DBHub is an everyday organizer you can make your own. Organize your wardrobe, keep reading lists, track spending, or capture daily moods and progress—all in one place, easy to find and revisit. Start with a template and add your own content. Adjust what you record and how you view it as your needs grow. RECORD WHAT MATTERS TO YOU • Wardrobe & belongings: Save categories, prices, and purchase dates to keep track of what you own. • Books & movies: Keep reading and watch lists, track progress, and save ratings and thoughts. • Money & plans: Log spending, subscriptions, and travel costs. Keep savings goals and wish lists together. • Daily life & habits: Record moods, meals, exercise, and sleep to look back on your routines. • Learning & growth: Organize study materials, track progress, and use a focus timer to log time spent studying or working. MAKE IT YOURS For a book, record its title, author, and reading progress. For clothing, add color, size, and price. These details are called fields. Add or remove them as needed, and turn common answers into options to reduce typing. Combine text, numbers, dates, ratings, progress, checklists, images, and audio. Choose theme colors and icons to tell your collections apart. A collection groups related content into tables, each with its own page. A Reading collection could have separate tables for books read, books to read, reading progress, and notes. Each book or note is a record. CONNECT RELATED RECORDS Link reading notes to books, follow-ups to contacts, or bills to accounts within the same collection. Find related information and avoid entering it twice. Set up formulas to calculate results from your recorded values. SEE THINGS YOUR WAY Browse records in lists, detailed pages, or cards. Search, filter, sort, and mark favorites, or revisit records by date on a timeline. Save multiple views of the same table, each with its own visible fields, filters, and sorting. Switch between “Currently Reading” and “Finished” without organizing your book list all over again. LOOK BACK AND KEEP GOING See how much you spent or how long you studied. Use line charts for trends, bar charts for comparisons, pie charts for proportions, and heat maps for patterns. Choose what to measure, then resize and rearrange charts to suit your review. Set reminders for important records, keep a journal, and organize what comes next with to-dos. WORKS WITH FAMILIAR APPLE FEATURES • Widgets: View collections, charts, and focus status.
