Musento is Letterboxd for museums. Find a museum, log the visit with a date and an optional private note, and it joins your personal collection: points, achievements, and a history you can look back on years later. Built solo in SwiftUI.

## Log a visit, keep a diary

Every visit is a small record: which museum, which date, and what you thought of it. The date picker reaches back decades, so a lifetime of museum trips can be entered retroactively, not just the ones from after installing the app. Notes are private by default — visible only to you, never shown to friends or on any leaderboard — while the visit itself, the points it earned, and the achievements it unlocks become part of a public collection friends can see.

## An extensive museum catalogue

Rather than maintain a hand-curated list, Musento builds its museum catalogue from [Wikidata](https://www.wikidata.org/), covering a huge range of institutions worldwide, searchable by name or city and browsable by what’s nearby. Location is optional and used only to answer “what’s near me” — it’s sent for that one request and never stored, and the app never tracks location in the background. Search works fine without granting it at all.

## Points, achievements, and friends

Visits earn points and unlock achievements, and friends whose requests you’ve accepted can see your collection alongside their own. Global leaderboards rank handles and scores, turning a solitary hobby into something a little competitive. None of it depends on ads or trackers: points and standings have no monetary value, and the app doesn’t sell data to anyone.

## Private by design

Sign in with Apple or email, with your data protected behind row-level access controls so one member can never read another’s private data. Deleting an account from Settings removes the profile, visits, notes, friendships, and achievements immediately and irreversibly.
