Keep your sourdough feeding routine simple. StarterTap records a feeding in one tap, remembers the ratio you used, and calculates when each culture is due next. Use the app, an interactive widget, or a notification action—even when your hands are covered in flour. BUILT FOR THE ROUTINE • See every starter and its next feeding at a glance • Log a feeding in one tap • Reuse each starter’s flour type and feeding ratio • Choose room-temperature or refrigerated schedules • Receive local reminders at the right time • Review a clear, searchable feeding history STARTERTAP PRO Pro adds unlimited starters, complete feeding history, custom schedules and ratios, iCloud sync, CSV export, and Family Sharing. PRIVATE BY DESIGN StarterTap has no account, ads, analytics SDK, or third-party tracking. Your log stays on your devices and in your private iCloud key-value store when you choose to use Pro sync. CSV files leave the app only when you select a destination. StarterTap is a personal log and reminder tool. It does not diagnose mold, fermentation problems, or food safety conditions. When in doubt about whether a culture is safe to use, follow trusted food-safety guidance.
