WOOD LOOKUP A new offline reference under Home → Utilities. Browse 600+ wood species on your phone—no account, no download, and it works in the shop with no signal. • Search as you type by common name or scientific name • Filter by region and Janka hardness, or show Favorites only • Sort by name, Janka (hardest first), region, or strength-to-weight • Detail screens with a grain photo, prominent Janka hardness, and grouped origin, density, strength, and shrinkage info • Star species from the list or the detail screen; favorites stay on your device and sync with your backup if you use one SHOP TOOLS Since the last App Store version, the tools you actually tap every day got a lot of attention: • Fraction Calculator — tape-measure math: live preview, kerf mode, improper fractions that carry the way they should, repeat-equals, show-your-work steps, and one-tap send into cut lists, projects, or the journal • Cut List (Dimensional) — exact-fit boards no longer report zero cuts; saving opens the list you just saved; adding stock or parts takes on the first tap and confirms it worked • Cut List (Sheet Goods) — same reliable save-and-open flow; name, notes, and date sit above the print/share icons instead of getting squeezed • First launch — language and the one-time Privacy Policy / Terms acknowledgment are now one screen, not two gates in a row UNDER THE HOOD This is a native store update (not an over-the-air patch), so it also includes the platform work that future updates ride on: • Upgraded to Expo SDK 55 (React Native 0.83) • Smaller, faster over-the-air updates from here — the app can download a patch of what changed instead of the whole bundle • Shop Journal voice notes now use the current audio stack; unused older media libraries are gone As always: free, no ads, no subscription. Your data stays on your device unless you choose to back it up.

We are constantly working to make Woodworker's Companion the most reliable tool in your shop. Here is what is new in this version: Automatic Cloud Backups: Never lose your shop data again. You can now securely connect your personal iCloud or Google Drive account to handle automatic backups and cross-device restores. Because we don't use a central database, your data remains strictly between your device and your private cloud. We never see it. A Cleaner Shop: We did some deep cleaning and UX polishing. Enjoy a refined interface and smoother navigation for a better overall experience when logging projects or running calculations. General performance improvements and under-the-hood optimizations.

Version 2.12.0 introduces a new Cut List (Dimensional) workflow with visual board diagrams, improved stock/profile handling, and a cleaner summary view for purchase order + expected offcuts. We also added Quotes & Invoices settings with default Terms & Conditions, improved saved sheet-goods re-optimize editing, and delivered bug and ui fixes across the app.

This update mostly just handles changing the cut list optimizer measurements over to mm per many requests from our users overseas. It also enhances the history/saved cut lists functionality, including sharing and editing. Some other little bug fixes have been implemented as well.

100% USER FEEDBACK - LOTS of updates for folks using metric: - fixed issues where decimals were converting to fractions, removed fraction rounding setting when on metric, added ability to use decimals and choose between mm, cm, and m when calculating volume or using other features, and more - Fixed parenthesis issues with fraction calc - Added over 100 wood species to movement calc plus better instructions - Fixed characters used for French and Espanol in the language list - On the developer side - added LOTS of testing to ensure stability - Added redundant "save" buttons in areas where elements may be blocking the screen from showing them - See change log in app settings!!

2.7.0 — Journal measurements, inventory keyboard fixes, and stability Shop journal now supports multiple measurements per entry with full editing; inventory and category-field forms no longer get blocked by the keyboard; plus React warnings and bug fixes across the app. • Shop journal: save a set of measurements per entry (e.g. Length, Width, Height) with labels and units; edit any measurement's value, label, and units from Entry Details. • Journal measurement numbers are no longer squished—improved spacing and line height when entering, viewing, and editing. • Inventory: editing an item or adding one now keeps inputs visible above the on-screen keyboard with dynamic padding and scroll. • Settings → Inventory categories → Edit fields: Add/Edit field modals no longer have content hidden or over-scrolled when the keyboard appears. • Various React warnings and bugs fixed for a more stable experience.

* Many backend enhancements to the decibel meter for improved accuracy * Better visuals when using "quick fractions" in board foot calc, epoxy calc, cut list optimizer, and other areas that utilize this feature * Expanded automated testing - working to get app fully tested in the background to reduce introduction of bugs and issues in future releases

Overhauled the inventory feature to start fresh and fix many bugs and issues. No change should be seen on the user's end, and their current inventory will be preserved, BUT they may lose some custom fields in certain categories. I apologize if that happens to you. Future updates will be OTC, and user's will get an "Update Available" popup. We will not have to kep adding minor versions unless we release new features or other big updates.

Export Your Data: - Users can export all app data—including projects, clients, inventory, quotes, invoices, and settings—to a single JSON backup file. Simply tap "Export Data" in Settings, and the iOS share sheet will appear, allowing users to save the backup to Files, iCloud Drive, or share via email, AirDrop, or any other method. Restore Your Data: - To restore from a backup, users tap "Import Data" in Settings, select their backup file using the native file picker, and confirm the restoration. All data is restored instantly. IMPORTANT: Backups are performed manually by the user. This app does NOT automatically back up data. Users are responsible for creating and maintaining their own backups. I strongly recommend exporting a backup regularly, especially before uninstalling the app or updating to a new device. Privacy-First Design: - In keeping with our commitment to user privacy, all data remains on the user's device. Backup files are created locally and shared only through user-initiated actions. No user-generated data is ever transmitted by us to external servers.
