Kunst Collection

Kunst Collection: for art lovers, collectors, artists—and anyone who wants to organize their art at home and have it with them on the go. Your artworks at your fingertips, in one app—your own personal, clear, and mobile archive!

EXCEL FILE INSTEAD OF DATABASE
An Excel spreadsheet is used as a “database,” which you can even edit conveniently on your Mac. Images and Excel files can be easily exchanged between different devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac) – just like files on a memory stick. If you already have data and images on your Mac, you can transfer them directly to the Excel file. Your data remains entirely under your control. No data, files, or images are sent to servers or stored online.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR YOU?
Your artworks remain in your personal care, also digitally. Whatever data you enter into the app, whatever images you capture, whatever PDF files you create: everything remains on your own device as your “personal collection.” If you wish, you can transfer the Kunst Collection to other devices—for example, from your iPhone to an iPad or Macbook: just copy the files as you would on a memory stick. And, of course, only you can see your artwork: we do not evaluate any data, analyze any images, read your printouts, or train any AI systems. Actually we don’t have your data at all :-) So you can use the Kunst Collection with complete peace of mind.

– In case you didn’t know: With “Long Press” on the space bar, the keyboard of any iOS app turns into a trackpad for cursor placement.
– On a Mac with an Apple processor, the Kunst Collection will also run of course.
