Digital Armory is a private inventory, range log and maintenance record for your firearms, built for owners who want accurate records for insurance, upkeep and the range without a spreadsheet. No account, no ads, no tracking. Your data stays on your iPhone and in your own iCloud. YOUR ARMORY • Make, model, caliber, serial number, action, barrel, finish, price paid, value and purchase details for every firearm. • Serial numbers stay masked until you tap to reveal, and you can scan them with the camera. • Photos of each firearm, its serial and the box. Compressed to HEIC with location data removed. • Identical models stack into one card with totals. Add another of the same model in a tap. OPTICS (NEW) • Scopes and red dots are their own items with a serial number, photos, receipts, value and warranty documents. • Mount an optic on a firearm and it appears on that firearm's page. Move it to another rifle with one edit. • Typed your optics into a firearm's details already? Convert them to Optic items in one tap. Nothing changes until you confirm. RANGE LOG • Log rounds, ammunition, distance, group size and malfunctions with target and ammo photos. • Find nearby ranges with Apple Maps, or pick from the ones you've used. • Measure groups by tapping bullet holes on a target photo. iPhones with LiDAR set the scale for you. • Charts of rounds per month, group size over time and malfunctions per 1,000 rounds. MAINTENANCE • Clean by round count, by days, or whichever comes first, with a full service history and costs. • Optional reminders when a firearm comes due, scheduled on your device. SIGHT-IN ASSISTANT • Zeroed at 50 and shooting at 100? See where to aim, how much to hold and how many clicks to dial, in MOA or MIL. • Pro adds wind and weather corrections and a printable dope card. DOCUMENTS AND RECORDS • Carry permits, NFA tax stamps, hunting licenses, warranties, bills of sale, appraisals and insurance policies, with photos of each page and reminders before they expire. • Mark a firearm as sold, transferred, gifted, or lost or stolen. It moves to an archive with its full history. • Import your existing list from Excel, Numbers or Google Sheets as a CSV. • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets with collection value, rounds fired and what's due for cleaning. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account to create. Nothing is sent to us. • Backed up and synced through your private iCloud database, which only you can read. • Optional Face ID or Touch ID lock. FREE AND PRO The free version holds up to 2 firearms and includes photos, the range log, maintenance, the sight-in calculator, documents, optics, the archive, spreadsheet import, widgets and iCloud backup. Digital Armory Pro is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. It removes the firearm limit and adds ammo inventory with low-stock warnings, the insurance PDF report and CSV export, receipt photos, Face ID lock, wind and weather corrections with a dope card, saved sight-in profiles, and alternate app icons and themes. Digital Armory is a record-keeping tool. It does not sell, buy, transfer or advertise firearms, ammunition or accessories. Ballistic estimates are a starting point; always confirm on paper at a safe, approved range and follow your local laws. Questions? digitalarmory.app/support
