## What is Perch Pot?

Organize your pottery work with an app that's always in your pocket. Track glazes with a tap, document what works (or doesn't) with a photo, and have it all searchable. 

Perch Pot helps you track everything about your pottery projects: 

• Search, sort, filter — Full text search for your notes, sort by what stage your project is at, or filter to a particular clay or custom tag
• Photos — Pictures help you remember your work like nothing else, so they're front and center right alongside your notes
• Automatic sync — Out of the box backup and syncing for all your projects privately on your iCloud account
• Optimized workflows — Everything you track should be quick and painless so you can get back to making
• Customize everything — What stages do you want to track your projects through? What glazes does your studio have? Customize stages, forms, clays, decorative techniques, glazes, and custom tags
• Ideas — Capture project ideas like a neat decorative technique or a good glaze combo in a separate section
• Undo delete — Anything you delete can be found and recovered from the recently deleted section of settings
• Export your data — You shouldn't be locked into an app, so you can always export all your photos and data (and import data from elsewhere)

I built the app I wanted to use for my pottery, and it's really improved how I work. Perch Pot will always be free so anyone can bring a bit more beauty into this world. Happy potting!

### 5/5 — So handy

*2026-05-07, version 1.0.4*

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.

### 1/5 — Hard to use for me

*2026-04-09, version 1.0.4*

Not sure why but it’s difficult to use.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing and not responsive

*2026-04-08, version 1.0.4*

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.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-02-27, version 1.0.4*

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

### 4/5 — Generally Ok

*2026-02-11, version 1.0.4*

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.

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2026-01-26, version 1.0.4*

Easy to use, free, thank you!

### 5/5 — Perfect!!

*2026-01-15, version 1.0.4*

Exactly what I’ve been looking for and without massive cost. Easy to use, customize with your own specs and information, and easy to navigate. I love how the list of projects sorts itself by production stage, it helped me organize my studio better to keep clearer track of the process. Thank you for this fantastic tracker!!

### 5/5 — Does everything I need

*2025-12-04, version 1.0.4*

Love this app, easy to use and keeps all my data from free ware to glazed. Lists for clays, glazes etc. Best of all I can export my data to my files instead of loosing it!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-11-26, version 1.0.4*

This is a very handy app. I’ve recommended it to many users of my community studio.

### 5/5 — Straight Forward

*2025-11-02, version 1.0.4*

Excellent simple app  not over complicated to use but with enough space for the information you need to keep thanks
