PrismKit
Read full descriptionHide full description
PrismKit is a developer's Swiss Army knife: a collection of fast tools that run entirely on your iPhone and iPad — offline, with nothing ever sent to a server. Paste a production token, a private config, or any sensitive data with confidence. Everything is processed locally on your device. TOOLS INCLUDED • JSON ↔ YAML — Convert between both formats in either direction. • JSON ↔ TOON — Convert to and from TOON, the compact format that saves tokens when working with AI models. • JSON Format — Format, validate, and minify with error detection. • Base64 — Encode and decode text. • URL Encode — Encode and decode URL strings. • JWT Decoder — Inspect the header and payload, see the expiry, and verify the HMAC signature (HS256, HS384, and HS512). • Hash — Generate SHA-256, SHA-512, and MD5. • QR Code — Generate and customize QR codes with colors, a logo, and PNG export. • UUID — Generate unique identifiers in batches. • Regex Tester — Test regular expressions and see matches and their groups. • Diff — Compare two versions of text line by line and spot the differences. BUILT TO BE FAST • Command palette (⌘K) to jump to any tool in seconds. • Mark your favorite tools to keep them within reach. • Copy any result with a tap. • Optimized for iPhone and iPad, with a two-column layout on larger screens. • Light, dark, and automatic themes. PRIVACY FIRST • 100% offline: no tool needs an internet connection. • No accounts, no analytics, no ads, no tracking. • We collect absolutely no data. Made by developers, for developers.

Usages brings AI coding-tool usage into one private dashboard.

FEATURES • View multiple providers in one dashboard • Track remaining quota and reset times • Review daily token and cost history when the provider supplies it • Set a personal daily token goal • Get usage alerts and a daily reminder at a time you pick, on time even when the app is closed • Add Home Screen widgets for quick status checks • Use Usages on iPad, with a sidebar and two-column screens • Focus with a countdown or Pomodoro timer, focus sounds, focus stats, and a breathing pause before distracting apps • Import supported local usage logs for on-device summaries USAGES PRO The free plan includes two providers and one quota alert. Usages Pro, an auto-renewable subscription, connects every provider and turns on every alert: thresholds you choose, window resets, run-out forecasts, pace, budget and your daily goal. Yearly or monthly; manage or cancel in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Usages has no accounts. OAuth tokens and Admin API keys are stored in the iOS Keychain and never leave your device. Usage history, settings, and imported summaries stay on your device, and can optionally sync through your own private iCloud. Server alerts upload only the numbers those alerts need, under a random install ID that is not linked to you, and can be turned off in Settings. Crash reports and anonymous product analytics never include credentials, emails, account names or usage figures, are not used for tracking, and can be turned off in Settings. No advertising. Usages is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any supported service provider. Available metrics vary by provider and account type.
