BuildBook is a project journal for model making, crafts, and DIY. Record each work session with photos and short notes without interrupting the work itself.
When you return, BuildBook shows what you did last time, what to do next, and the materials you used most recently, so you can get back to making quickly.
Key features
• Create a project with only a title
• See your previous work and next step at a glance
• Record work time, photos, quick notes, materials, and issues
• Browse a session-by-session project timeline
• Search across projects, work sessions, photos, and materials
• Export a photo-rich PDF project report
• Sync between devices on the same Apple Account with iCloud
• Export and restore a validated backup
The free tier supports up to three active projects. Core recording, project resumption, timelines, iCloud sync, and backup remain available for free.
BuildBook Pro unlocks unlimited active projects, advanced search, and photo PDF reports. Choose a monthly or yearly auto-renewable subscription. The yearly plan includes a 14-day free trial.
Your records are not deleted when a subscription ends. You can continue to view projects and export backups.
