ShellLog
Read full descriptionHide full description
ShellLog is a collection log built for people who already know what they found — on the beach, at a shell show, an estate sale, or a club swap. Track species, condition, storage location, and the story behind every shell you own. 【What You Can Do】 ▷ Shell Ledger Log species, family/genus, condition grade (Gem, Extra Fine, Fine, Good, Beach Worn, or Dead Collected), photos, and a short episode memo for each shell. Every entry gets an auto-numbered catalog number — SL-0001, SL-0002, and so on. Free up to 15 shells. ▷ Collected, Purchased, or Traded Record how you got each shell: the beach and date you collected it, the shop or show you bought it from (with price and currency), or a trade. ▷ Log a Whole Beach Haul After saving one shell, keep going. "Log Another" carries over the beach and date (or the shop and price), so you can log an entire haul in one sitting — then review a trip summary when you're done. ▷ Tide & Weather Notes Jot down the conditions when you found something — spring tide, after a storm, low tide, after rain — with one-tap presets or your own notes. ▷ GPS Location Record exactly where you found a shell using your device's location, and open it in Apple Maps or Google Maps anytime. Entirely optional. ▷ Storage Locations Organize shelves, display cases, drawers, and bins in a nested tree, then assign each shell a home. No more digging through boxes for one shell. ▷ Cleaning History Log how and when you cleaned each shell — method, date, and notes — so you're never guessing what you already tried. ▷ Tags Tag shells however you like — favorites, fragile, gift, rare — and filter your list by tag. ▷ Share Cards Generate a shareable card for a single shell, a beach trip haul, or a collection milestone. Free (with a small ShellLog badge) — Pro removes it. ▷ Full Backup Export your entire collection — records and photos — to a ZIP file, and restore it anytime. Included free, no Pro required. 【Who It's For】 · Beachcombers who bring home more shells than they can remember the story of · Buyers and traders at shell shows, festivals, and club swaps · Anyone whose shell box has outgrown "I'll remember where this came from" · Collectors who want a real catalog, not just a camera roll 【Your Data Stays on Your Device】 Everything is stored locally on your iPhone. Nothing is uploaded to external servers. No account required. 【Pricing】 · Free: up to 15 shells. Condition grading, cleaning history, tags, storage locations, GPS, ZIP backup/restore, and share cards (with a small badge) are all included. · ShellLog Pro (one-time purchase): unlimited shells and watermark-free share cards. Pay once, yours forever. ---------------------- Developer: Kore Apps Contact: support@kore-apps.com ----------------------

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Yoolax Home at none against ShellLog's 1. Yoolax Home also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). ShellLog's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 5 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
