  • Love it

    This is so great. I can never remember where things are so this is perfect for me
  • Simple, but works well!

    I love this app! We have used it for years in our home and are now using it for an upcoming move. It’s easy to use, not the best UI, but it works great for what we need.
  • Inaccurate Sorting

    It’s an okay item for what it does. This app however, has a serious glitch in the iOS version: While it lets you add photos to your labeled items, if you open a photo attached to said label you can’t scroll through the different photos for the same label number. Worst of all, they’ve designed the app with no exit option from the photo, so you’re left with choice but to close the app entirely and start again instead of simply closing the photo and backing out to another label (or checking other pictures under the same label). For this reason, I suggest looking at other similar labeling systems as i have no confidence in developers who have such a glaring deficiency in their app.

    This app does about average for helping build a record of where your stuff is. It’s a total failure when you need to sort your labels by date, alphabetical order as it’s always wrong and puts the most recently added in the middle when sitting by date. And you can forget this app sorting the alphabet accurately either in ascending or descending order. Also, there’s no way to sort your labels separately by location as it lumps all locations (basement, attic, garage, etc) together when trying to sort alphabetically, Date or location.

  • Great idea, terrible execution

    I have tried multiple times over many months to make this app useful, hoping that updates will finally make it usable. Nope. The interface is so dumb in so many ways that it’s impossible to describe. The designer might be able to write code but, boy, do they know nothing about interface design/usability.

    Put together a team of people who have never seen this app, watch their struggles, TAKE NOTES, and then fix it it! Or just give up, because it’s unusable in its current state.

  • Great app but missing one thing…

    It would be VERY helpful if it was possible to include the description of each tote below the QR code, when printing it out. I realise that wouldn’t work when purchasing pre-printed labels, but would it be possible to add the description to labels that are downloaded, before printing them? Just seeing a bunch of QR codes on boxes makes sorting and finding things quite a bit more difficult than it needs to be.

    That said, the overall concept and functionality is great!

  • Easy to use and very functional QR app

    So far I love using it. And it’s much cheaper to buy labels and print them vs getting them from Amazon.
    I really love the scan barcode feature which fills in all the details about the product. Sometimes you get a random matching but it’s ok.

    One feature I would like to request is to be able to move items between totes without having to scan the QR code.

    If I go to storage room and forget my phone or no signal and move stuff around. Then later when I get home I can’t update the items inventory. It wants me to go back to storage and scan the code while moving items.
    It would be great if you could also search and scan totes.

    I also assigned a QR code to the entire room (living room) so I can list all the items in that room.
    Obviously I’m not going to put a qr code on the wall in my living room. So it would be great if items can be moved using search as well.

  • Awesome Customer Support

    I was having a problem with child totes not showing up under their parent totes. I emailed Customer Support and they replied and had the problem fixed toot sweet ❤️
  • Useless w/o internet

    If you don’t have internet, you can not access your inventory of totes…talk about furious as $&;!
    It took being outa service & figured this 1 out!!!

    What a waste of hours of work if I can use it any time I need it wherever I go to store stuff.

    Major deal breaker!
  • Amazing app

    I used this app to organize all of my cookie decorating and baking supplies and all of my cookie cutters. I love it so much that I recommend it in One of my cookie decorating groups. After one day I have had so many requests for more information on the app so they can get it too.

    Thank you this has made my baking life much more organized.

  • Needs a Mac Interface

    The app cannot be used with a Mac computer. I have an iPhone 13 mini, which has a small screen. Input of descriptions of tote contents could be facilitated by a keyboard device (in my case a Mac). The larger screen of a Mac you also facilitate viewing detail. The app is otherwise great.
