Bean Pounder vs PocketSpec

Bean Pounder is the companion app for the Bean Pounder espresso machine controller. Connect directly to your Bean Pounder MCU over Bluetooth to create advanced pressure and flow profiles, control extractions, and monitor live brewing data. DESIGN PROFILES Build multi-step profiles with pressure or flow control, transition curves, restrictions, step-specific stop conditions, and profile-wide limits. Preview the complete profile before brewing and store profiles directly on your controller. BREW WITH LIVE FEEDBACK Start and stop shots while following pressure, pump flow, scale flow, weight, and phase progress in real time. ORGANIZE YOUR COFFEE Keep a local catalog of beans and recipes so every shot stays connected to the coffee and profile you used. REVIEW EVERY SHOT Use the brew ledger to review shot history and detailed telemetry traces. Compare target and actual values to understand each extraction and refine future profiles. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account is required. Bean Pounder contains no advertising or third-party analytics tracking. Your profiles, beans, recipes, brew history, and photos are stored locally and are not uploaded to a Bean Pounder server. A compatible Bean Pounder MCU and supported espresso-machine installation are required for Bluetooth controller access and live brewing.

PocketSpec is a read-only viewer for comfortably reading the Markdown specifications inside your GitHub repositories, right on your iPhone and iPad. Check the design docs and specs stored in your project's docs/ folder anytime, anywhere. It isn't tied to a single repository — register multiple projects as a "spec bookshelf" and switch between them to read. ■ Key features • GitHub integration (read-only) Sign in with GitHub and securely fetch only the contents of the repository, branch, and documentation folder you specify. It never edits or commits files. • Clean Markdown rendering Supports headings, lists, code blocks, tables, images, and links. Optimized so even long specifications are comfortable to read. • Mermaid diagram rendering Renders Mermaid code such as flowcharts and sequence diagrams as real diagrams. Tap to zoom to full screen. • Manage multiple projects Set a repository, branch, and display folder per project. The last opened project and document are restored on launch. • Offline support Once fetched, content is cached on device, so you can read your most recently synced specs even with no connection. • Secure by design Limits the visible content to the folder you specify; it never reads source code or configuration files. Access tokens are stored only in the device Keychain and are never sent to any external server. ■ Who it's for • Engineers who want to quickly check their project's specs on the move or before a meeting • Anyone who wants to read documentation from multiple development repositories in one place • Anyone who wants to safely view private-repository design docs from their iPhone ■ Before you start Using this app requires a GitHub account and read access to the target repositories. To read private repositories, install the dedicated GitHub App on the target repository (the only permission required is Contents: read-only).
