Offline-first · iPhone & iPad
Inventory, craft costing, and event POS — on your device.

How BeaverDrop helps you
Whether you sell at markets, post drops online, or price small batches — you need stock, costs, and checkout in one place. BeaverDrop keeps core data on device; it does not replace your accountant or payment processor.
Price crafts with confidence
Build bills of materials, labour, and margin so your sticker price reflects real costs — not guesses.
Ring sales at the event
POS with large tiles, cart, tax lines, and receipt PDFs you can share. Card payments still go through your own terminal or app — BeaverDrop records the sale.
Own your data
Offline-first storage, exports, and backup-friendly flows — so a broken phone is not the end of your season.
Features
What the app includes today: three modules that share the same tax and currency settings, plus exports. Not included: cloud sync between devices, hosted storefronts, or filing taxes for you.
Inventory & drops
SKUs, categories, images, flexible tax, and social-ready captions you can copy in one tap.
Barcode
Low stock
Craft costing
Materials library, BOM lines, labour and overhead — see margin before you post a price.
Quotes
PDF
Event POS
Events link inventory (or event-only SKUs), cart, discounts, and payment notes. Receipt PDFs, sales history, and period summaries you can export for spreadsheets.
Receipt PDF
Sales export
Currency & tax
App-wide defaults with overrides per item or event — built for messy real-world rules.
Export & backup
Inventory and craft CSVs for spreadsheets; full .beaverbackup export and import for restore. Optional auto-export after changes (see Backup section).
iPhone & iPad
Adaptive layouts: fast flows on phone, more room for grids and carts on tablet.
Example: weekend market
One way to use the three modules together — not a guarantee of how you’ll work, but a concrete story.
Monday–Tuesday — catalog & drop
You add or update inventory (photos, SKUs, prices, tax), assign items to a named drop for this weekend’s fair, and copy a social caption when you post a preview online.
Wednesday — price a new batch
In Craft, you build a bill of materials for a tote run: materials, labour, margin — then export a quote PDF if a wholesale buyer asks.
Saturday — sell at the stall
In POS, you open your event, ring items from inventory (or event SKUs), take cash or note an external card payment, and send a receipt PDF. Completed sales reduce stock on linked inventory lines.
Sunday night — records
You export a .beaverbackup through Share (save to Files or cloud), or turn on auto-export so the app keeps the latest bundle on-device before Monday’s bookkeeping.
Sample data in the app (marked “Demo”) is only for learning — remove it from Settings when you go live.

How it works
Three beats — same as your weekend: plan, make, sell.
-
1
Load your catalog
Add items, photos, and tax rules. Group drops for the next pop-up or online release.
-
2
Cost what you make
Build BOMs for batches, set labour, and generate quotes or invoices when someone asks.
-
3
Sell & reconcile
Run POS at the event; linked inventory quantities update from completed sales. Export CSV or backup when you need records outside the app.
Backup & exports
Straight from what Settings provides: full bundle restore, CSV for spreadsheets, and optional auto-export — not cloud sync between phones.
Full backup (.beaverbackup)
Export and Import from Settings → Backup & CSV. Import shows a validation summary before replacing data on this device.
- The bundle is designed to restore business state including tax presets, inventory (with images as implemented), drops, craft projects, POS events and sales — more complete than CSV alone.
- Use for new device setup or after reinstall; keep a copy somewhere you control.
CSV exports
Inventory CSV and craft/material CSV flows exist for spreadsheet workflows. CSV does not necessarily restore every relation or image — the app explains limits in Settings (“CSV vs full backup”).
- Good for accountants, filters, and one-off edits — not a substitute for a full backup file.
Auto-export backup
Optional in Settings → Auto-export backup. When enabled, debounced writes after changes to a fixed file inside the app’s on-device storage (same relative path shown in Settings):
- Documents/BeaverDropAutoExport/beaverbackup.beaverbackup
If writing fails, you get a visible error with a chance to retry; manual export in Settings remains the fallback.
Where files go
No hosted BeaverDrop account. You save exports through the system share sheet to Files, iCloud Drive, AirDrop, or mail — same as other iOS apps.
Tax, invoice validity, and compliance depend on your region and how you configure fields — the app includes a disclaimer; it does not provide legal or tax advice.

FAQ
Quick answers — full detail in Help center.
Does BeaverDrop need an account?
No cloud account is required for core offline workflows. Your data stays on device unless you export or enable optional file destinations.
Is BeaverDrop only for India / one currency?
You can configure region, currency context, and tax presets for your workflows — not locked to a single country model.
Can I get my data out?
Yes. Export inventory and craft CSVs from the app where available, and use .beaverbackup export/import for a full restore path. See Backup & exports above.
Does deleting a drop delete my inventory?
Deleting a drop removes the drop and clears assignments from items — inventory items remain in your catalog.
Who is responsible for tax compliance?
BeaverDrop provides tools and exports; legal compliance remains your responsibility — see in-app trust and legal copy.
