Paintings · Artists · Museums · Countries · Deeper insights with Seen Pro
A life-list for art. Instead of counting countries, you're building a life-list of masterworks — Vermeers at the Rijksmuseum, Caravaggios in Rome, the Goya that made you stop walking. Every painting you mark becomes part of your own collection, remembered and counted forever.
Your year in paintings, ready to post.
Pick a style, then share. More styles with Seen Pro.
Every share button previews your card first, and the Wall Label style is always free. Share sends a 1080 × 1920 PNG for Stories to the share sheet. Nothing is uploaded.
SEEN PRO
Seen Pro, a one-time purchase with no subscription, adds Insights (your collection by century, movement, artist and place), every medal beyond your Passport stamps and visas, unlimited favorites and the Poster and Album share styles; everything else stays free.

PRIVACY BY CONSTRUCTION
Seen has no backend, no account, no analytics, no tracking, and no advertising. Your seen-list, favorites and visit history live only on your device. Your location is read only when you ask for it, tapping "Near me" or the locate button on the museum map, and it never leaves your phone. The only network requests Seen makes are to load painting images from public museum servers, plus Apple's own App Store traffic for the optional purchase above — Seen's own code never sees your payment details.
BUILT FOR IOS
Native SwiftUI and SwiftData. Zero third-party SDKs. Painting metadata is bundled, so browsing, searching and marking work without a connection; only the images need one. Dark-paper editorial design with serif typography that reads like a monograph, not a dashboard.
