OnceClay - Ceramics Notebook

I’ve only been using OnceClay for a few days, but I’m really enjoying it so far. It’s been super helpful for keeping notes on my pottery, and I love having a quick place to save ideas and inspiration. The Feed tab is also such a nice touch. I love being able to share my work and see what others are making

I really have been enjoying this app. I’ve used a handful of others to try to track my pots. After losing all my data on some or tricky systems to log each stage on other apps, I’ve finally found the one! I highly recommend Once Clay. It’s so easy to bump pieces to the next stage and it doesn’t require you to add ALL the notes but you can choose what you want to add. I appreciate that.

I tested this app to document my ceramics work, and I honestly love it. It makes it so easy to track every stage of a piece — from clay body and slip to glaze layers and firing details. Seeing everything visualized and organized in one place is incredibly helpful. It’s exactly what I needed to systematically improve my work and recreate successful pieces later. The only thing I’d love to see improved is the glaze/material input. Right now, you have to manually enter the brand and product name, which can get a bit tedious. It would be amazing to have a built-in materials library, or even a feature where you can snap a photo and automatically recognize popular glaze brands and products. That would make building a personal materials database so much smoother and less time-consuming. Overall, such a thoughtful and well-designed app.
