Biltong takes time. Forgetting which piece you started six days ago doesn't have to. Biltong Buddy is your personal drying assistant — log a piece, weigh it as it dries, and watch the moisture loss trend toward your target. No more "I think it's ready". The system tell you. WHAT'S INSIDE • Quick Log — see every piece due for a weigh-in today, from every batch, in one tap • Set how ofter you want to log them • Batch tracking — group your pieces by recipe, season, or whatever makes sense in your head • Weight history — every piece's drying curve and finish-date prediction • Recipe library — save your cure mixes once, reuse them forever • Stats — see how your batches actually perform across cuts, recipes, and seasons • Smart reminders — gentle push when something's nearly ready • Sign in with Apple or Google — quick start, no password to remember DESIGNED FOR HOW BILTONG ACTUALLY WORKS This isn't a generic kitchen tracker. It's built for the way real biltong-making happens — slow, parallel, sometimes interrupted, often shared with mates over WhatsApp asking "is it done yet?". The metrics that matter — moisture loss percent, days drying, target weight — not vanity charts. Your data lives on your device with cloud sync, so it's there even when the WiFi at the braai isn't. WHO IT'S FOR First-timers who want a system. Veterans who want their cure recipes saved. Anyone who's ever lost track of which piece in the rack started when. Made by a South African. Tested on real meat. No drying experience required. Got feedback? Tap the feedback button in the app — it lands straight in my inbox.
