MX DeckYour Android maintenance workspace
Keep the timing.
Keep the details.
Countdowns, local and Zulu clocks, parts lookup, references, and trip records—organized in a native Android app that keeps your working information on your device.
Android 8.0 or later · No app account · No ads
Free features with an optional one-time Pro upgrade
One place for the things you reach for
A practical companion for your day.
Timers with context
Set a duration or a specific endpoint. Name and color your timers, reuse presets, pause, resume, snooze, and review their event history. Focus mode brings the countdowns forward.
Parts at hand
Search DLA PUB LOG on your device after downloading its catalog. Keep identifiers and personal notes in your Library, with a clear distinction between your records and source data.
Your reference library
Keep saved parts, reference pointers, notes, and accomplishments together. Add selected photos or documents, record your own job durations, and find local records with search.
Trips and task kits
Organize trips with editable stops, flight details, checklists, and notes. Save reusable task kits to bring related references and timer templates together.
Time and conversions
Read local time, Zulu time, and Julian day together. Convert dates and quantities. Choose standard, seven-segment, or flip-board timer displays and a light or dark theme.
Back up what matters
Choose which categories to export, make an encrypted backup, and review conflicts when merging a restore. Share an individual record only when you choose to.
Inside the app

Start here
Your first few minutes with MX Deck.
Check your clocks and alert setup
Open Dashboard for local time, Zulu time, and Julian day. Review notification and exact-alarm access when prompted. Use the app’s sound test and a short practice timer to check your chosen alert route on your own phone.
Create a countdown
Tap + Timer, enter a title, and choose a duration or endpoint. Check the date and time zone for endpoints, pick the alert options, and start. Use the timer’s controls to pause, resume, add time, snooze, or dismiss. Open Focus for a simpler timer view.
Keep the reference, not just the memory
Open Library and choose Saved parts, References, Notes, or Accomplishments. Add a record, select only the attachments you need, and save. A reference points to your approved technical material; MX Deck does not generate maintenance procedures.
Prepare a trip or a repeatable task
Open Trips, create a trip, and add stops. Enter the details and checklist observations you want to retain. On Dashboard, open Task kits to group related references and timer templates for reuse.
Make a backup you control
Use the app’s backup/export controls, select the categories, and choose a destination through Android. Use encryption for sensitive records and keep the password somewhere safe. When restoring, review the preview and conflict choices before merging.
Know your source
Offline first. Online when you choose.
DLA PUB LOG
The default source is the official downloadable DLA catalog. In Parts → Sources, choose the download/import action and review its storage and network requirements. Allow ample free space—the app requires approximately 8 GB of available space to begin a full import.
The first download and indexing can take time. Keep the progress notification available; the transfer can be cancelled. Once the catalog is ready, searches run locally without sending your query to DLA. A refresh keeps the current edition available until its replacement validates.
LogiQuest Lite
LogiQuest Lite is a separate, optional online source. Use it only when you are authorized to access it, then record that statement in the app. The checkbox records your attestation; it does not grant access rights.
Queries are sent to that provider over the internet when you submit them. You can revoke the app’s authorization state in Sources. Buying Pro does not grant provider authorization, and the app does not silently switch catalog sources.
Catalog editions can age and source fields may be missing. Check the source label, edition, and current authorized technical data. MX Deck does not guarantee compatibility, stock availability, or maintenance suitability, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by DLA or the U.S. government.
Choose the capacity you need
Useful free. More room with Pro.
Both tiers include duration and endpoint timers, Focus, Trips, local/Zulu clocks, Julian conversion, supported catalog searches, and encrypted backup/restore. Pro is an optional one-time Google Play purchase; the app shows the current price for your region before purchase.
| Feature | Free | Pro |
|---|---|---|
| Active timers / custom presets | 3 / 3 | No commercial count cap |
| Saved parts / references | 30 / 20 | No commercial count cap |
| Notes / accomplishments | 30 / 50 | No commercial count cap |
| Task kits / images per saved part | 2 / 1 | No kit count cap / 8 images |
| New search history entries | 50 | Adjustable retention |
| Additional tools | Core tools and basic widgets | Recurring timers, endpoint calendar, additional widgets, custom palette, bulk CSV import, saved filter views, and range reports |
Practical device, storage, and provider limits still apply. Pro removes app count limits where stated; it does not provide unlimited storage or third-party service rights.
Install and stay up to date
Download through Google Play testing.
MX Deck is currently available to approved testers. Ask Sunimod to add the Google account email you use in the Play Store. Then open the enrollment page with that same account, choose to become a tester if prompted, and follow its Google Play download link.
Enrollment is a one-time step for that account. Future releases arrive through the normal Play Store update process while you remain eligible. Enable auto-update in Google Play if you want updates installed automatically.
A direct store link can show “not found” before enrollment, when the wrong Google account is selected, or while Play is processing a release. Start with the enrollment link above. This testing link is not a public production release.
A few useful answers
Setup and everyday use.
What works without an internet connection?
Timers, clocks, local Library records, Trips, and an already imported DLA catalog work on your device. The first catalog download, LogiQuest searches, Google Play purchases, and app updates need a connection. Provider links open their own online services.
What should I check if an alert is quiet or late?
Check MX Deck’s selected sound route and sound test, Android notification and exact-alarm access, the relevant alarm or media volume, connected Bluetooth devices, and your phone’s current Do Not Disturb and battery settings. Run a short test under the conditions you plan to use. Force-stopping an app and device restrictions can affect scheduled alerts; do not rely on this app as the sole safety-critical timer.
Does a part bookmark copy a provider’s full record?
No. A Library bookmark keeps identifiers and a source reference. Personal notes and attachments are your own local information. Open the source record again when you need current catalog details and verify them against your authorized technical material.
Can MX Deck scan a part or read a photo?
No. You can type, paste, or share text into supported fields and attach a photo you select. The app does not use the camera or analyze photos to recognize identifiers.
Where is my information stored?
Your Library, timers, Trips, settings, and selected attachments live in the app’s local storage. Sharing and backup happen when you choose them. Catalog services and Google Play process their own network requests. Read the MX Deck privacy section for details and deletion options.
How do I restore Pro?
Use the same Google account that made the purchase and choose Restore purchases in the app’s Pro screen. Google Play manages the transaction. Clearing local app data does not cancel or refund a purchase.

Short walkthroughs.
These silent recordings show MX Deck 0.1.1 in use. The catalog clips show separate stages of a longer download and import; they do not show the entire transfer.
A timer in the background
Create a 30-second timer, open Focus, leave the app, and dismiss the due notification. Recorded on an Android 8.0 emulator. The clip is silent and does not demonstrate audible volume.

Review the network and free-space requirements, confirm the download, and follow its progress. Recorded on an Android 16 phone using the Google Play build.

After the archives arrive, MX Deck prepares the searchable catalog on your phone. Progress remains visible and the operation can be cancelled. This is a clip of that indexing stage.
