Claude Turned Her Spreadsheet into a Mobile App
PhoenixorFlame · reddit · 2026-07-11
The author had long used Google Sheets to log and search her nail polishes, nail plates, and manicure tools, but the mobile experience was poor, and existing apps were either inadequate or too expensive.
After asking Claude, it proposed and helped build an HTML mobile app. After multiple iterations and debugging, the author now has two apps—one for nail polishes and one for nail plates—both syncing with online spreadsheets.
Features
- Easy mobile browsing and searching of collections
- Preserved images, notes, and tracking data from the original spreadsheets
- Added pages for random inspiration and statistics
Author's Thoughts
She emphasizes that this wouldn't have been easy without her well-organized data and formulas. Still, Claude made migrating from a "massive, clunky spreadsheet" to a "usable mobile app" incredibly simple.
