What's New in Perch Pot

1.0.4

January 21, 2025

- Fix app crash — removes a buggy feature (swipe to advance stage) that seems to have been causing app crashes for a number of users. (Once I can fully debug the issue, I'll try to get the feature back out, but I wanted to fix the app crashes for users ASAP.) - Improved crash logs to help with debugging future issues - Swipe left/right on the "In Progress" picker to more quickly switch between "Ideas", "In Progress", and "Completed" sections

So handy

I’m really enjoying using this app to track my pottery projects. I needed something to help me keep track of all the different stages my projects were in so that I wouldn’t forget them - and this does that easily, simply, clearly, and effectively. I like being able to had photos and to have my catalog of glazes, clays and techniques saved and easily added to each project. Thank you for providing this useful app, I really appreciate it.

Hard to use for me

Not sure why but it’s difficult to use.

Keeps crashing and not responsive

The app has been crashing for no apparent reason. I don’t even have many photos but it crashes or becomes unresponsive after i have it open for more than a minute or so. I’m sorry but I cannot use it the way it is now, it’s buggy.

Bad

Can not find a way to add pictures and status permanently. Ridiculously bad

Generally Ok

It’s generally ok but needs to allow edits to entries. For example if I move something from one stage to another (bisque to glaze) but don’t update the app on the same day I actually do the activity, I can’t change the date. Nor can I delete or change photos. It’s just not flexible enough.
