Oh thanks for the heads up! I have localized the website to Catalan and I will probably do that too for the app. As far as I can see there are a lot of cat strays in Catalonia too!

For example: You need five distinct photos of a cat before the app will guess its age, which is also just what the model needs, since age settles at about five samples. You get XP for finding new cats, and also for shooting from a distance: the score rises with how far back you stood, so using the 3× is the legitimate way to earn it and walking up to the animal isn't.
Card designs unlock per cat, as your relationship with it deepens and there are five card designs across five cat levels.
Trading exchanges cards, not cats as the animals never leave your collection. Because a card carries the fingerprint of the photo on it, it doubles as a treasure map: find that cat in the wild yourself and the app tells you it's the one from the person you traded with.
Didn't want to overcomplicate it (it's a side-project), so there's no server and no global fingerprint registry which means no race to find a cat first. It's built around building a relationship with the cats, and hopefully finding them a forever home.
Lots of strays where I live, so I wanted an app to photograph and identify street cats and help get them adopted. Written mostly with Claude.
The recognition runs on device: Apple Vision detects the cat, DINOv2-Small decides whether it's one already in your library, SigLIP2 names the coat.
No accounts and no backend. There's a trading mechanic on top where you can trade cards via Wi-Fi (with Bluetooth as a fallback) and levels for both the user and each cat.
You can also turn any cat into a shareable adoption poster.
TestFlight is open, so feel free to try it.
How many files have you tried to add and how big were they?
If that doesn't stop after a while, consider restarting Hearth app.
Regarding the Finder integration, if neither the context menu item to be shown nor the Hearth toolbar button then make sure the Hearth Finder extension is enabled (Visit the System Preferences > Extensions > Finder and enable Hearth) and the restart Finder by option+right clicking the Finder icon in your Dock and selecting 'Relaunch'.
Hope that helps!
Linkpack does not collect all of your links and sends them to our servers. Only after tapping the share button in a particular folder, and only then, it makes a request to Dropbox API to collect just the links of this particular folder, in order to generate the page that you can share with your friends.
Right now there a $1.99 IAP that enables extra functionality such as Reading Progress, Narration and more but -as we are in a really early stage- this might change in the future, depending on the features that will be implemented.
I will update the website soon to add a form for the newsletter there as well.
Here are 6 promo codes for you so you can get Horizon for free!
The TechCrunch post you are linking to was posted back on our initial launch at January 14th. This video was shot with the first version of Horizon that didn't feature any stabilization. Moreover, our straightening algorithm has improved a lot since back then (6 months ago). Plus we are always working on updates to improve it even further!
Concerning the price, Horizon was always $1.99 but had a -50% off launch sale in the first month of its release.
The 2.0 update is a free update for all our of existing users!
So, if you put the iPhone on the outer part of the wheel you will most probably get a horizontal video that will end up showing your scene moving up-down, left-right.
