<![CDATA[The primary challenge in inventory management for MSMEs like Gallery Muslim lies in the manual recording system using notebooks and Excel spreadsheets, which is prone to errors and data loss. Yet, structured offline mobile solutions for micro-scale fashion MSMEs with fragmented recording practices remain limited. This research aims to design and develop an Android-based stock management application utilizing a local Room Database for efficient and accurate digital recording. The study focuses on Gallery Muslim, a retail shop specializing in Muslim clothing and school uniforms. Data were collected through interviews, direct observation, and focus group discussions (FGD) with store owners and warehouse staff. Instruments included documentation of recording activities and analysis of feature requirements. The results demonstrate that the application accelerates the stock recording process by up to 50% compared to manual methods (based on initial simulations), enhances data accuracy, and enables offline access without an internet connection. The study concludes that this Android-based local application is highly suitable for MSMEs not yet integrated with online systems, offering a practical tool for small business owners to embark on digital transformation and improve operational efficiency.]]>
