BuildList

Plan the build. Track the parts.

Every project starts with a list of things to get. BuildList keeps that list for you — what you need, how many, what it costs, and whether it’s already on the bench. Make a project, add the parts, and check them off as they come in.

Available in the App Store

iPhone (iOS 18+)

Made for any project

Big or small, if it has a parts list, it fits. A few things people plan with it:

  • 🪚 Workbench
  • 🌱 Raised garden bed
  • 🖥 PC build
  • 📚 Bookshelf
  • 🌳 Treehouse
  • 🛁 Bathroom remodel
  • 🎨 Craft project
  • 🚲 Bike restoration
  • 🏡 Fence repair
  • 🎁 Party supplies

What it does

Just the essentials, kept simple enough to use with sawdust on your hands.

A list per project

Keep as many projects as you like, each with its own list of parts and materials. Names are checked so you never end up with two of the same.

Know the cost up front

Enter a price and quantity for each item and BuildList keeps a running total for the whole project, so the budget is never a surprise.

Needed, on the way, got it

Mark each item Not Obtained, In Transit, or Acquired. A color dot on every row shows where things stand at a glance.

See your progress

Each project shows a progress bar and how many items you’ve gathered out of the total, so you know when you’re ready to start building.

Notes on anything

Add a description to any item for the details that matter — sizes, model numbers, where to buy it, or what the store clerk said.

At home on iOS

Swipe to delete, light and dark mode, and support for larger text sizes. It looks and feels like it belongs on your iPhone.

Private by default

No account, no sign-in, no analytics, no ads. Your projects stay on your device and are never sent anywhere. Read the privacy policy.
