Whilst vs Rowloom

Whilst is a personal archive for the drawings your children make whilst they are little. * Take a picture of the artwork. It's cropped to the exact boundaries. * Each drawing is filed against the child who made it, on the day it was made. * Save any piece back to your camera roll when you want to share it. Send it to a grandparent, print it, frame it. * Easily compare drawings of the same subject over time to be in awe of the progress your kids are making * Synced to iCloud so you can always take it with you. Simple. Minimalist. Designed to get out of your way. Built by a dad with too many drawings to keep, but not the heart to throw any away. Each drawing of the family, of Elsa and Anna, of rainbows and unicorns, of houses, ... is a memory that should be preserved. The data is yours. We don't see it. We don't sell it. We don't have analytics. There is no server. No account required. No ads. No in-app purchases. No subscriptions. Pay once, keep forever. Think of it like a lifetime ticket to your child's artwork. The art, whilst they were little. Kept. — A dad who didn't want to lose precious memories.

Rowloom is a row and stitch counter for knitting and crochet, built for hands that are busy holding yarn. Big buttons, crisp haptics, and everything stays on your device. One purchase, no subscription: every feature is included. NEW IN 4.0 • Count from the Lock Screen: put any project's counter on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, with + Row and Undo buttons that work without opening the app. • Siri and Shortcuts: say "Add a row in Rowloom", "Undo a row in Rowloom" or "What row am I on in Rowloom". In Shortcuts you can pick the project and add several rows at once. • Gauge & sizing per project: save the pattern gauge and your swatch (per 10 cm or 4 in) to see how long your piece is at the current row, how many rows are left to a target length, whether to change needle size, and pattern stitch and row counts converted to your gauge. One tap sets the counter's target to match. • Safety copies: Rowloom saves a copy before deleting a project, deleting everything or importing a backup, and you can restore it from Settings. • My Counter widget for the Home and Lock Screen, and a Control Center control that opens your latest counter. • Larger Text support throughout, higher-contrast text and the new system tab bar. COUNTING • Tap the big button to count a stitch; the row advances automatically at your stitches-per-row, or count rows only. • Multiple named counters per project for body, sleeves, repeats and increases. • Linked counters that move with the main counter, and repeat-reset counters that cycle and count completed repeats. • Pattern-repeat notes per row, row reminders, milestone haptics and optional hands-free counting with the volume buttons. • Focus timers, project stats, a materials list and a finished-objects log. PATTERN READER Import an unencrypted PDF pattern, move a highlighted row guide, keep an independent reader row and save named checkpoints so you can pick up where you left off. A manual reading aid: no chart recognition and no automatic counter changes. OFFLINE REFERENCE Needle and hook sizes, yarn weights, abbreviations, cast-on, shaping and gauge calculators, and technique notes. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no ads, no tracking. Projects stay on your device; export a JSON backup whenever you like. The Home Screen widget and control never show your project data; the Lock Screen counter shows only the project you choose to put there. iPhone and iPad.
