Almost Perfect!

I have been using this app for over a year. I finally decided to buy a macbook and noticed one small bug; When syncing between an iPhone that has uploaded a bunch of pictures in each belonging, they dont show up on the mac.

Otherwise I am very happy with what you make! Keep it up man!

Does what it says and does it well

It’s a bit basic, but does its job really well! It’d be nice to be able to scan in model/serial numbers with the camera, but the photos option works in a pinch.

Amazing app!

There is a lot of pros to this app, the first being the price! I love one time purchase apps and this fits most of my needs.
I love the simple interface with just what you need at your fingertips, and being able to export in a universal format should be the default for any app!

Some things to add would make this app even better!

- sharing a house with another user. So right now you can share the app with family sharing but an option to share with someone directly so you can both edit and add to a home would be very helpful.

- lastly an option to change quantities of an item. When I buy cables or hard drives, I don't want to put in the same item 4-8 times or combine them if they are purchased on different days.

- option to change currency of purchase (I buy things in usd often so it would just be helpful)

(Only minus 1 star for not having these I hope is fair, if they're ever implemented in the future I'll edit my rating for 5 stars!)

Response from developer

Thank you for your positive feedback, it is useful for me to understand features users require and will add these to my backlog.

Does not work, no support

No instructions at all. Can not load more than one item. No method to contact developer. Should be labeled as fraud.

Just OK

Neat, simple app that serves a purpose.

But please let me rename rooms, and move existing possessions into different rooms! Else it’s a right pain! This would make it fit for purpose and a 4 star app.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback, the features you mention are a high priority alongside a bug fix with photo sync and will be available In a future release.

Does not work

It does not correctly enter amounts to totals and no way to contact the developer got help ;-(

Good app but needs improvement

Limited to one property. Not very useful if one owns multiple properties. Eg: House and cottage or more etc.

Lacks ability to rename Rooms.

Unable to move Belongings between Rooms.

If multiple photos loaded for an item. Selecting to delete one photo ends up deleting the wrong one.

Haven’t tried exporting data yet.

Thank you for the feedback it’s appreciated. Feature requests will be considered for a future release.

Not ready yet

Not able to scan items by barcode and it’s really limited to just the basics. Not worth 1.99

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback, unfortunately barcodes have a recurring cost associated with accessing the product data as an independent developer. Alternate apps on the AppStore get around this by pushing the cost onto the user in the form of a subscription. However barcode scanning is something I am still investigating but isn’t something I can promise at this current point in time. Their are also alternate ways of data entry I am researching which may make it easier to add new items.

Doesn’t sync between devices

I really like the idea of this app, but was disappointed to discover that “Belongings” added don’t sync between iPhone & iPad, that would have made it much easier to edit item detail after taking photos with the iPhone.

Response from developer

Sorry you are experiencing this. data sync between iPhone and iPad is something that “should” be working but their is an issue with photos at the moment.
