ViniVault/Phone

A vinyl collection app without an app store

You do not have to wait for a store listing to catalogue records. ViniVault runs in the browser and on your home screen.

An account is the install

Create the account, sign in, and add the icon. That is the whole setup. There is no second download, and there is no store listing to wait for.

The same address works on a computer when you want a bigger screen for a long cataloguing session, a Discogs import, or an export of the collection. The phone and the computer share the account.

You are not tied to one make of phone. Safari on iPhone and Chrome on Android both reach the vault. Add the icon on each device you actually use.

What 'no store' changes

Updates are there when you open the site. You do not schedule an install, and you do not keep an old version because you have not visited a store. The records stay in the account through those updates.

The free shelf holds 100 records, which is enough to learn the app on a real crate. Pro is £1.99 a month for an unlimited shelf. Paying, when it is offered, is for the account. It is not a fee for downloading an app.

How this works in ViniVault

Use Create account on this page. After you are in, Add Records is where the shelf starts. Then add the site to the home screen so the next shop visit is one tap.

The public pages are not the collection. Sign in, and the shelf is the private part.

Questions

Where do I download it?
You do not. Open the site, sign in, and add it to the home screen.
Is the collection stored only in the browser?
No. It is stored with your account. Clearing a browser or changing phones does not delete the shelf. Sign in again and it is there.
