Got a pile of unpainted models and no clear plan? Hobby Dataslate is the Warhammer 40K hobby tracker that turns your backlog into painted armies — free on Android, iOS, and web.
See every model from sprue to shelf. Log 15-minute Paint Drops. Save recipes so you never forget how you painted a unit. Build army lists with live points and know exactly what's left to finish.
WHY HOBBYISTS INSTALL IT
• Track painting progress across your whole collection — not just army lists
• Add Combat Patrols and box sets in one tap (or scan the barcode)
• 1,600+ datasheets, faction organization, and a full Wishlist → Finished pipeline
• Desk sessions, streaks, and a "what to paint next" wheel when you're stuck
• Paint recipes you can copy between units — and a catalog of 11,000+ paints
• Import BattleScribe / New Recruit / WH40k app lists, then see owned vs shortfall
• Free tournament PDF export, spending logs, and collection valuation docs
