String Art Generator vs Hearth

Create string art with a continuous string for each color.  Penelope makes it easy to create string art: just select an image, thread colors and how many nails you want. The app will create a step-by-step guide for you. For better string art, use high-contrast, simple images. Nail #1 is at the top of the circle, and numbers increase clockwise. Features: • String art generator with customizable canvas color and up to 10 different thread colors. • Adjust circle diameter and thread width for a realistic preview of the final art piece. • Voice announcement of the next nail during assembly. You will also be alerted when the color changes. • Choose the number of nails and maximum number of connections. • Export your project as a step-by-step guide. • No sign-in is required: Your projects are backed up securely in your iCloud and synchronized across your devices. If you have any suggestions on how to improve Penelope, feel free to contact the App Support email. Terms of use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Pay once. Host everything. Hearth is a party and event planner built around one shared guest list — no subscription, ever. Buy it a single time and the guest list, RSVPs, bring-list, seating chart, budget, and checklist are yours to keep. Your guest data stays on your phone, and your guests never install a thing. Most hosting apps rent you your own party with a monthly subscription, or bury it in ads. Hearth doesn't. One unlock, offline, ad-free. ONE GUEST LIST, EVERYTHING IN SYNC Add guests by hand or from Contacts, track invited / yes / no / maybe, count +1s, and flag dietary needs and allergies. A live headcount updates the moment anyone replies. This is the part other apps get wrong: when a guest drops out, Hearth updates everything at once — the headcount falls, their seat is flagged to re-seat, and the dish they were bringing reopens for someone else. No spreadsheet, no group-chat archaeology. A BRING-LIST WITH NO DUPLICATES Set up slots — "2 mains, 3 sides, 2 desserts" — and let dishes get claimed until each slot is full. Hearth warns you before you end up with five salads, and keeps every open slot at the top so nothing is forgotten. A SEATING CHART WITH AUTO-SEAT Drag guests to round, square, or long tables, or tap to seat without the gesture. Set keep-together and keep-apart rules and a kids' table, then let the on-device auto-seat build an arrangement that honors them — offline, no server. Print a clean seating chart and place cards as a PDF. BUDGET, CHECKLIST, AND THE DAY-OF PLAN Track estimated vs actual costs to the cent, split them evenly or by party size to see who owes what — tracking only, Hearth never moves money. Work an occasion checklist, and lay out a run-of-show for the day. Local reminders nudge non-responders and unfilled slots before it's too late. SHARE WITHOUT MAKING ANYONE SIGN UP Send a read-only summary as text or an image, export the guest list to CSV, or publish a view-only event page at a link anyone can open in a browser — no app, no account. The page shows counts and the plan only; guest names never leave your phone, and it expires on its own after 90 days. MADE FOR THE WAY YOU HOST A birthday party, a Thanksgiving or Friendsgiving dinner, a potluck with friends, a baby or bridal shower, a family reunion — Hearth scales from a small get-together to a full guest list without ever asking you to subscribe. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No sign-up. No ads. No trackers, no analytics. Everything lives on your device. Delete the app and the data is gone with it. FREE VS PRO • Free: one event, up to 15 guests, a 5-slot bring-list, the guest list, RSVPs, live headcount, seating you can build, and checklist templates. • Pro, one time: unlimited events and guests, unlimited bring-list slots, seating constraints and auto-seat, PDF and place-card export, the budget tracker and cost-split, custom checklist tasks, run-of-show, reminders, and watermark-free sharing. There is no subscription anywhere in Hearth. Buy it once, and it's the only hosting app you open.
