Read full descriptionHide full description
VanityTrack is a local-first cosmetics inventory for the makeup and skincare on your counter. Log a product, mark when you opened it, and the app computes a toss-by date from the industry-standard period-after-opening window for that category. Key features - PAO toss-by dates for 27 product categories, with aging and expired reminders - Named AM and PM routines with product sequencing - Routine Clash: scan each saved routine for actives that should not share a sitting - Conflict Checker for a manual actives picker, plus on-device batch-code decoding - Stash counts, restock lead times, cost-per-use, and a shopping list for backups - Camera and photo library for packaging photos; export reports from your device VanityTrack is not a medical device. Clash and Conflict Checker encode published layering guidance for education only. The app is local-first. It does not require an account, does not include third-party analytics SDKs, and does not send your records to a developer server.

Patterns turns your screen into something you made. CREATE YOUR STYLE Every wallpaper here starts as a recipe, not a download. Pick a generative style, tune it until it feels right, and the app renders the result on your device at full resolution. Change one value and you get something new. Nothing is fetched from a server, and no two people end up with quite the same screen. BEAUTIFUL PATTERNS Forty generative styles, organized into four families: Gradients - mesh gradients, aurora, nebula, sunset, neon and deep AMOLED black Textures - marble, watercolor, ink, smoke, clouds, fabric, carbon fiber, glass and ice Geometric - low poly, polygon, wireframe, circuit board, minimal forms and clean shapes Particles - starfields, rain, bubbles, drifting light and flowing liquid Search the catalog by name or filter by family to find a direction fast. MAKE IT YOURS Open any style in the editor and it becomes adjustable. Sliders for scale, density, complexity, symmetry, rotation, depth, glow, blur, contrast and more update the preview as you move them. Replace the palette with your own colors using the system color picker, or reset to the original in a tap. Feeling exploratory? Randomize the seed and let the engine surprise you, then keep the version you like. DESIGNED FOR WALLPAPERS Render in HD, QHD or 4K, in portrait for iPhone and iPad or landscape for Mac.
