HomeOps

Your warranties deserve better than a shoebox.

HomeOps is a modern iOS app that helps you track product warranties, manage receipts, and never miss an expiration date again. Built with SwiftUI and SwiftData, it brings enterprise-level organization to your home inventory.

Why HomeOps?

Ever bought something expensive, carefully filed the receipt away, then completely forgot about it when you actually needed warranty service? We've all been there. HomeOps solves this by turning receipt chaos into organized, actionable data.

The problem: Most people lose money every year on expired warranties they forgot about, or waste time hunting for receipts when something breaks.

The solution: Smart warranty tracking that actually works. Snap a photo of your receipt, and HomeOps handles the rest—from OCR extraction to expiration reminders.

Tech Stack

  • UI Framework: SwiftUI with custom design system
  • Data Persistence: SwiftData (iOS 17+)
  • OCR: VisionKit's DataScannerViewController
  • Charts: Swift Charts (iOS 16+)
  • Notifications: UserNotifications framework
  • Export: PDFKit + custom CSV generator

Key Technologies

SwiftData - Apple's modern data framework replaces Core Data with a cleaner, type-safe API. All data is stored locally with optional iCloud sync.

VisionKit - Powers the receipt scanner. Uses on-device ML to extract text with impressive accuracy—no server calls, no privacy concerns.

Swift Charts - Native charting framework for beautiful, accessible visualizations in the analytics dashboard.

Design Philosophy

User-First

Every feature solves a real problem. No feature bloat, no dark patterns, no subscription traps.

Privacy-First

All OCR processing happens on-device. Your receipts never leave your phone. iCloud sync is optional and encrypted end-to-end.

Performance-First

Lazy loading, image optimization, and efficient queries mean the app stays fast even with 1000+ items.

Accessibility-First

Full VoiceOver support, Dynamic Type, high contrast mode—everyone deserves great software.

FAQ

Q: Why no Android version?
A: HomeOps uses cutting-edge iOS-only frameworks like SwiftData and VisionKit. These don't exist on Android, and half-baked cross-platform alternatives would compromise the experience.

Q: Will there be a subscription?
A: No. One-time purchase for premium features, that's it. Your data shouldn't be held hostage by a monthly fee.

Q: Can I trust the OCR?
A: The app lets you review and edit all scanned data before saving. OCR is a helper, not a replacement for human verification.

Q: Where is my data stored?
A: Locally in your device's SwiftData database. If you enable iCloud sync (coming soon), it's encrypted end-to-end in your private iCloud storage.
