MyArtDatabase is a calm, private app to catalogue your art collection โ€” from paintings and sculptures to prints, antiques, photographs, books and jewellery. Record what matters for each piece: artist, title, year, location in your home, dimensions, material, purchase details and notes. Add a photo, plus as many extra photos as you like (back, signature, detail). FOR INSURANCE Keep an appraisal history per work with date, value and source. Store certificates and invoices as documents alongside the piece. Export a clean insurance PDF in one tap, with purchase details, dimensions, appraisals and the total appraised value on the cover. OVERVIEW AND INSIGHT - Search by artist, title, location, dimensions or provenance - Sort by recent, artist, title, year or value - Filter by category - A statistics page with number of works, appraised value, value change and a breakdown by category PROVENANCE AND DOCUMENTS Record a work's provenance in free text, with a source reference. Add documents as PDF or photo. BACKUP Export your entire collection as a file โ€” including photos and documents โ€” and restore it whenever you want, even on another device. PRIVACY FIRST Your data stays yours. No account, no tracking, no ads, no external servers. Everything lives on your own device and syncs through your personal iCloud to your other Apple devices. The camera and your photos are only used for images you add yourself. Available in Dutch and English. Works on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
