"Wait, do I already have this pin?"
Pins, acrylic stands, photocards, plushies. Take one photo and note the piece and where it lives. In the three seconds you get in the merch line, you know if you have it, where it is and which one you're still missing.
Three seconds at the merch table
Ask your forest first, then decide if it comes home.
Blind boxes, restocks, trading tables. When there's no time to scroll your camera roll or old orders, search a name, a character or a tag. The photo, the count and where it's stored come up together.

- On display Desk › Display shelf › Top
- For trade Bedroom › Bookcase › Binder B · p. 3
You already have two, and one is marked for trade. No need to pull again.
This one isn't in your forest yet, so take it home with a clear conscience. Anything you want but haven't found yet can wait in a basket's Wish List.
- Kept safe Bedroom › Bookcase › Card binder A
Only No. 4 is missing. When you trade, that's the one card to look for.

Saturday's live show
Who goes in the itabag today? Check them off, leave no one behind.
Make a basket for the outing. Add the stands, the pins and the light stick. The basket remembers where each one usually lives.
Back home, clear the checklist and it's ready for next time. Where everything is stored stays exactly the same.
Every time you unlock your phone
Your oshi lives on your Home Screen.
The Today's Treasure widget can show just one tag. Set it to #Hoshino, and the first thing you see each day is one of their pieces.
That night
E-tickets leave no stub, so make your own.
Put the silver confetti, the sea of light sticks and the e-ticket screenshot in the Treasure Box, then lay them out as a keepsake ticket in a Memory Book. Export it as an image or PDF, print it and stick it in your journal.
- Portrait 4:5, square, A5 and more
- Washi, kraft, midnight moon and other papers
- Export PNG, or the whole book as PDF from Plus
A few extra touches for collectors
- Up to 5 pieces per photo Lay out a row of pins and take one photo. AI helps tell them apart and removes the background. You can edit names and categories before saving.
- Many of the same, in batches Several copies of one pin can be split into on display, kept safe and for trade, each with its own count and place.
- Yen prices, kept as yen Merch bought from Japan can be logged in JPY. Turn on Convert Currency in the price filter to convert to your default currency.
- Filter by series, character, type Give "Pins" or "Stands" your own fields, like character, size or wave, and filter by them later.

Before you start
Collections are personal. A few things up front.

- Free starts you with 30 items The free plan holds up to 30 in-stock items in total (counted by quantity), with a limit of 3 groves and 10 locations, and your data stays on this device. When the collection grows, Plus has no item limit and syncs between iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Questions
Things you may want to know first.
I already own a lot of merch. Do I have to add it all at once?
No. Start with your oshi (the member or character you love most), one series or one storage box, or only log what you buy from now on. MononoMori won't rush you. Your collection can grow into a forest at its own pace.
How do I log duplicates from blind boxes?
Use the Batch Manager. One piece can be split into on display, kept safe and for trade, each batch with its own count, status and place. The total adds up on its own.
What if AI gets the name wrong?
AI only suggests. You check and edit the name, category and everything else before saving. Fandom details like character names or wave numbers are best written your own way.
Can I log merch I haven't bought yet?
Yes. Put it in a basket's Wish List. The pieces you want and the ones you're missing sit together, easy to check at the venue or a trade.
Can I make a widget just for my oshi?
Yes. The Today's Treasure widget can show everything, one category or one tag. Give your oshi's pieces the same tag, and the widget shows only them.
Are my photos and collection public?
No. Your records stay on your device by default, or in your own iCloud if you turn on sync. For AI identification, a compressed photo is uploaded to be recognized. See the privacy policy for details.

The more you love, the more you can keep track of.
