Keep proof of the work. Project Logger helps you turn project photos, invoices, receipts, warranties, parts, materials and completion notes into a clear record of what was done. Use it for restorations, repairs, builds, services and project handovers - from cars, bikes and camper vans to home projects, garden work, boats, tools, electronics and workshop jobs. WHY USE PROJECT LOGGER? Project work is easy to forget once it is finished. Photos get buried in your camera roll. Receipts live in emails. Warranties go missing. Hidden details are covered, painted, buried or closed up. Project Logger gives you one structured place to keep the record. WHAT YOU CAN RECORD - Before, during and after photos - Hidden details before they disappear - Parts, materials, model numbers and serial numbers - Invoices, receipts and quotes - Payment records and completion notes - Warranties, manuals and certificates - Maintenance notes for the next person - Project timelines and evidence records BUILT FOR REAL PROJECTS Create an Item, add a Project, then start capturing evidence. Record what was done, what was used, what was paid for and what matters later. Useful for: - Car and bike restorations - Van and camper conversions - Home and garden projects - Workshop repairs - Boat refits - Machinery and tool servicing - Electronics and maker projects - Client handovers and resale records HIDDEN DETAILS Some work becomes impossible to inspect later. Project Logger helps you capture wiring, pipe routes, repairs, fittings, fixings, parts, materials and other important details before they are covered or forgotten. PROJECT RECORD PACKS Create a clear record for future maintenance, resale, insurance, client handover or your future self. Project Logger helps you answer: - What was done? - When was it done? - Who did it? - What parts or materials were used? - What invoices, receipts or warranties apply? - What evidence proves completion? - What should the next person know? IMPORTANT Project Logger organises user-provided records. It does not certify safety, quality, legality, compliance or workmanship unless a separate authorised certificate or professional sign-off is included.

SmartLess turns your phone into a calm, deliberate tool instead of a slot machine. Open it and you see a still, black screen โ€” a quiet clock and only the handful of apps you actually need. No colour. No badges. No endless grid pulling at your attention. Tap an app and the real thing opens; everything else stays out of sight. โ€” MAKE IT YOURS โ€” โ€ข Add any app to your home screen โ€” Messages, Maps, Music, Calendar and dozens more, or anything custom via its link. โ€ข Choose a clean list or a calm grid, set the number of columns, and pick your text size and typeface. โ€ข Black, charcoal, or paper themes โ€” always pure monochrome, never a single distracting hue. โ€ข Toggle the clock, 24-hour time, the date, and a personal greeting. โ€ข Add a quiet personal note, or let a fresh motivational quote greet you each day. โ€” BLOCK THE DISTRACTIONS โ€” โ€ข Turn on Focus to hide the apps that pull you in, powered by Apple Screen Time. โ€ข You choose exactly which apps and categories to shield. โ€ข Your choices stay private and never leave your device. โ€” PRIVATE BY DESIGN โ€” SmartLess has no server and no account. Everything lives on your device. No tracking, no analytics, no ads, no data collected โ€” ever. The developer cannot see anything you do. SmartLess is for anyone who wants the usefulness of a smartphone with the calm of a dumb phone. Put it front and centre, tuck the noisy apps away, and get your attention back. Made by one developer who believes your phone should work for you, not the other way around.
