The most complete lab companion.

ICLOUD SYNC Cultures, experiments, reagents, freezer items, notebook entries, plate layouts, tasks, recipes, protocols, equipment, and photos sync automatically across iPhone, iPad, and Mac (Apple Silicon).

CALCULATORS (30) Hemocytometer, Cell Seeding, Hydrogel Encapsulation (3D), Cell Splitting, Freezing Medium, Transfection Mix, Kill Curve, Viability, OD600, CFU/mL, Reagent Dosing, C1V1 Dilution, Fold Dilution, Serial Dilution, Molarity, Percent Solution, Media Recipe Builder, Buffer Recipe Builder, IC50/EC50, Master Mix, Ligation, Primer Tm, DNA/RNA, Bradford/BCA, Western Blot Loading, MOI (plate-aware), Virus Titer, ELISA 4PL Standard Curve, Unit Converter, Centrifuge RPM/RCF. Pin favorites and log every input to your notebook.

SCAN YOUR PAPER LAB Scan a printed protocol (or PDF) and it becomes an editable, timed protocol (requires Apple Intelligence). Scan handwritten or printed pages into your notebook: filed by day, photos attached, text searchable.

EXPERIMENT TRACKER Link cultures, reagents, protocols, plate layouts, cell lines, virus stocks, equipment, and photos. Timestamped text and voice notes. Due dates on checklist steps appear in your calendar, tasks, and cards. Save any run as a reusable template. Export a polished A4 PDF.

CULTURE TRACKER Log passages, splits, feeds, observations, and mycoplasma tests. Confluency prediction shows when cells are ready. Per-culture feeding schedules drive alerts and notifications at your preferred hour.

REAGENT LOTS Multiple lots per reagent: lot number, vendor, catalog, open and expiry dates, remaining fraction, price, performance notes. Tap a GS1 barcode to fill lot and expiry, or photograph the label to fill the form (Apple Intelligence).

PLATE LAYOUT PLANNER Design 6- to 96-well plates with up to 4 color-coded conditions. Paint wells by dragging, add per-well names and notes, link to experiments, export PNG or PDF.

PROTOCOL TIMERS & TIME COURSES 38 built-in protocol templates with step-by-step timers, plus custom protocols. Time courses: T0 plus your time points, each a countdown timer. Live Activities on Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. Control Center Lab Timer. Apple Watch companion with haptic alerts and a Lab Timer complication.

LAB NOTEBOOK Daily entries: procedures, quick notes, voice notes, measurement tables. Browse by day, week, or month. Export PDF or CSV.

VOICE NOTES Dictate hands-free while gloved. On-device speech recognition; nothing leaves your phone.

PHOTO EDITOR Annotate gel and microscopy photos with labels, arrows, and crop. Apple Pencil freehand on iPad. Live Text: copy text straight from saved photos.

LAB REFERENCE 20 cell line profiles, 100+ reagents, auto-scaling buffer recipes, fluorophore spectra, GHS hazards, a genetic-code table, and 20 interactive app tours.

INVENTORY Track reagents, equipment, frozen vials, virus stocks, and 18 freezer item types (antibodies, plasmids, primers, siRNA, proteins, buffers, and more) with expiry and maintenance alerts. Freezer Manager: build any Tank > Rack > Box hierarchy with custom box geometry, unified map, mass-freeze, barcode scanner, printable box labels.

TODAY DASHBOARD Daily tasks, culture alerts, experiment progress, and overdue checklist steps in one view.

SEARCH, WIDGETS, SIRI, SPOTLIGHT Search every data type. Home and Lock Screen widgets. "Hey Siri, start a lab timer." Spotlight and quick actions.

BACKUP & SHARING Export every record as CSV, re-import to update in place. Share a Lab Bundle: hand a colleague just your freezer, reagents, protocols, or cell lines; they import it with a preview. Printable Lab Handover Pack PDF.

PRIVACY Your data lives in your private iCloud database, readable only by your signed-in Apple devices. The developer never sees it. No tracking, no analytics, no accounts. Voice recognition, scanning, photo editing, and PDF generation run on-device. iCloud sync can be turned off any time.
