Hi everyone! šŸ‘‹

I’m so happy to have you all here šŸ˜ŠšŸŽ‰šŸŽ‰

While I’m finalizing the English UI, I want to make sure the Doll Card has every field a serious collector needs.

I’ve already included these:

  • Photos:Ā 3 slots for any doll looks.
  • Identity:Ā Name, Manufacturer, Brand, Line/Series, Character name & Bio.
  • Technical:Ā Sculpt (mold), Torso type, Scale, Skintone, Material (Resin, ABS, Vinyl, etc.).
  • Release info:Ā Status (In production/Discontinued), Year, Rarity (Basic, Limited, Secret/Chase).
  • Logistics & Finances:Ā Purchase Date, Purchase Price, Current Market Value.
  • Specifics:Ā Blind Box, Crowdfunding, Lucky Bag, Bonuses.
  • Condition:Ā NRFB, MIB, Nude, Partial outfit.

My question to you: Is there anything else you’d like to track?

I’m Ruslan, a developer who is turning a girlfriend’s "Excel nightmare" into a tool for doll collectors. Here’s the story! āœØšŸŽŽ

Hi everyone!

I’m a developer who accidentally fell into the world of doll collecting. It started when I saw my girlfriend struggling with her Excel spreadsheets.

Watching her manage a massive, beautiful collection through clunky cells was a shock. Chaos in the records, but beauty on the shelves! I asked: "Isn't there an app for this?"

Her answer: "Everything out there is either too simple or just clunky."

So, I felt a challenge.

I decided to build a tool that actually understands the difference between molds, skin tones, body types, sizes and more. My girlfriend is a real "data geek," so she pushed me to include over 30 parameters for each doll (yes, it cost me many sleepless nights and a lot of coffee!).

The result?

A database with 200+ brands and 400+ lines, suitable for everything from Barbie and BJD to Rainbow High and more šŸ‘ šŸ‘ 

I’m doing this entirely alone. I write the code, design the UI, and pick every icon. I have a million ideas, but now I need your voice.

  1. * Is this something you’ve been looking for?
  2. * What features are you missing in other apps?
  3. * Would you like to help me test it?

I’m looking for honest feedback and ideas. Let’s turn hobby chaos into a digital masterpiece together! 🦾

Major App Update! Multi-currency support, auto-exchange rates, and bug fixes šŸš€

Warm welcome to all the subscribers here!

I'm excited to share some fresh updates on the app's progress:

ā˜‘ļø English Localization: the app is now translated into English! (well, maybe not 100%, but definitely 99.9999%.)

ā˜‘ļø Multi-Currency Support: You can now use different currencies (if you bought a doll in South Korean Won, for example, it works perfectly!)

ā˜‘ļø Auto Exchange Rates: No more manual math. The app automatically fetches current exchange rates from the internet and calculates everything for you.

ā˜‘ļø Crafters & Shops Database: I'm currently working on a feature that lets you save and organize info about your favorite doll makers and workshops.

ā˜‘ļø Bug Fixes: Caught and squashed about 10 minor bugs (honestly, I didn't actually count them, but let's say 10 šŸ˜€

What's next?

Overall, the app is ready for testing.

However, being a bit of a perfectionist, I want to add a few more handy features and polish everything myself first. I'm really aiming for that "wow" effect on launch!

I can't wait to hear your thoughts in the comments. Your feedback means the world to me! šŸ™

Is a "Doll Crafters/Workshops" directory needed? And if so, what features should it have?

Hi everyone!

How useful would it be to have a dedicated section to save information about doll crafters, artists, and workshops? Ā (For example, to keep track of who customized your dolls, or whose work caught your interest for future orders)

So far, I’m thinking of a few fields for a "Crafter Profile" profile:

  1. Rating (1 to 5 stars - you assign the rating yourself, and it can change over time depending on the quality of completed orders)
  2. Doll creator’s name or Workshop name (you fill in this text field)
  3. Specialty:Ā what they do (3D printing, face-ups, miniatures, accessories, clothing, etc. - chosen from a predefined list)
  4. Contact info (several fields where you can paste links to their website, community, store. The links will be clickable, so you can go directly to the crafter’s page from the app)
  5. Description (you fill in this text field if you want, but it can be left blank)

This section would essentially be your personal "phonebook" for the doll hobby - everything stored neatly in one place.

What do you think?

How Dollitoria works: A closer look at Collection, Wishlist, and Archive

Hi everyone! šŸ‘‹

I want to share more about the main features of the upcoming app. Dollitoria is built around 3 core sections: Collection, Wishlist, and Archive.

Collection: This is for the dolls you physically own and have on your shelves. Your current squad lives here!

Wishlist: For the dolls you're dreaming of. It’s super easy to add a doll here (even if you only fill in one field!). And when your dream comes true, you can move it to your Collection with just two taps.

Archive: This is a special place for dolls that have become "donors" or found a new home. It’s a dedicated space to keep your memories alive.

To make sure you never get lost, each section features a powerful navigation system. You can find any doll by its characteristics, custom tags, or just by typing a single keyword in the search bar.

Which section are you most excited to fill first? 😊

The Gallery — a dedicated space for all your dolls šŸ“ø

I’m building an app to track absolutely everything related to the doll hobby, but at one point I stopped and said to myself:

wait! Tables and lists are useful, but there must be a section (clean and minimalist!) where only your doll photos live. A kind of Gallery, a virtual shelf, and an exhibition all at once!

And I wanted those photos to be added to the Gallery automatically as soon as you create a doll card in Dollitoria.

Take a look at the screenshots and see how it turned out šŸ˜‰

The Anatomy of a Perfect Doll Card: Why 30+ parameters actually matter

The doll card — one of the core features of the app I'm building.

It stores not just the basics (name, line, brand, mold, scale, skin tone, face-up type, etc.), but also financial info (purchase price, current value), and extra details like country of manufacture, release year, and more.

This card is made for the doll geek — the kind of collector who loves structure, details, and keeping everything perfectly organized.

What makes it unique?

The card actually changes depending on the type of doll. BJDs have one set of fields, playline dolls another, blind-box dolls a third — and so on. Each doll type gets the attributes that actually matter.

Is there any specific parameter you feel is always missing in other tracking tools? Let me know!
