BrickLoft is the local-first way to organize your LEGO® collection — built for people who actually build, display, and live with their bricks (and for parents keeping track of each kid's sets). Most trackers stop at what a set is worth. BrickLoft also tells you something you need every day: where it is. Browse your whole collection by physical location — "Office shelf B," "Attic bin 3," "Displayed — living room" — and find any set in seconds. ORGANIZE BY LOCATION - See every set and loose minifig grouped by where it physically lives - Tag shelves, bins, and display spots, then browse your collection like a map - Find what you're looking for without digging through boxes ADD SETS IN SECONDS - Scan a barcode or type a set number — details fill in automatically - Search the bundled offline catalog by name (tens of thousands of official sets) - Add loose and custom minifigs, too - Can't find a set? Add it by hand with its number and name - The catalog updates itself about once a week when you're online, so new sets show up without an app update TRACK WHAT MATTERS - Build state: sealed, built, disassembled, or in storage - Condition, instructions, box, purchase date and price - A per-set minifig checklist so you know what's present and what's missing - Add your own photos of built and displayed sets - Open the official building instructions for a set in one tap EXPLORE AND BUILD - Browse every LEGO® theme and see how many of its sets you own - Add any set straight from its theme - A build queue of your sealed and taken-apart sets, with a "Pick one for me" button KEEP A WISHLIST - Mark sets as Wanted and see which have retired, from Brickset data in the app - Get retirement news when a set on your wishlist has just retired - Share your wishlist with family as a gift list - A built-in duplicate check warns you if you already own a set — across every collection (perfect before buying a gift) A COLLECTION FOR EVERYONE - Create multiple collections — one per family member, theme, or room - Move sets and minifigs between collections anytime - See each collection as a box-art grid or a list - Make it yours with an accent color and a light, dark, or system theme SEE THE BIG PICTURE - Stats for sets owned, total pieces, minifigs, top themes, and build state, plus highlights and milestones - Record what you paid and what you think a set is worth, with an honest gain/loss view - See each set's retail price (US, UK, Canada or euro), plus an approximate BrickLink resale value (USD) - Print an insurance inventory (PDF) of every set you own: condition, location, what you paid and what each is worth, with totals YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS - Works offline, with no account, ever — nothing about your collection is uploaded or synced. Set pictures and catalog updates download when you're online - Full backup and restore, including photos — your collection lives on your device and in the backup you choose - A gentle reminder to back up, with the date of your last backup - Import from a spreadsheet or a BrickLink wanted list, and export to CSV, Rebrickable set lists, or BrickLink want lists anytime - Optional analytics with a one-tap off switch in Settings Available in English, German, Spanish, French, Russian, and Polish. No subscriptions. No social feed. No marketplace. Just a fast, private, beautifully simple place to organize the bricks you love. Download BrickLoft and finally know where everything is. — LEGO® is a trademark of the LEGO Group, which does not sponsor, authorize, or endorse this app. BrickLoft is an independent app. Set data is sourced from Rebrickable; retail prices, retirement data and estimated market values are from Brickset (market values via the BrickLink Price Guide).
