Creating Your First Collection

How to create your very first collection in Owlect.

Create your first collection

After you sign in, you will see your dashboard. It will be empty at first — that's okay! Let's create your first collection.

1Tap the "New Collection" button

2Pick a type — Choose what you collect. For example, "Dolls", "Board Games", or "Coins". If your collection does not fit any type, choose "Custom"

3Give it a name — Something like "My Doll Collection" or "Family Board Games"

4Tap "Create"

The collection type tells Owlect what kind of items you are tracking. This is helpful because:

Owlect can suggest ready-made fields for your type (like "Artist" for music or "Number of Players" for board games)

For many types, Owlect can find information automatically when you add items

Your collection gets a nice icon that matches the type

The type is set when you create the collection and cannot be changed later. But you can always create a new collection with a different type!

Now that you have a collection, it's time to add your first item! Check out the "Adding Items" article to learn how.
