Summary

It’s half past seven in the morning, somewhere in Oregon: the alarm clock goes off, you get up, have a coffee, and wobble back in to your bedroom, the most important question of the day flickering across your brain: what shall I wear today?

A classic style for the office, something comfortable if you’re going shopping, and an elegant ensemble for your restaurant date in the evening…

Every situation calls for an appropriate outfit. But at 7:30 in the morning, when you’re still feeling groggy and stressed out about being late, you really can’t summon up the creativity you need in order to plan that far ahead. If only there were a machine out there that, with just the push of a button, could tell you what to wear… that would eradicate at least one of your daily morning worries.

So that this fantasy becomes a reality, Android developers have come up with “MyCloset”.

Features & Use

Section rating: * * * * *

With “MyCloset”, you can document your entire wardrobe (even your ancient sweats hidden away in the far regions of your closet); you can photograph all your clothes, organize them, and combine them in any way you please.

Under “Item Registration” you can categorize a picture you’ve taken of an item of clothing or accessory according to what type of garment it is (e.g. pants or a top), what color it is, and in how many ways you can wear it (e.g. if it can be worn in both summer and winter).

Once you’ve finished registering everything your closet has to offer you can view, delete and re-arrange everything under “Item Management”.

But that’s not really what “MyCloset” is all about. These are just the preliminary steps you need to take in order to deal with your fashion-related morning indecisiveness. Once that’s done, you can start coordinating outfits for every day under “Log & Coordinate”. That way, all you have to do is switch your “MyCloset” app on a daily basis, enter the date, and see a photo documentation of the day’s combination of clothes.


 

Screen & Controls

Section rating: * * * * *

“MyCloset” is very nicely designed. It’s quite simple but very detailed. Controls are easy to use and it’s also easy to figure out how to use them.

Whenever you have a few minutes to kill (on the subway, during your lunch break) all you need to do is browse through your virtual closet, select a date and start combining items listed under “Tops, Bottoms, Outer, Shoes, Accessories and Others” using the “Coordinate” button. After pressing “OK” you’ll have saved your outfit for the date you selected.

One of the big advantages when using “MyCloset” is that you revisit items you had completely forgotten about, the ones lurking in the nether regions of your wardrobe. So long as you’ve taken a picture of them and included them in your inventory, you may start wearing them again much more frequently.

 

Speed & Stability

Section rating: * * * * *

I was satisfied with the app’s speed, but it really bothered me that error reports kept popping up, so I wasn’t particularly impressed with the app’s stability. I had to shut it down on several occasions.

Price/Performance Ratio

Section rating: * * * * *

This app can be downloaded for free from the Android Market.

TWO NEW ALBUMS!!!!!! >:( Pretty cool does what it says, but I dont want to look in my photo gallery and find two new albums >:( plz fix
* * * * *   Lulu, Oct 8, 2011
A decent start. Should allow you to use pics from card. Can't edit category once saved. Needs backup, PLEASE!! Where is version 1.5??
* * * * *   Liza, Sep 9, 2011
Too small pictures and hard to use interface. Unfortunately I've replaced it with smart closet.
* * * * *   Jenny, Sep 5, 2011
The app had been best in market until smart closet was released. Sometimes it hungs.
* * * * *   Valerie, Aug 25, 2011
Great app, does what it says. Fairly easy to use, simple, I like the feature for logging what you wear each day. 5 stars if a tutorial was available to learn the system faster.
* * * * *   dymond, Aug 10, 2011
Started deleting items from closet. Like wtf!!
* * * * *   Alex, Aug 8, 2011
Will not import things uploaded on web account, should have option to add/name new categories.
* * * * *   Laura, Jul 29, 2011
Doesnt let me connect
* * * * *   vicktoria, Jul 28, 2011
Good idea, but not so good result. Not enough categories, it doesn't do much and there is no option for multicolored clothes.
* * * * *   Nicole, Jul 23, 2011
Love it. Wish I could add additional categories like bags or update photo of item. Best thing of it's kind I've found so far.
* * * * *   Tom, Jul 14, 2011
Rubbish ,it slowed my phone down
* * * * *   Elizabeth, Jul 7, 2011
It's a cool idea but colors for the clothes show up inaccurate which makes the app pretty much useless even with extra lighting an an hd camera phone.
* * * * *   Rin, Jun 27, 2011
I've been happily using this app for about two years, actually... It's so helpful in planning, but even moreso come Spring cleaning time!
* * * * *   danielle, Jun 23, 2011
Use it daily, good app. Pictures of clothes are ssmall and it takes a little time to upload clothes but overall very useful And best clothe app!
* * * * *   latasha, Jun 20, 2011
Please add dresses and jumpsuit category. Also make it easy to rearrange outfits into correct category
* * * * *   cj, Jun 15, 2011
Weird concept, but actually really cool!
* * * * *   Garth, Jun 10, 2011
