About this app

A collection lives mostly in your head - what you have, what condition it is in, what it cost, what is still missing. Collex writes it all down. Make a space for anything worth keeping - records, sneakers, coins, cameras, first editions, LEGO, trading cards - choosing from seventeen ready-made categories or naming your own, then give it an icon, an accent colour, a cover photo and, if you want one, a target to reach. Fill it with items one at a time and it becomes a catalogue you can actually hold.

Every item is more than a photo. Name it, shoot it with the camera or pull it from your gallery, then record its condition on a five-grade scale, its price and quantity, where it is stored, the day you bought it, a rating out of five and as many tags as it needs. Mark whether you own it, sold it or archived it. And because no two collections describe their things the same way, you define your own fields per collection - Year, Publisher, Rarity, whatever the category demands - and every item inside it carries them.

Open a collection and it is yours to arrange: sort by name, by newest, by highest rated or by highest value, filter down to just the favourites, the ones with photos, the ones still unrated, and switch between a grid and a list at a tap. Search inside a single collection or across your whole library at once - matching names, notes, storage locations, tags and your custom fields alike - and watch a progress ring on each collection close in on its goal as you go.

Then there is the Atlas: your entire library drawn as a night sky. Each collection is a galaxy, each item a star - sized by its rating, coloured by its collection. Pan across it, pinch to zoom, and tap any star to light up its constellation, every other item that shares a tag with it. The pieces that share a tag with nothing else drift out as lonely stars, so the gaps in your own web are visible at a glance rather than buried in a list.

The Statistics screen reads the whole catalogue back to you - total items and estimated value, a breakdown by condition, a chart of your biggest categories, a cumulative growth curve, a twelve-month heatmap of everything you added, and how your ratings fall across five stars - so the shape of what you keep is never a mystery.

Everything runs on the device. No account, no connection, nothing to sign up for. Your photographs and records stay yours - a sample collection is there to show the way and can be removed in a single tap, and currency, default layout and haptics all switch to taste. Nothing ever leaves your phone.
