Everything in log lost

So devastated - everything in the log is gone when I updated phones - it didn’t back up to the iCloud - just disappeared - five years of work gone

Helps me remember all my pieces in progress

I love that this app helps me keep track of all my pieces and what stage of the process they are at. I have one suggestion though. I would love to be able to organize my finished pieces so I can easily find what I want, or have the ability to ‘favorite’ my pieces so I can quickly access them without scrolling through all my finished pieces.

Searching feature issues, but overall a great app so far

So far I’m enjoying most features of the app and the ability to keep notes and photos of each piece together. It is so much simpler to be able to take photos with my phone and immediately organize, as well as easily compare glaze uses and combinations.

A few issues I have run into:

The thumbnail for each piece is automatically the last photo added.

The search feature is dependent on capitalization. You will get different results if you search a word in lowercase vs uppercase.

Love this app!

So helpful and well-organized. Really love not having a million photos on my camera that I have to scroll through to find what I need! A few requests:
—When you take a photo in the app, you can’t choose which portion of it to display. You can zoom but not choose what area gets zoomed in on.
—When you search for something (eg “mug”) and then click on one of the results to look at the details and then click the back button, it clears your search. Please keep the search filter on!
—Would love to see a stage added between bisqued and glazed. Right now I get my bisqued items and sometimes wait to glaze them which means there’s no differentiation between things that are actively bisquing and things that are finished bisquing but not yet glazed.

Wonderful app, with one fix!

This app is so great and simple for tracking my pots at my community studio- I now know when I put something on the glaze shelf and thus which pots to look for when the kiln gets unloaded, and how long it’s been since I’ve thrown a piece /how long I have before it needs to be trimmed! My favorite feature is the search, so I can search a glaze and see all the pots I’ve used that glaze on. This feature does need one small fix, though! It is case sensitive, so if I sometimes capitalize the name of a glaze and sometimes don’t, I have to search both capitalized and not to see all the pots. This is especially frustrating with glazes with two word names. It would be great if that change could be made!

In a dream world, it would be so cool if there was a way to add friends on the app, so that friends at my studio and I could easily share glaze combination learnings!
