When Destiny was released in 2014, Sol was much simpler.

In the summer of 2014, we took our first steps in the Cosmodrome during the Destiny Alpha. For the past decade, Bungie has been giving us ever greater worlds to explore explore and mechanics to master. Fortunately for us, Bungie also created a comprehensive API which spawned an entire real universe of tools to help navigate all of that complexity.

The challenging bit is that with each new mechanic and subsystem comes a new spreadsheet to download or another website tab to have open. For example:
​​​​
-
How many Deepsights do I need to unlock this pattern?
-
How close am I to gilding Iron Lord?
-
What is today's Lost Sector?
-
What special Stasis weapons can I craft?
-
And so on...

From my teens through my thirties, I was a PC gamer at heart. In my 40s I moved over to console and like relaxing on the couch, with my phone or tablet at arms' length. My personal preference is not to have my laptop open; just feels a bit like work.

In the summer of 2021 I set a goal: play Destiny without a laptop/web browser for the majority of my sessions. Three years and 3,000+ commits later, Vault Zero is now my daily driver: a companion app that puts just enough of what you need to know at your fingertips.
Multiplatform Support
With the release of Vault Zero 2.0, it now natively supports iPhone, iPad and Apple Silicon. Multiple platforms... so long as that platform is Apple 🙃 The feature previews following are all iPhone, but designed to work well across both iPhone, iPad and MacOS.
