SlowTable helps you slow down, eat with intention, and turn everyday meals into meaningful moments. We rush through food while scrolling, working, or thinking about what’s next. SlowTable creates a quiet pause at the table — helping you reconnect with your meal, your pace, and the present moment. SLOW DOWN WITH SOUND Gentle music guides your rhythm so you can eat calmly and stay present. No timers to race — just a softer pace to follow. BE FULLY PRESENT A simple, mindful structure encourages you to notice each bite instead of rushing through your plate. Eating becomes a moment, not a task. NOTICE HOW IT FELT Capture the feeling in your journal. Focus on the experience — not calories, not perfection. SHARE MEANINGFUL MOMENTS Share your meals with others, centered on presence rather than presentation. Because what matters isn’t what you ate — it’s how you experienced it. NOT A DIET APP. NOT A TRACKER. SlowTable doesn’t measure your meals. It helps you experience them. No calorie counting. No pressure. No performance. Just a quieter way to eat. MADE FOR EVERYDAY LIFE Use SlowTable wherever you are: • morning coffee in quiet light • a quick lunch between meetings • a slow dinner at home • late-night tea or a glass of wine Wherever there is a table, there is a moment.

The world's first iOS app built for carnivorous plant collectors. Track your Nepenthes, Venus flytraps, Sarracenia, Drosera, Heliamphora, Cephalotus and more — with fields designed specifically for carnivores: pitcher size, feeding response, water type, and humidity. Replace your spreadsheet grow list with something that fits in your pocket. 【What You Can Do】 ▷ Plant Collection Register each plant with genus, species, clone name, source, acquisition date, price, and cover photo. Every entry in your grow list, organized as a proper ledger. ▷ Photo Timeline Add unlimited photos per plant from camera or library. Watch the growth of each pitcher, leaf, or trap unfold over time. ▷ Feeding Log Record prey type (fruit fly, mealworm, cricket, bloodworm, liquid fertilizer, other), size, trap used, whether it responded, and response time. Know which plants are catching well — and which need attention. ▷ Care Environment (per plant) Log setup type (terrarium, greenhouse, windowsill, outdoor), light source (LED, fluorescent, sunlight), and water type (distilled, rainwater, RO). Designed for carnivores — fertilizer is not on the list. ▷ Environment Log (Pro) Daily records of temperature high/low, humidity percentage, and light hours. Track the seasonal conditions that matter for highland Nepenthes and Heliamphora. ▷ Growth Chart (Pro) Pitcher size over time, plotted as a line chart per plant. See the trend from the day you acquired it. ▷ Share Card Generate a card with your plant's photo, species, clone name, pitcher size, growing status, and days tracked — and share it directly to Reddit, Instagram, or X. Free users get a "Tracked with TrapNote" watermark; Pro removes it. ▷ Wishlist Keep your must-have species list. Add source, target price, and notes. Never lose track of a species you're hunting. ▷ Trade Flags (Pro) Mark plants as available for trade and add a note on what you're looking for in exchange. Useful when posting to r/SavageGarden or TerraForums trade threads. ▷ CSV / ZIP Export & Import Export your full collection as CSV, or as a ZIP with photos. Import CSV or ZIP to restore data. Available on the free plan. 【Who It's For】 · Nepenthes collectors with highland setups or terrariums · Venus flytrap and Sarracenia growers tracking pitcher size season by season · Anyone maintaining a grow list in a spreadsheet or Notion · Community members who post their collection to r/carnivorousplants, Instagram, or X 【Your Data Stays on Your Device】 All data is saved locally on your iPhone. Nothing is sent to external servers. No account required. No subscription. No risk if a service shuts down. 【Pricing】 · Free: Up to 10 plants. Photo timeline, feeding logs, wishlist, share cards (with watermark), and CSV/ZIP export & import are all free. · TrapNote Pro (one-time purchase): $6.99. Unlimited plants + environment logs + growth charts + trade flags + watermark-free share cards. Pay once, yours forever. ---------------------- Developer: Kore Apps Contact: support@kore-apps.com ----------------------
