iDryer vs SpoolSense

Wet filament ruins prints. iDryer keeps it dry automatically while you focus on other things. The first app for controlling the iDryer filament dryer. Connect your device and get full control, monitoring, and process visualization. iDryer works with the whole ecosystem of the project: dryers, iHeater, Storage Link, other devices, and your own ones that you can come up with yourself. DEMO MODE No device yet? Get to know the app on demo units—they behave like the real thing: live telemetry, drying runs, heating, falling humidity, and weight loss. REAL-TIME TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY Track the drying process without having to stay nearby. All key readings are on the home screen. WEIGHT CONTROL See filament weight on the spool and how much moisture has been removed. No guesswork, just data. DRYING PROFILES Ready-made modes for drying most materials. Expand your library, share, browse community profiles, and get better results. Before a run you can see the profile stages—temperatures and durations. SPOOL STORAGE Racks, shelves, and slots: every spool has its own place. Move and swap spools, load them into the dryer, keep a usage history and storage conditions. RFID TAGS Read a tag with your phone in the OpenSpool, OpenPrintTag, and TigerTag formats, and bind it to a spool in one action. An RFID section has been added to Tools—read, erase, and write a test tag. RFID/NFC features are available on devices with NFC support. PUSH NOTIFICATIONS Devices report every change. EASY CONNECTION The app passes your Wi-Fi network details to the device and binds it to your account. LAN AND CLOUD Control your device on the local network or remotely through the cloud. FILAMENT CATALOG Brands, material types, and key properties are always within reach. FORUM Discussions, answers, and owner experience inside the app. Topics are translated into the app language automatically. SESSION HISTORY Analyze results, share, compare sessions, and improve print quality. Built for people who take 3D printing seriously.

SpoolSense turns your iPhone into an NFC reader and writer for 3D-printing filament spools. Tap a tagged spool and SpoolSense instantly shows you what it is: material, brand, color, nozzle and bed temperatures, filament diameter, density, and how much is left on the roll. No typing, no guessing which spool is which. READ AND WRITE FIVE TAG FORMATS - OpenPrintTag (ISO 15693, ICODE SLIX2) - OpenSpool (ISO 14443A, NTAG215/216) - TigerTag (ISO 14443A, NTAG213/215/216) - OpenTag3D (ISO 14443A, NTAG215/216) - NFC+ - register any blank tag's UID against your inventory Write a blank tag from scratch, or read an existing tag and edit it. SpoolSense verifies every write by reading the tag back. WORKS ON ITS OWN Reading and writing tags needs nothing but your iPhone and a tag. No account, no subscription, no server, no cloud. SpoolSense collects no data whatsoever. OPTIONAL: SPOOLMAN INVENTORY Point SpoolSense at a self-hosted Spoolman server and your whole filament inventory syncs to your phone. Browse every spool, search by material or vendor, see remaining weight at a glance, and get a low-spool warning at a threshold you choose. Scans update Spoolman automatically, and used filament is deducted for you. OPTIONAL: SEND TO YOUR PRINTER Scan a spool and push it straight to the printer you just loaded it into: - Snapmaker U1 - assign the spool to a channel over your local network - Klipper with AFC / Happy Hare / a toolchanger - route through SpoolSense middleware for tool assignment and automatic deductions - Plain Klipper - scans keep Spoolman up to date Pick any combination, or none. A phone can roam between printers. PRIVACY Everything lives on your own devices and your own servers. SpoolSense has no analytics, no tracking, no accounts, and no ads, and it never sends your data anywhere. REQUIREMENTS NFC scanning and writing require a physical iPhone (iPhone 7 or later). Spoolman and printer integration are optional and require software you run yourself on your own network.
