F1 · Cabinet
See the working set without making it public.
The cabinet is an asymmetric overview of current object cards and local review activity. It helps the device user return to unfinished work without creating a public profile, shared catalogue or searchable inventory.
Entries are intentionally labelled as working records. The app does not assign institutional accession numbers or claim to maintain an authoritative collection database.
F2 · Object Passport
Start broad and remain provisional.
Capture a working title, broad material group, storage zone, handling note and review priority. The field design discourages confidential, legal, financial, medical, security or youth information because none of it is needed.
Not an identity certificate. An Object Passport does not authenticate an object, prove title, verify provenance, assign rights or establish value.
F3 · Condition Sweep
Five lenses, three modest states.
Surface, Structure, Environment, Handling and Documentation can each be marked Not reviewed, Watch or Stable. These are local attention markers—not diagnoses or conservation outcomes.
Watch
Something deserves attention or comparison. Pause if the issue may be unstable or unsafe.
Stable
The user observed no immediate change at that moment. It is not a guarantee of condition.
F4 · Shelf Map
Twelve bays, kept abstract.
Users can attach their own local working codes to a simple twelve-bay map. The feature avoids GPS, street addresses, precise facility plans, barcode scans and QR data.
A bay is only a private visual cue inside the app. It should not replace a secure location register, controlled access system or institutional inventory.
F5 · Move Card
Prepare the complete handoff.
Before
Review support, the object's visible state, participants and a simple destination nickname.
Route
Consider clearance, surfaces, doors, waiting points and interruptions before lifting or moving anything.
Handoff
Make responsibilities and the receiving point clear. Pause if conditions differ from the plan.
Arrival
Set the object down safely, compare the working observation and note open follow-up questions.
F6 · Review Table
Keep the question attached to the context.
Create a private agenda card, select a review focus and write a local session summary. Review Table is suited to reminders such as “compare support options” or “confirm access protocol,” not legal determinations or approval workflows.
Use an organisation's own recordkeeping, permissions and consultation processes whenever the working note relates to sensitive or controlled material.
F7 · Study Drawers
Forty-six cards for slower observation.
Six groups—Materials, Looking Closely, Storage, Movement, Continuity and Interpretation—pair original illustrations with short educational prompts. They introduce questions rather than prescribe treatment.
F8 · Privacy Centre
Controls belong to the device user.
Read the full policy, reset the private workspace or start an optional export through Android's system document interface. Export never starts automatically; the user chooses the destination and controls later sharing.
Uninstalling or clearing app storage normally removes local app data. Android backup and device transfer are disabled for this release.
