## What is Video Game Tracker?

Cartridge is a catalog and AR experience for the games you own. It does not play games and is not an emulator.

Build a shelf that looks the way your collection feels in memory — scan retro cartridges, design their sleeves, walk through them in AR Museum, and put any cart on stage in Theater Mode.

Stays on your device. No account. No cloud. Your collection cannot be wiped by a server outage or a developer who walks away.

One-time purchase. Not a subscription. No per-console paywalls, ever.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Scan or search — IGDB-backed database with 200,000+ titles across decades of consoles
• Pick the right console — every cartridge gets a body shape, label proportions, and shaders that match the platform
• Design your sleeve — pick a pattern, cycle the accent color, watch the artwork form live
• Inspect in 3D — tilt your phone to see specular highlights move across plastic and foil
• AR Museum — place your shelf in the room, walk around it, scale and rearrange
• Theater Mode — single cartridge, dark stage, full attention
• Ask about any game — release year, region, why it mattered, what made it special
• Tilt-parallax shelf — gyro-driven depth that makes the shelf feel layered, not flat
• Lock Screen widget — a different cartridge from your collection every day

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Everything stays on your iPhone. No account, no sign-up, no cloud database storing your library. Game-context questions run through Apple's on-device Foundation Models — your collection never leaves your device.

PRO UNLOCK
The first ten cartridges are yours forever. Cartridge Pro is a one-time purchase that unlocks an unlimited shelf, holographic foil shaders, AR Museum, Theater Mode, and the full sleeve pattern library. No subscription. No recurring charges. All consoles included — no per-platform paywalls.

FOR COLLECTORS
Cartridge is an independent app for game collectors. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any platform holder. Sleeve and label artwork are original artistic interpretations created for your personal collection. Cartridge does not include, distribute, or enable playback of any games or ROMs.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1.0 — 2026-06-05

Disc-era arrives - PlayStation 2, GameCube, Wii, Dreamcast, Saturn, original Xbox and Xbox 360. Plus PSP, PS Vita, 3DS, WonderSwan, Neo Geo Pocket, and a couple of late-70s carts for the deep collectors. Thirty threeplatforms in total, each with its own sleeve silhouette. Cover art shows in full now. The shelf borrows a trick from album posters - corners blur into the cover colors,   so every card feels framed rather than cropped.

### 1.0 — 2026-06-01

No release notes.
