Leave a Review Minvy
Amazing and free
I was an early adopter of Minvy and it does one thing well - which is what I want . Makes it simple to create an inventory of household items using photos and videos. The developers are really responsive and are clearly focused on their users - they’ve added features based on my feedback - all this for FREEShow lessbobbloke
Multiple steps required
I’m frustrated by this app.
The bad: you can’t add an item directly from the camera. You have to add an item, and THEN take a picture, or add an item by selecting a photo ALREADY in your photo library
But this app, to be truly simple, should simply allow you to take a picture and add the item to the inventory.
Here’s my experience.
1. Select Add an item
2. Select the camera icon
3. Take the picture
4. Confirm “use this photo”
5. Overlay slides down
6. No item added, no picture of the item. It’s like nothing happened.
Fix this, and it’s a 5 star app. But the thing that should be simplest in the app, isn’t.Show lessExistential.Pirate

We're absolutely delighted that you cared enough to provide feedback . We've identified the issue you raised as a major obstacle to using Minvy and have introduced a fix. Feel free to send more suggestions and feedback to support@minvy.aianother unfinished, buggy app with promise?
As a home inventory tool, Minvy has a lot of features for an ostensibly free app. It even lets you add custom categories and export data. Very promising if it can be fixed to work well. This maybe is the lite, crippled version? Adding a third item gets you stuck at “processing” message and you must close the app and restart to add item. Adding a label takes several tries. Basically, anytime you want to perform an action, you need to close the app and restart to see the result. Perhaps rushed to market unfinished? Too bad Apple leadership team is unfamiliar with concepts like quality and performance standards. This app could be really good if the developer would have tested it and fixed the bugs before release. Possible alternative: just updated to IO 15.4 and maybe Apple did something stupid that now broke a really good app? Also, this app is apparently made only for phone; on ipad the menu titles and other content are partly cut off, regardless of screen orientation.Show lesshaus blend
