How to Use PepShare: A Step-by-Step Getting Started Guide

PepShare is a simple tracker for research peptides. It keeps your vials, pins and logs in one place, for you and anyone else you keep track of. It only stores what you type in. It never suggests amounts, protocols or compounds.

This guide walks you through the basics, from your first vial to sharing a schedule. It takes about five minutes.

Free vs. PepShare+: Free is one vial and one person, free forever. It's not a trial. PepShare+ unlocks the rest. Steps marked (PepShare+) are part of it.

Step 1: Open the app (no account needed)

Download PepShare and open it. There's no sign-up, email or password. You'll see a short welcome screen, then the Today tab.

Your data lives on your iPhone. Nothing is sent to us, and you don't have to create a profile to get started.

At the bottom you'll find the main tabs: Today, Vials and Log. Settings holds people, import and export, Apple Health and printer options.

Step 2: Add your first vial

Go to the Vials tab and tap Add.

  1. Pick or type the peptide name.
  2. Type in the values printed on your vial label, exactly as they appear.
  3. Add any notes you want to keep, like where you got it or a lot number.
  4. Tap Save.

PepShare saves what you entered and shows the vial in your list, so you can see what's open, what's left and what's still in stock. You can also use Add stock to record unopened vials you have on hand.

When a vial is finished, tap Archive vial to move it out of your active list. On the Free plan you can have one active vial at a time. (PepShare+ for more vials.)

Step 3: Log a pin

When you've filled a pin, tap Log from this vial on the vial, or use the Log button on the Today tab.

  1. Choose who it's for (that's you, to start).
  2. Type in the value you want to record.
  3. Optionally pick a site.
  4. Tap Log.

Filled pins can wait on their vial until you log them, which helps if you prep ahead. Everything you log shows up in the Log tab, with the time and the person, so you have a clear history to look back on.

Step 4: Add people and their reminders (PepShare+)

This is where PepShare really helps if you keep track for a partner, family member or friend.

  1. Open Settings › People and add a person. Give them a name and a color.
  2. Tap Add schedule (or Schedule for someone from Today) and set how often: Daily, Weekly or a Cycle (days on, days off).
  3. Turn on notifications so each person's reminders show up on time.

Each person gets their own color, their own log and their own reminders. The Today tab shows what's next for everyone, so nobody's schedule gets mixed up with someone else's.

Step 5: Print labels with a Niimbot printer (PepShare+)

Mixed-up vials are a common headache. PepShare can print small labels for your vials and pins on a Niimbot label printer.

  1. Open a vial and tap Print vial label, or choose Print pins for pin labels.
  2. Tap Find printer automatically, and hold the printer close to your phone if it's slow to show up.
  3. Check the preview, add names if you want them on the label, then print.

If you'd rather use Niimbot's own app, tap Share PNG to Niimbot app to send the label image there instead.

Step 6: Share by link or QR code (PepShare+)

You can share a schedule, a vial or a pin with someone else who uses PepShare.

  1. Open the item and tap Share this vial, Share pin or Share link.
  2. Send the link, or let the other person scan the QR code.
  3. On their phone, they open the link or tap Scan QR code and the item appears on their Receive screen.

There are no accounts on either side. You choose what to share and when.

Step 7: Import and export with CSV

Your data is yours, and you can move it in and out.

  • Export: Go to Settings and tap Export log as CSV. You'll get a spreadsheet file you can open in Numbers, Excel or Google Sheets.
  • Import (PepShare+): Coming from a spreadsheet or another app? Tap Import log from CSV, pick or paste your file, check the preview and tap Import now.

Step 8: Connect Apple Health for weight (PepShare+)

If you track your weight in Apple Health, PepShare can show it next to your log.

  1. Go to Settings and tap Connect Apple Health.
  2. Allow access to weight.

PepShare reads your weight to show a trend over time. You can also tap Log weight to add an entry by hand. It's optional, and you can turn it off in the iPhone Health settings at any time.

Your privacy, in plain words

  • No account, no sign-up, no email.
  • Your vials, pins and logs are stored on your iPhone.
  • Sharing only happens when you send a link or show a QR code.

A few tips to get the most out of PepShare

  • Type values exactly as they appear on the vial label, so your records stay consistent.
  • Give each person a different color. It makes the Today tab easy to read at a glance.
  • Label vials as soon as you open them.
  • Export a CSV now and then if you want your own copy of your log in a spreadsheet.

Important: PepShare is a tracking tool only

PepShare is a tracking and organization tool. It is not medical advice, and it does not recommend or check any amounts, protocols or compounds. It only records the information you type in. Talk to a qualified healthcare professional before making decisions about your health.
