .formferry file containing every record, contact, follow-up log, and attached photo, then restore it on this or another device. Restoring merges by record, so re-importing the same file never creates duplicates.

Still completely private: no account, no ads, no analytics, and no backend service. Every record stays on your device. FormFerry is a status tracker and does not submit forms or provide legal, medical, insurance, or financial advice; suggested follow-up windows are typical estimates, not guarantees.

### 1.2 — 2026-06-19

What's New - FormFerry 1.2 (build 5)

Knowing *when* to follow up is the hardest part of waiting on paperwork. FormFerry 1.2 closes that gap.

New in this version

Follow-up windows. Add a submitted date and choose a paperwork type - school form, health insurance, prior authorization, insurance claim, government license, permit, U.S. passport, medical records, FOIA, tax filing, or rebate - and FormFerry suggests a reasonable time to check in. Each record shows whether it is too early, ready to follow up, or past its typical window.

Follow-up log. Record every time you call, email, or check a portal, with the date, channel, and outcome. It is your own timestamped paper trail of exactly what you did and when.

Tap-to-call contacts. Save the office phone and status portal for each form, then tap to call or open them right when it is time to follow up.

Offline reference. A new Toolkit guide lists typical processing windows for common paperwork, each with its source, so you can judge when checking in is fair.

PDF paper trail. Export a printable document with every form, its follow-up window, its contacts, and its full follow-up log - ready to hand to a caseworker or keep for your records. The CSV and text exports now include the new fields too.

Still completely private: no account, no ads, no analytics, no network service. Every record stays on your device. FormFerry is a status tracker and does not submit forms or provide legal, medical, insurance, or financial advice; suggested follow-up windows are typical estimates, not guarantees.

### 1.1 — 2026-06-01
