About TinyPOS

TinyPOS turns a phone or tablet into a simple point of sale for kiosks, market stalls, pop-up shops, coffee carts and independent retailers. It runs its core selling, inventory, checkout, receipt and reporting features on the device without a required account or a constant internet connection, and it is available for iPhone, iPad and Android.

Products can be added manually or scanned with the phone camera, which reads barcodes and QR codes to put items in the cart quickly. Inventory management covers prices, photos, product codes, quantities in stock and items running low. At checkout you record a cash, card or transfer payment, then print or share a receipt. Sales history can be browsed by date, and an end-of-day report summarizes totals, payment methods and top-selling products.

Data is stored locally and can be exported when you choose, and the app is described as privacy-first with no unnecessary accounts. It is published by the Buddy Apps mobile studio as a simpler alternative to complex retail systems.
