# The App — Collector Tools

The sandbox layer: tools that live above every page and turn browsing into working. All of them are free, most of them are a swipe away, and none of them touch the chain until you do.

- **①&#xFE0E; PINGS** — the inbox. Scrolling the list is what marks pings read; long-press a row to quiet its source.
- **②&#xFE0E; NOTES** — your private marginalia, owner-only forever.
- **③&#xFE0E; TO-DOS** — + composes (it parses plain language), ☇ opens Workflows; **press and hold the header** and the whole [PriceOS Suite](/docs/suite) opens.
- **④&#xFE0E; MY PD** — the settings surface; its own map is on [Settings & Display](/docs/app/settings-and-display).

## To-Dos ❍

**How:** Open the connect menu's To-Dos panel — + composes a to-do, ☇ opens Workflows.

The collector's task list, PD-flavored: items can carry **ETH targets and budgets** (◊), building a war-chest meter toward a goal. Completed items flip ❍ → ✓, strike through, and sink. Reminders surface as toasts; the **Workflows** ☇ system automates recurring sequences on top.

**The Sentinel watches even when you don't.** A BUY to-do with a ◊ target — and any armed price or upload Workflow — is evaluated **server-side every minute** against live listings and fresh uploads. The moment a trigger crosses, you get a real Ping and a native lock-screen push, app open or closed. Each trigger fires exactly once; retarget it and it re-arms. In the app, a hit target also flips its row to **READY** and floats it to the top.

## Notes ⊟

Private per-Output annotations — owner-only, forever. The collector's marginalia: why you bought it, what you'd pay for its sibling, what the artist said about it.

## The Cart ▢

A staging area for Outputs you're circling. The Cart holds intent — assembling a session's candidates in one place before any of them becomes a transaction.

**It tells you what changed while you were deciding.** A cart is somewhere Outputs sit for a while, and the market doesn't wait. Each row carries what has moved since *you* put it there:

- **SOLD** — somebody else bought it. The only red on the row, because it's the only one that cost you something.
- **PRICE MOVED** — with the price you originally saw, so you can judge the new one.
- **OFFERS IN** — bids standing against the Output, with the best of them.

The cart mark in the navbar turns red when anything on the list has changed, and a change also reaches you as a [Ping](/docs/pings/overview) so you don't have to keep opening it. The baseline is the price **this device** first saw, held on the device itself.

**The Haul.** Finishing a buy doesn't dump you out of the cart — it prints a receipt: what you bought, and what else that artist has listed, each one a tap to add. Follow the artist from the same card, or **save the receipt as a picture** through the same share sheet as the Rarity Receipt. Nothing you do on it closes it.

## The Bench

**How:** Drag an Output onto it — the Bench docks at the bottom and holds the set.

The comparison tray: **drag Outputs onto it** to hold them side by side while you keep browsing. The Bench is deliberately drag-only — it docks at the bottom of the screen and holds its set until you clear it.

## The Calc

A pricing scratchpad in a sheet — quick math on editions, targets, and splits without leaving the page you're on.

## The Calendar ▦

The platform's temporal surface: what minted when, what's minting, and your own marks on the timeline.

## The Anchor ♆

Your own reference price, per collection: set the number a Project's prices should be read against, and surfaces that price against it. An anchor is a private opinion the interface respects.

## Portfolio

**How:** Open your profile's Portfolio tab.

The full holdings view: everything the wallet owns with the market layer on — and **The Shadow** (◐), its paper-trading twin, for the positions you didn't take.

## The Watch ⬬

Per-page watchlists — items you're actively monitoring, with **watch hits** routed into your [Pings](/docs/pings/overview).

## Global search

One field, the whole platform: Projects, Outputs, artists, collectors, @names.

## Workspaces

**How:** Switch personas from settings — one tap swaps the whole arrangement.

Whole tool arrangements — every mode, spell, and setting — saved as one-tap personas (Curator, Scout, Trader, Oracle, Socialite, Insider, Degen, DJ…) and switchable from settings. They ride Setup Codes, so a workspace is also shareable. See [Settings & Display](/docs/app/settings-and-display).

## The PD miniplayer ♫

**How:** Play any soundtrack — the miniplayer appears on the bottom band while music plays.

Play any soundtrack — a project page's SOUNDTRACK button, an Output's ♫ key,
your Starred Soundtracks, a pinned soundtrack in the top bar — and the PD
miniplayer appears on the bottom band: a compact deck with the real video as
a tiny album-art window, the track readout, and transport keys. It exists
only while music is playing; close it and it's gone completely. Navigation
never interrupts the audio.

- **Five faces.** The ⎇ MODE key cycles the deck through five looks, from
  the full deck to a bare signal chip — the key rides every face and
  switches instantly.
- **The station picker.** Tap the screen to change stations: your starred
  soundtracks first, then every album on the platform.
- **Honest tuning.** A station that can't be reached says DEAD LINK within
  seconds instead of spinning; broken tracks skip themselves.

## PD Wrapped

**How:** Summon `wrapped` in the Command Stone.

Your collecting story, on demand: summon `wrapped` (or `recap`, or
`wrapped 90d` for a custom window) in the Command Stone and PD plays back
your period — Outputs in and out, net ◊ flow, your biggest realized flip,
your best floor call, and your top counterparty.

## Lists ≡

Your own **named groupings** of anything you've starred — artworks, projects,
traits, artists, soundtracks, transactions. Private, priced, and reorderable.
They have their own page: **[Lists](/docs/lists)**.
