RedCurtain

Every night at
the theatre.
Remembered.

RedCurtain is the theatre diary for iPhone and iPad. Every show you've seen and every one you're planning to see, with Siri, Apple Intelligence and visual intelligence at its heart.

The diary

What you saw.
Where you sat.

Every show, in the order you saw them, with the theatre and the date attached. Open one and the rest of the night is there: the auditorium and the seat, what you paid and who sold you the ticket, a half-star rating and a note.

The Shows list in RedCurtainA single logged show in RedCurtain

Twenty-three genres, each in its own colour.

From Shakespeare to circus, every genre brings its own palette to your diary, so a season of musicals looks nothing like a season of new writing.

A Want to See list.

The next booking, and the one after it, kept in view alongside everything you've already seen. Log a show when you book it and the entry is waiting for your rating on the way home.

Rate it by the half-star.

Because four isn't quite right and five is a lie. Add a note for the rest, while you still remember who was understudying.

Logging a show

Log a show any way you like.

Logging a show should never be a chore, so there's a way in for every moment of the evening: the walk to the Tube, the queue at the bar, the sofa a week later.

From a photo

Photograph a ticket, a booking confirmation, a programme or a theatre marquee. RedCurtain reads the show, theatre and date, then opens a ticket already filled in, with the photo kept alongside it. Nothing is saved until you say so.

By voice, with Siri

Log a show in your own words. Siri asks for the title, theatre and date, understands natural answers, follow-ups and corrections, and prepares the show for you to confirm. No special phrases to remember.

From the camera, with visual intelligence

Point the camera at a marquee or a ticket and RedCurtain answers from your own tickets, with the shows you've seen in that building. One tap logs what the camera is looking at.

From Apple Wallet

Share a Wallet pass straight into RedCurtain and the show is staged for review, complete with theatre, seat and performance time.

From a link or a screenshot

Share a booking confirmation, a ticketing link or a screenshot from any app, and RedCurtain reads the show and theatre from it.

From Calendar

RedCurtain scans your calendar for theatre bookings, past and future, and presents them for approval. Anything you don't approve is discarded.

From ticket exports

Import your history from ticketing services in moments, with every ticket reviewed before it joins your diary.

Or by typing

A fast, searchable Add Show sheet with theatre suggestions, for anyone who prefers their thumbs.

However a show arrives, RedCurtain records what matters: the date, the theatre and auditorium, the seat, what was paid, who sold the ticket, a half-star rating and a note.

Awards

Applause for the audience.

Every show you log counts towards Awards, a collection of handcrafted honours for the people in the seats.

  • 25 Musicals

  • First Opera

  • Walk-On

Turn any award over to find the date it was earned.

RedCurtain presenting the awards earned by an imported history

Made to be turned over.

Every award is an interactive 3D piece in the style of an art deco enamel pin. Spin it, and turn it over to find the date you earned it engraved on the back.

Your history counts.

Awards work backwards as well as forwards. Import the shows you saw years ago and RedCurtain presents everything already earned, each award dated to the show that earned it.

Almost there.

See which awards are closest, and hide any you'd rather not chase without losing a step of progress.

Memories

Keep the moment,
not just the date.

Memories turns each show into a keepsake. On a freeform canvas, layer photos from the show, scanned tickets and programme pages, designed tiles, text and stickers, then move, rotate and scale each one until it feels like your own.

Six filters named for the theatre.

From Stage Door to Curtain Call, with instant film and Marquee frames to finish the picture.

Share it your way.

Export a Memory as a portrait, landscape or square image, ready for wherever your friends are.

Lift it out of the photo.

A tap lifts a friend or a set piece out of a photo to become a sticker.

The Insights screen in RedCurtain

Insights

What only your tickets could tell you.

The theatres you return to. The writers and companies you follow without realising. The novels you've seen adapted more than once, and the themes that run through what you choose. Every insight is drawn from facts about the shows themselves, not guesswork.

Counted by show, not by ticket.

Insights ranks by distinct shows, so a favourite seen a dozen times never drowns out the rest of your diary.

Honest about small numbers.

With only a handful of shows logged, Insights says the patterns are still forming rather than inventing a trend.

Works offline.

Every insight is worked out on your device from your own tickets, so it is there in the interval with no signal.

Theatres

Every room
you've sat in.

Every theatre you've been to gets its own page: the address, a pin on the map, and every show you have ever seen there. Somewhere new is marked as a first visit.

Designed for iOS 27 and iPadOS 27

Built for the platform. All of it.

RedCurtain is built exclusively for iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 and embraces the platforms completely, from the Lock Screen to the share sheet.

Widgets

Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets count down to the next show, offer directions to the theatre, and list what's coming up.

Notifications

A nudge to take a photo 30 minutes before curtain, a reminder to silence your iPhone or iPad five minutes before, and a note the morning after about a show you haven't yet rated or made a Memory for.

A rich, native design

Poster artwork and colour palettes drawn from each show, so the app looks like the season you've had.

Privacy by design.
As private as a diary in a drawer.

Sign in with your Apple Account, and your tickets, photos and Memories sync privately through your own iCloud account, never through our servers. Siri conversations are interpreted on device. Calendar access is asked for only when you choose to import, and can be revoked at any time in Settings. RedCurtain works offline, collects only anonymous usage data, and every ticket exports to CSV whenever you like, so your history is always yours to keep.
