FAQ
Common questions
What kind of apps does JWApps make?
Two kinds. On the App Store there are polished iOS apps — MyFinCalc and MyFinPic for personal finance, plus Bibliocapsa, a book scanner and catalog. And there are self-hosted, open-source apps you run on your own hardware — Colloqui (team & family chat), Progenies (genealogy & family trees), and Bibliocapsa's companion library server.
What does "self-hosted" mean?
It means you run the app on your own server, NAS, or home machine (via Docker) instead of a company's cloud. Your data lives with you — nothing is mined, sold, or held behind a login you don't control — and there are no subscriptions for the software itself.
Is Colloqui a self-hosted alternative to Slack?
Yes. Colloqui covers the same ground as hosted team-chat tools like Slack or Discord — spaces, channels, DMs, threads, reactions, and mentions — but it runs entirely on hardware you control, with no third-party services and no phone-home. Learn more about Colloqui →
Does Bibliocapsa work with Calibre and KOReader?
It's built for both. Bibliocapsa sits on top of your existing Calibre library (read-only by default, so it never alters it) and unifies your ebooks with your physical books. It also ships the most complete KOReader integration available — OPDS catalog, reading-position sync, and statistics sync, all built in.
Can I import my existing family tree into Progenies?
Yes. Progenies imports and exports GEDCOM 5.5, the standard genealogy format, so you can bring in data from Ancestry, FamilySearch, or another tool — and export it back out anytime. It's a self-hosted progressive web app, so your family history stays on your own hardware.
Are the iOS apps free, and do they collect my data?
MyFinCalc and MyFinPic are free to download. Anything you enter is stored on your device and isn't uploaded to JWApps servers. MyFinCalc shows ads and offers an optional one-time Pro unlock; neither app requires a subscription.
How do I sign in to Colloqui — do I need a password?
Your choice. Colloqui supports modern passkeys (WebAuthn) over HTTPS, or a classic username and password — useful on a bare LAN where passkeys aren't available. The first account you register on a new instance becomes the admin.
