The shoot day, block by block.
Build the day as a timeline — setup, scenes, lunch, company move. Drag blocks around as plans change. The crew follows along live and the schedule syncs to everyone's calendar.
- Timeline blocks for the whole day
- Live for the entire crew
- Auto-sync to iOS calendar
Tag the good takes on set. Find them in the edit.
Run a marker session right from your Lock Screen while you roll — good take, bad take, moment, note. Every marker is timecode-stamped and synced across your crew. After wrap, export as EDL, CSV or FCPXML and the markers land on your timeline in Resolve, Premiere or Final Cut.
- Four marker buttons on your Lock Screen
- Timecoded, synced across the crew
- EDL, CSV & FCPXML export
Lend your gear Actually get it back.
Track who has your gear, when it's due, and what they owe you. The Digital Handshake acceptance flow makes sure both sides agree before gear leaves your hands.
- Digital Handshake acceptance flow
- Per-item pricing & deposits
- Payment status tracking
- Incoming rentals from rental houses
No signal? No problem.
GearBuddy keeps working offline. On a remote location shoot with no cell service? Your gear, lists and schedule stay available. Changes sync automatically when you're back online.

Share your kit, keep control.
Let DPs, gaffers, and ACs see what you own — without giving away the keys. Set visibility per person: private, view-only, or full access.

It speaks up before it's too late.

Know the conditions before you load the car.
Weather forecast, golden hour, travel time from your hub, and a drone-airspace check for shoot locations in Germany — all on the shoot, automatically.
- Weather & packing insights
- Golden hour & sunset times
- Travel time from your hub
See the airspace before you take off.
Every restricted and no-fly zone in German airspace, drawn on a map of your shoot location. Pick the drone you're flying and the licence you hold, and GearBuddy flags whether you're likely clear, need a permit, or shouldn't fly — plus who to call. A heads-up for set, not a clearance: the official sources always have the final word.
- No-fly & restricted zones on a map
- Verdict for your drone & licence class
- One-tap contact for the local authority
- Keep your drone licence in the app
