Let’s be honest: your nail polish collection stopped fitting in a single shoebox years ago. Polished! is a no-nonsense inventory and tracking utility built specifically for serious collectors. Whether you need to remember which Helmer drawer holds your holographic top coats or you want to track exactly how many manicures you can get out of a single bottle, this app replaces your (importable!) spreadsheets with a native, highly organized vault. FEATURES: The Ultimate Vault: Log the brand, name, collection, finish, purchase date and specific storage location for every polish you own. Use your camera to scan text directly off the bottle to skip the typing. Smart Color Scanning: Snap a photo of a bottle or swatch. The app will extract the exact Hex code and use color-matching algorithms to automatically categorize it into the correct color family. Usage Analytics: Log your manicures to track the lifetime uses of a bottle. The app auto-calibrates your usage rate to estimate exactly how much polish is left, so you know when to repurchase a holy grail shade. Nail Art Gallery: Build a portfolio of your manicures. Snap a quick photo, link the specific polishes you used from your vault, and export the high-res image directly to Instagram. Mass Management: Reorganizing your physical collection? Use the multi-select tool to instantly update the storage location for dozens of polishes at once. Share Your Swatches: Generate custom QR codes for any polish in your vault so friends can instantly see the brand, name, and color specs. Your Data is Yours: No locked ecosystems. Export your entire vault to a clean CSV spreadsheet, or generate a full offline backup (including all your high-res photos) to save locally or on iCloud. Take control of your collection. Know what you own, know where it is, and finally start wearing those untouched shades sitting in the back of Drawer 4.
