About

HibiSado

Features
Read full description

HibiSado is a quiet notebook app for tea practice and chanoyu records. You can save keiko, chakai, and other tea-related activities with dates, activity types, seasons, photos, tea, scrolls, utensils, wagashi, and chabana. Utensils, wagashi, chabana, and tea can be added little by little from their own tabs, then selected when writing a record. As your notes grow, you can look back on practice counts, seasonal and monthly tags, and your personal tea journey. You can also create a shareable record image to save or post. Data is stored on your device, and backups can be exported and imported. HibiSado is made for people who want to quietly keep track of their tea practice, tea gatherings, and utensils over time.
