And every little detail. Shopfront Lens collections help you organise saved items on your phone. Keep photos, notes, measurements and price checks with each piece, then group items in a way that makes sense to you. Make a wardrobe reference, remember a weekend’s finds or organise the next batch of donations. Native app for iOS and Android. Currently in private beta. Beta app preview. Example items, prices and measurements. ## How do you organise items in Lens? 1. **Keep the item** Save an item with its photos and useful details. Add notes while the piece is in front of you, such as where you found it or what needs a closer look. You can add price checks and measurement photos when they help. 2. **Give it a place** Create a collection around the way you work: wardrobe staples, weekend finds or a donation batch. Group the relevant items together so the next time you open Lens, you have a smaller set of pieces to work through. 3. **Come back with context** Open a saved item to revisit its photos, notes, measurements and price checks. Keep using it as a personal reference, or send selected items to Shopfront as listing drafts when you are ready to prepare them for sale. ## Less to remember. More to come back to. A photo alone does not always tell the whole story. The jacket might need a button, the jeans might have a useful flat waist measurement, or the tote might be part of a donation drop. Keeping notes and dimensions beside the item helps you pick up where you left off. Use collections that reflect your own routine. You do not need a shop or a plan to sell every piece. A collection can be a record of things you already own, a group of finds you are considering or a batch you want to sort later. ## Ready to sell? Start with a draft. The native app can send selected items to Shopfront as listing drafts, including their photos and saved measurement images. Review the draft’s details in Shopfront before publishing. Saving an item in Lens or putting it in a collection does not publish a marketplace listing. Items and collections are saved on your device. They are not automatically backed up or shared across phones. You can separately send selected items to Shopfront as listing drafts. ## For your kind of finding ### Organise a wardrobe Group favourite pieces and keep their measurements close. Revisit the collection when comparing a potential purchase or deciding what to pass on. ### Remember a day’s finds Keep photos and notes from a thrifting trip together. Return to the items you want to research instead of searching your entire camera roll. ### Work through a donation batch Capture the details while sorting a group of donations. Keep that batch together on the capture device and prepare selected items for listing later. ## Questions ### Do I have to sell the items I save? No. Collections work as a personal reference for wardrobe pieces, thrift finds and donations. Sending an item to Shopfront as a draft is optional. ### What can I keep with a saved item?

You can separately send selected items to Shopfront as listing drafts. ### Does sending an item to Shopfront publish it?
