PersonalProjects helps you manage your personal projects from start to finish β€” whether you're renovating a room, planning a garage sale, building something in the workshop, or tackling any project that has multiple steps and costs. ORGANIZE YOUR PROJECTS Break any project into high-level steps, then break those steps into manageable details. See exactly where you stand with completion percentages at every level β€” detail, step, and project. TRACK EVERY COST Record costs at the project, step, or detail level. Attach photos of receipts so you always have proof of purchase. Track refunds with negative amounts. See cost totals roll up automatically from the bottom to the top. Categorize spending by Materials, Labor, Equipment, Permits, Rentals, Professional Services, and more. STAY ON TOP OF DEADLINES Set due dates on individual details and get a Dashboard view showing what's overdue and what's coming due in the next 14 days β€” across all your projects at once. CAPTURE NOTES AND IMAGES Add notes at the step and detail level to capture what’s been done, what’s needed, and what problems came up. Attach images to document purchases, materials, labor, or anything else that benefits from a visual record. GENERATE PDF REPORTS Print or share a professional PDF report for any project. Choose a Full Report showing everything, or a Remaining Work report showing only what's left to do. All steps, details, notes, costs, and images are included. ORGANIZE WITH TAGS Create color-coded tags to organize projects by category or person β€” Home, Vehicle, Yard, or anyone involved. Filter your project list by tag and status to find what you need instantly. BACKUP AND RESTORE Export all your data to a JSON file and save it to iCloud Drive, email it, or AirDrop it as a backup. Restore from any previous export at any time. Your data is always safe. PERSONAL AND PRIVATE PersonalProjects stores your data privately on your device and in your personal iCloud account. No accounts, no subscriptions, no ads.

About

CopyBox

Read full description

CopyBox is a clipboard library and keyboard paste tool for iPhone. Save copied text, reusable snippets, links, and replies, then paste them from the CopyBox keyboard without switching back and forth between apps. Input Templates turn a reusable message into a simple fill-in form. Define fields such as Customer Name, enter their values when you use the template, review the completed message, and prepare it for the CopyBox keyboard. Only the completed text is available to the keyboard, and it expires automatically after 30 minutes. Use CopyBox for common replies, support messages, links, hashtags, and any text you need to reuse. When several messages must be sent in a specific order, Queue mode lets you paste the next saved item one step at a time. Key features: - Create Input Templates with your own field names - Enter values, preview the completed message, and prepare it for the keyboard - Save current clipboard text from the main app - Save selected text and URLs from the Share Sheet - Keep recent clips and saved snippets ready - Keep multiple snippets in an ordered queue - Create, rename, and delete queues for different tasks - Insert recent clips, saved snippets, prepared templates, or the next queue item from the custom keyboard - Import multiple lines at once - Mark snippets as used and reset queue progress when needed - Use Shortcuts actions to save the clipboard, add text, copy the next clip, reset queue progress, and open the app CopyBox stores snippets, templates, and prepared text locally in its shared App Group container. Clipboard text, keyboard input, snippets, template fields and values, and completed messages are not sent to a developer server or included in data sent to advertising, Analytics, or Crashlytics services.
