Home Stories: Renovation

About

Plan your renovation, track what it really costs, and keep every photo, quote and to-do in one place. Home Stories turns a kitchen remodel or a bathroom reno into a project you can actually see. NEW: BUILT FOR IPAD - Your projects sit in a sidebar and the project opens beside them - A task, item, note or document opens in an inspector alongside your work, not on top of it - Drag photos, PDFs and links straight in from Safari, Files or Photos - Keyboard shortcuts and pointer support NEW: YOUR PROJECTS ON EVERY DEVICE (PRO) - Turn on iCloud sync and your edits reach your other devices as you make them - Start a project on iPhone, carry on planning it on iPad - Sync stays off until you switch it on HOW IT WORKS 1. Create a project - give it a name, a start date and a budget 2. Add tasks, items, notes and documents as you go 3. The running total and the photo timeline build themselves TRACK THE MONEY - Every item you save adds its price to the project total - Budget vs. actual cost chart, so you see the overrun coming (Pro) - Log payments and keep materials, labour and contractor costs apart - Works in your own currency SAVE WHAT YOU FIND - Spot a sink in the store: snap it, add the price, the shop and a note - Share a product straight from Safari, Amazon or IKEA into a project - Keep quotes, contracts and receipts as documents - Notes for everything else - the carpenter's number, the paint code BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER - A photo timeline for the whole project - Side-by-side before and after comparison - Slideshow to show people what changed TASKS THAT DO NOT GET FORGOTTEN - Due dates and reminders (Pro) - Built-in time tracking with a Lock Screen timer and Dynamic Island (iPhone 14 Pro and later) - Home Screen widgets for budget progress and what is next SHARE THE PROJECT (PRO) - Invite a partner, a family member or your contractor - Everyone sees the same tasks, items and photos, kept in step through iCloud - Export a polished PDF report with a cover photo - the whole project or just the parts you need FREE, WITH A ONE-TIME PRO UPGRADE Unlimited projects, items, photos, notes, documents, time tracking, widgets, local backups and full data export are free, and stay free.
