Hi everyone, We decided to create Pocketdoor after going through a series of projects where spreadsheets and email led to confusion, late orders, and incorrect purchases. This caused unnecessary frustration, delay and expense. We figured there had to be a better way. At Pocketdoor, we believe that the project can be as delightful as the finished home.🙂🏠 Think about it…when your cousin got married did she email around a spreadsheet of gifts they wanted—and follow up with updates every few days? No, of course not. So why do we manage remodels, renovations and other home improvements this way?🤦‍♀️ Well, now we don’t. The happiest homeowners, designers and builders use Pocketdoor to: - save and share pics of designs they love - keep track of product decisions before making final selections - add items with ease (by URL, browser button, sharing to mobile app, …) - make sure that the right person buys the right item at the right time Check it out. Let us know what you think! And if you like new things, you can get early access to our iPhone app in the next week. Just sign up here: https://pocketdoor.com/early-access Thank you for the feedback! We love hearing from users. 👏

There are other project planning tools (trello, JIRA etc) but pocketdoor is tailored for home improvement projects.

Pros:

Helps project participants stay current on ever evolving home improvement plans

Cons:

Have freemium packaged designs with purchase lists to save the leg work of building out your own design from scratch

@nickrichards yes, definitely. @danmeyer1 is an Android user and wouldn't have it any other way!

@nickrichards the android app is already in process. we decided to prioritize the iPhone app because our early test/beta users were 2-3x more likely to be on iPhone. (but I much prefer Android and we are already pretty far along on that front...stay tuned!)

Nice and easy to import items from other websites with the Chrome extension.

Pros:

Home renovation made easy!

Cons:

Alternative is spreadsheets and email...

I’m excited to talk with friends and family undergoing home renovation projects to show off this power tool.

Pros:

I like the approach this team is using to solve the problem- spreadsheets are for calculating equations, not project management tools.

Cons:

I don’t know if there is a native iOS app.

Thank you @aaronjmandel We have been a responsive web app, but the iPhone app should be available for early access in the next week. (Click the "learn more" link to sign up.)

It looks like you have to copy a URL on mobile and then paste it into the web app. Is there another way to add items?

@jim_cook Great question. This is a big reason for putting effort into the iPhone app so early. When the app is released, from Safari you will be able to share directly to the app to: 1) have a better user experience (we don't like copy/paste either), and 2) get better data and images because we can use the version of the web page you actually viewed We should have the app available for early access on TestFlight in the next several days and on the app store later this month. You can sign up for early access here: https://pocketdoor.com/early-access Users on their computers have the same issue (although copy/paste isn't as much of a pain), which is why we created the Chrome extension and the Firefox add-on. Better to click a button than copy/paste! Welcome to Pocketdoor!
