Your hands are covered in clay. Just talk.

Mud Hands is a pottery journal you can speak to. Tap the mic, or shake your phone, and say what happened at the wheel. Mud Hands turns it into a note on the right pot, and it knows pottery words that other dictation gets wrong: tenmoku, celadon, onggi, leather-hard, grogged, bisque, cone 6.

SPEAK, DON'T TYPE
• Dictate notes on any pot or stage, in your own words
• Shake to record: start a voice note without touching the screen with muddy hands
• Throwing a run? Start a capture session, say a few words after each pot, and each one becomes its own entry
• Built for pottery vocabulary, so "cone six" comes back as cone 6 and "tenmoku" stays tenmoku

EVERY POT, WHEEL TO KILN
• Six stages: forming, drying, trimming, bisque, glazing and glaze firing
• Photos at every stage, so you can see how a pot changed
• Wheel-thrown or handbuilt: pinch, coil and slab, with a separate entry for each coiling session
• Clay body, weight, size and wall thickness, in centimetres and grams or inches and pounds

GLAZES AND CLAY
• A library of your glazes, underglazes, slips and clay bodies, ready to pick from
• Glaze layers in order, with application, coats and placement: inside, outside, rim or all over
• See every pot a glaze has been used on, with the clay, cone and atmosphere. Your pots become your test tiles
• Measured shrinkage from greenware to fired, worked out from your own pots

REMEMBER WHAT COMES NEXT
• To-dos on each stage: wrap in plastic, check if leather-hard, wax the foot
• Reminders on your phone when they're due
• Set up your own to-dos for each stage, so they're ready when you need them

YOUR LOG STAYS ON YOUR PHONE
• No account and no sign-up
• Your pots, photos and notes are stored on your phone, not on our servers
• Export a backup file whenever you like, or a printable catalogue of your work
• Works without a connection. Voice notes need one, to turn speech into text
