Features
What Showcaser does today, one line each. Every line links to the manual for the detail.
What visitors see
A calm site that's yours
Real pages, fast on every phone, at your name or your own domain.
Your own domain
Point a domain you own at your showcase; the app shows what to change and checks it works.
Real pages, found by search
Every page is rendered on the server, with a sitemap and structured data for search.
Search in the visitor's browser
Search and category buttons run in the visitor's browser; nothing is sent anywhere.
Contact is links, not forms
Call, text, email and a map, straight from the page. Nothing a visitor types is stored.
Pages for everything else
Add tabs like Sell, Consignment or About: a title, a few paragraphs, photos if you like.
A header photo
One wide photo across the top of every page, under your name.
Chosen, never written
Layouts, themes and type
A few layouts made with care; colours and type you pick. Every showcase stays good-looking.
Cards or Gallery
Cards for things with a price under them; Gallery for pictures whole, hung on a wall.
Themes, or your own
Pick a shared theme or make your own from a few colors; contrast is always kept.
Fonts from your own site
Curated faces served from your own site, never a font service, so nobody else watches.
The app wears your site
The back office is drawn in the colours your site is published in, on every device.
The daily job
Listings
Photos first, then the few fields that matter, then publish.
Photos and video
Photos are resized and their location removed on your device; video plays everywhere.
The cover and the order
Drag to reorder, on the Mac, iPad or iPhone; the first is the cover.
Statuses that mean something
Available, Pending, Sold, Hidden or your own; each on the site or not, marked or not.
A private note on a status
“Dave, back Oct 20”: only in the app, sealed before it leaves the device.
Real sizes
Width, height and depth in inches or centimeters, checked against the photo.
View on your wall
In the Gallery, a piece with real dimensions opens in AR at its size on iPhone and iPad.
Words, gently
Descriptions take bold, italics, headings, lists and links: enough to give them shape.
Fields, not schemas
Fields that suit what you show
Start from Vehicles, Artwork, Tools or General; rename, hide and add fields from a few plain types.
Built-in schemas
Vehicles, Artwork, Tools and General; the first edit makes one your own.
A few plain types
Text, number, money, year, date, choice, dimensions and markdown. Nothing required.
Fields only you can read
A cost price or a note, sealed with the showcase's key: not on the site, unreadable to us.
Headline, search and the price sort
Choose which fields make the title and which are searched; visitors sort by price.
Change it without losing anything
Switching or removing a field says what happens first; values can be kept and come back.
Your devices are the back office
iPhone, iPad and Mac
No web admin. Everything happens in the app, on whichever device is in your hand.
One purchase, every device
The same app on iPhone, iPad and Mac, and your showcases on each.
Two devices, one showcase
Edit on the iPad while the iPhone is in your pocket; nobody saves over a change unseen.
Drag photos in on the Mac
From the Finder or Photos onto a listing, or onto the list to start a new one.
Side by side, or in a window
Command-click to put a listing beside the list, or open any card in a window of its own.
Keyboard shortcuts
New listing, publish, refresh and every status, from the keyboard.
Several showcases
Your own and a client's, each with its own key, site and listings; switch at the top.
Nobody owns it but you
Yours, and private
No account, no password, nothing about visitors.
No account, no password
Your showcase is a key in your iCloud Keychain, on every device you own.
A recovery key
Print it, save it in a password manager, or show it as a QR code for another device.
Nothing about visitors
No tracking, no view counts, no analytics, no forms: visitors leave nothing behind.
Honest pictures
Never generated, never enhanced: the photo you took, resized and nothing else.
