A private, photo-forward project log for cross-stitch hobbyists
Tracks daily needlework with a photo timeline and a color-coded calendar, recording stitches, spacer counts, and progress percentages on the device. Made by StitchDiary for hobbyists who prefer offline, private record-keeping, the app groups projects as active, planned, or finished and offers Excel export and ZIP backup. It suits stitchers who keep multiple pieces and want visual habit data, especially anyone who prefers not to create an account or use cloud sync.
Records detailed project history without online accounts
The app stores project entries locally and does not require registration, so you keep project metadata and progress photos on your phone. Project types include active, planned, and finished pieces, and the diary accepts both crosses and spacers as daily inputs. That layout matches paper log habits while keeping all entries accessible on-device, and the developer's local-first stance means core functionality works without internet access.
Makes backups and exports accessible for long-term archiving
The export and backup tools let you move records off the device: data can be exported to Excel and saved or restored via a ZIP backup. These options let you build an external archive or open stitch histories in spreadsheet software for printing or analysis. The backup flow uses standard ZIP packaging, which keeps files portable across desktop and mobile environments.
Presents progress visually through photos and an activity calendar
Progress photo attachments and a color-coded stitch calendar give a visual history of how projects evolve. The calendar supports customizable color ranges so you can mark heavy sewing days differently from light ones, and an analytics dashboard surfaces daily, weekly, and monthly activity summaries. The Random Pattern selector additionally helps pick a next project when you juggle several pieces.
Targets hobbyists who track routine stitching habits
The app focuses on daily use: it records a stitch count for each day, calculates progress percentages, and provides filtering and sorting tools for large stashes. That makes it practical for weekend crafters, rotating sewists, and anyone who wants measurable habit data across months. On Android phones and tablets the interface keeps project lists and photo logs within a single, device-resident workspace.
To sum up, a private daily log for committed stitchers
To sum up, StitchDiary is a focused choice for cross-stitchers who want device-resident records and visual habit tracking; it fits people who avoid accounts and prefer portable exports. Less suitable for users who need cloud syncing or collaborative sharing, it nevertheless gives a reliable local workflow and straightforward archival exports for hobbyists tracking long-term stitching patterns.
