Timeboxd is an iPhone app for watch collectors to catalog, organize, and showcase their collection like a digital watch box. Add watches with photos, auto-fill details using AI, view collection stats, and enjoy beautiful watch cards. Built to feel native, visual, and enjoyable to browse - not like a spreadsheet. Free for up to 5 watches, with a one-time upgrade for unlimited.
Hi I’m David, the maker of Timeboxd.
I built it because as a recent watch collector I couldn’t find an app that felt good to use, and didn't require manual entry of watch details. Most options felt more like inventory software than something made for collectors. Timeboxd is designed to feel more like a digital watch box: a place to catalog your watches, browse them visually, see collection stats, and keep them secure.
It also became a personal challenge: as a UX/Product Designer, and non-coder, could I actually build something polished enough to ship on the App Store? I wanted to see what the gap between a "vibe-coded" prototype and real releasable product was.
Turns out, getting the prototype working was the easy part. Shipping meant dealing with edge cases, analytics, API keys, web domains and hosting, marketing, in-app purchases, App Store review, and all the less glamorous parts of turning an idea into a real product.
Would love any feedback from watch collectors, app people, or anyone curious about the process of building products using AI, and all the steps no one talks about.
