ScrapCraft turns the offcuts piling up in your workshop into finished projects. Log a board's length, width, and thickness, and ScrapCraft instantly shows the woodworking plans you can build from the scrap you already own — no trip to the lumberyard. A SCRAP BIN THAT ACTUALLY HELPS Track every board by species, dimensions, surface, and quantity. See your total board feet, the dollar value of your offcuts, and how many species you have on hand. DIMENSIONS-FIRST PROJECT MATCHING Unlike inspiration feeds, ScrapCraft matches plans to the exact size of your material. A green "Build Now" badge means you can build a project entirely from your bin, right now. ADAPTIVE CUT LISTS Every project guide tells you which specific scrap piece to pull for each part — plus a shopping list for the few pieces you're missing. WORKSHOP ANALYTICS Watch your board-feet rescued, the dollars saved versus new lumber, and your buildability grow as your bin fills up.

HomeHQ is a secure home for the documents, records and logins your family cannot afford to lose — and a clear read on how prepared you actually are. When a passport expires, a policy renews, or someone has to find the will in a hurry, the answer should take seconds, not an afternoon of searching drawers. It is made for families who keep the household's paperwork — the parent who gets asked where the birth certificates are, and the one who wants everything findable if something happens. Unlike a plain file locker, it tells you how prepared you are and what is still missing. A PREPAREDNESS SCORE THAT EXPLAINS ITSELF A transparent 0-100 read on your household's records, computed on your device from what you have actually saved. It weighs seven categories — identity, legal and estate, financial, insurance, medical, property and emergency access — drops the items that don't apply to you, and always names the single next action that moves the number most. No black box, no guesswork. SCAN A DOCUMENT, KEEP ONLY THE TEXT Photograph an ID, policy or certificate and HomeHQ reads its title, type, issuer and dates into a form you confirm before anything is saved. The photo itself is never stored — only the details you approve. NEVER GET CAUGHT BY AN EXPIRY Every dated record gets an honest days-to-renewal badge against its real renewal window, gathered into one upcoming list, with an optional weekly reminder. EVERY LOGIN IN ONE PLACE Store the household's accounts, masked by default, with one-tap copy. A credential health read flags weak and reused passwords following current NIST guidance — and pointedly does not nag you to rotate them for no reason. BUILT FOR A FAMILY, NOT A FILING CABINET Add family members, attach records to the right person, designate a trusted emergency contact, note where the physical originals are kept, and generate a shareable emergency summary. Curated checklists walk you through a new baby, a move, getting affairs in order, or emergency prep. YOUR VAULT IS YOURS Start without an account — your vault stays on your device. Sign in whenever you like to back it up to your own account, protected by per-user security (scanning uses our server, so it needs a free account). Export a summary whenever you want, and delete your account and all of its data from inside the app. HOMEHQ PRO (optional subscription) The whole organizing core is free — the Preparedness Score, the what's-missing list, the credential health report, the emergency kit and sharing are yours at no cost. Pro simply lifts the limits: unlimited documents and logins (free keeps 40), unlimited family members (free keeps 3), unlimited document scans (free gives 2 a day), and renewal reminders. - $4.99 per month or $39.99 per year; a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase; the subscription auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings HomeHQ is an organizing and preparedness tool. It is not legal, medical or financial advice, and it is not a substitute for a professional.
