Vitrio

Read full description

Vitrio is a catalog for the things you collect โ€” records, LEGO sets, whisky, retro games, board games, and anything else you decide to add. Scan a record or a bottle and Vitrio fills in the title, artist, year and cover art. Everything else you add by name โ€” once, and never again. WHAT IT DOES โ€ข Scan barcodes โ€” records and bottles fill themselves in from free, open catalogs โ€ข Search by name when a barcode is missing, worn, or simply not indexed โ€ข "You already have this" โ€” a duplicate warning before you buy a second copy โ€ข Wishlist for the pieces you want but don't own yet โ€ข Track what each piece is worth and watch the total move over time โ€ข Insurance-ready PDF report with photos, purchase details and serial numbers โ€ข CSV export of every field โ€” free forever, no lock-in MAKE IT YOURS Five catalogs are built in. If you collect coins, stamps, watches or comics, add your own category with its own name and icon โ€” it behaves exactly like the built-in ones. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign-up. Your collection lives in your own private iCloud and syncs between your devices โ€” nowhere else. No analytics, no tracking, no ads. And if you ever want to leave, the CSV export is complete and free. WORKS WITHOUT SIGNAL Scan in a basement record shop with no bars. Vitrio saves what it has and finishes the lookup by itself once you are back online. HONEST ABOUT VALUE Values are estimates you record and adjust yourself โ€” useful for insurance and for seeing how a collection moves. They are not a professional appraisal, and Vitrio never pretends otherwise. FREE AND PRO Free: up to 100 items, every feature above, CSV export included. Vitrio Pro: unlimited items and the insurance PDF report. Note: LEGO set lookup uses Rebrickable and needs a free key you create yourself. It takes a minute, and Vitrio shows you where.

About

MindScope

Features
Read full description

Make a little room for curiosity. MindScope brings together reasoning puzzles, knowledge questions and self-reflection on your iPhone. Explore at your own pace in English, Dutch or Spanish. THINK STUDIO Play four original practice games: Memory Trail, Spot the Change, Number Detective and Mental Rotation. Complete eight tasks per session with gradually adaptive difficulty, follow a personal 20-session plan, and review each answer. Resume unfinished sessions and challenge friends with a code for the same tasks. Answers and results can be shared separately. YOUR DAY, THREE SMALL STEPS My Day combines a thinking puzzle, a knowledge question and a reflection prompt in a short daily routine. Continue where you left off and read the explanation behind each answer. Reflection has no right or wrong answer. PRACTICE AT YOUR LEVEL My Day adjusts the difficulty gradually using your recent answers. Knowledge rounds adapt separately for each subject, with a manual level option. Explore patterns, numbers, logic and spatial reasoning, then review your answers and explanations. A WORLD OF KNOWLEDGE Explore 360 Knowledge & Culture questions across Geography, History, Art History, Science, Nature & Ecology, and Language & Literature. Practise in five-question rounds across three difficulty levels. The separate Daily Challenge offers another daily activity from a bank of 360 challenges. SEE YOUR WEEK Your weekly overview brings together My Day activity, practice sessions, knowledge rounds and completed personal actions. Review results by subject and level, revisit a missed question and find a concrete next step. Comparisons appear when enough comparable practice answers are available. CHALLENGE A FRIEND Share a puzzle card or a text challenge with an App Store link. Share the answer separately when you are ready. Your personal results stay off the card. EXPLORE YOUR OWN RESPONSES Try modules involving cognitive reasoning, emotional awareness, self-awareness and personal judgment. Complete Profile brings your responses together in a longer assessment. Follow up on personal suggestions with practical actions. YOUR LANGUAGE, YOUR DEVICE Choose English, Dutch or Spanish in Settings. Questions, explanations, reports and PDF exports follow your selected language. No account is required. Results are stored locally on your device. FREE PRACTICE, OPTIONAL REPORTS Practice modules, My Day, Knowledge & Culture, Daily Challenges and the Complete Profile assessment are free. After a Complete Profile, you can optionally purchase the detailed report for that session, including session scores, personality-trait descriptions, strengths and attention points, personal suggestions and a PDF. Each new report is a separate purchase. There is no subscription. ABOUT YOUR RESULTS MindScope is an informational self-exploration app, not an IQ test, diagnosis, clinical assessment or independently normed or validated instrument. Percentages describe a session, not population percentiles. Practice trends do not establish a change in intelligence. Knowledge results are kept separate from reasoning and personality scores.
