Aviator

Heraldry has a grammar, and Aviator lets you speak it. Build 🔨 a shield from the ground up — choose the field and how it is divided, lay on an ordinary, set your charges, and give each part its tincture. As you work, the arms are drawn on the shield in the old engraving hatching and the formal blazon is written out for you in the same breath: change a charge and both the picture and its wording change with it. A quiet check ✅ watches the old rule — never colour upon colour, nor metal upon metal — and tells you the moment a design breaks it, and where.

Every device 📱 you make hangs in your armory, a wall of shields you can favourite, reopen and refine. A reference holds two dozen charges — lions and eagles, roses and escallops, mullets and martlets — each with the meaning it has carried for centuries, alongside the ordinaries, the field divisions and the tinctures with their symbolism; tap 👆 any of them to drop it straight onto the shield you are drawing. A short primer explains the rule of tincture, the parts of the escutcheon and the marks of cadency for anyone coming to the craft fresh.

Out in the world, coats of arms are everywhere — over a guildhall door, on a bookplate, cut into a monument. Photograph one and it joins your armory as a record of where you saw it, with room for the house it belongs to and your own notes 📝; any photo 📸 can be replaced or removed whenever you wish. Your stats read the whole collection 📚 back — which tinctures you favour, which charges recur, and how many of your designs stay true to the rule.
