Is Home Stories free to use?

Yes, it's free! We also offer a Premium Lifetime upgrade with more advanced features for serious renovators.

Does the app work offline?

Absolutely! Home Stories is designed to work fully offline so you can access your projects, budgets, and photos even without internet access - perfect for job sites.

Can I share projects with others?

Yes! With iCloud sync your projects stay up to date across your devices. You can also export professional PDF reports to share with contractors, family, or keep for records.

How do I export reports?

Simply open your project, tap the export button, and choose PDF. Home Stories generates a professional report with your budget summary, task progress, photos, and notes.

What devices are supported?

Home Stories is currently available for iPhone and requires iOS 17.0 or later. We're focused on delivering the best possible experience on iOS first.

Does Home Stories have widgets?

Yes. Add a budget progress ring and upcoming tasks to your Home Screen and Lock Screen, and use Live Activities with Dynamic Island to keep a project timer in view while you work — all without opening the app.

Can I collaborate with a partner or contractor?

Yes. Share a project over iCloud and it stays in sync in real time across everyone's devices, so a partner, family member, or contractor can follow the budget, tasks, and photos as they change.

What languages is Home Stories available in?

Home Stories is fully translated into 51 languages, including English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Danish, Dutch, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and many more, with full VoiceOver and Dynamic Type accessibility support.

Can I track costs by category, like materials and labour?

Yes — costs live where the work is. Break the project into phases and tasks, then attach the materials, fixtures, labour items, and quotes each one needs. The budget chart rolls it all up as spent, committed, and remaining, and the PDF report itemizes it.

How do I manage multiple contractors?

Group the work into phases and tasks so each trade knows what happens when — electrician before plasterer. Share the project over iCloud so a contractor can follow the budget, tasks, and photos live, or export a PDF with just the sections they need.

How do I avoid going over budget?

The budget chart shows spent, committed, and remaining at a glance, so an overrun shows up while there's still time to act. Add the Home Screen or Lock Screen widget to keep the budget ring in view without opening the app.

Is my project data backed up?

Yes — with iCloud sync on, your projects live in your iCloud account and follow you to a new iPhone. Everything also works fully offline; changes sync when you're back online.
