### 2/5 — Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt (noch) nicht.

*2025-04-21, version 2.1.6*

Für den Pro-Preis von 120 Euro im Jahr kann man gerade mal 500 Objekte in der Cloud verwalten. Ich schätze ich bräuchte mindestens 1000 oder mehr. Für Starter Kit (36 €/Jahr) mit 1000 Objekten in der Cloud wäre ich dabei.
Kostenlos kann man 2 Geräte pro Account benutzten, aber die tauschen lokal keine Daten aus. Da kann man auch mit mehreren Accounts kostenlos beliebig viele Geräte benutzen.
Für Starter Kit (36 €/Jahr) mit unbegrenzten Objekten, die sich lokal synchronisieren wäre ich dabei.

Die Druckfunktion ist im Format A4 als PDF. Ausdrucke der Label auf einem der gängigen Labeldrucker wären zu erwarten.

Leider kann man die Daten auch nicht als CSV uploaden und viel unverständlicher als CSV auch nicht downloaden.

Fazit: Für den Preis noch zu wenig Funktionen. Für das Volumen von maximal 500 Objekten kann ich auch eine einfache Exceltabelle mit entsprechenden Forms benutzen. Das ist flexibler und kostet mich nichts.

### 3/5 — Easier to use after update

*2025-04-08, version 2.1.6*

Still a bit hard to remember how to use. After the update creating items and moving them between ‘boxes’ is easier, and the search function too, But the QR codes created and printed no longer work - goes straight to ‘404 Page not found’ error - very annoying!

### 4/5 — Collaborators

*2025-02-18, version 2.1.5*

I love the app, the only down fall for me personally is not being able to add collaborators to certain projects given I use this for work and shared inventory. The features are amazing otherwise.

### 1/5 — Deleted all my data with update

*2025-01-10, version 2.1.2*

Spent hrs working on projects and organizing stuff that i cant take back and it got deleted

### 1/5 — Daten weg

*2025-01-10, version 2.1.2*

Leider sind nach dem Update alle Daten weg. 
Die neue Version ist unübersichtlich geworden.
Nicht mehr intuitiv wie vorher…
Sind die Daten wenigstens wiederherstellbar?
Gruß

### 1/5 — Update

*2025-01-10, version 2.1.2*

You updated automatically and I lost every box that was organized.  Poorly thought out update.  And you’re “sorry for the inconvenience” …. I lost hours upon hours of organized boxes - f y

### 4/5 — Fast perfekt!

*2024-12-20, version 0.6*

Eigentlich einfach und genial, einfach genial!🤩

Aber für 5 Sterne fehlt noch eine Kleinigkeit, die ihr bitte mit dem nächsten Update ändern könntet. Und zwar kann man leider aus unerfindlichen Gründen keinen Bestand von 0 angeben! Minimum ist 1. Das ist sehr schlecht. Wenn ich zB von einem bestimmten Nahrungsmittel oder Medikament oder.. keinen Bestand mehr habe, möchte ich dort eine null sehen und nicht eine eins. Die Alternative wäre nur den Gegenstand ganz zu löschen, was natürlich völlig blödsinnig wäre, wenn man ihn mühsam mit Foto angelegt hat und wieder neu aufstocken wird.

### 4/5 — Prima App

*2024-10-27, version 0.6*

Die App an sich und der Ansatz mit den QR-Codes ist super, ich nutze die App echt gerne! Cool fände ich eine Version für mein IPad und die Möglichkeit ein Ablaufdatum (bspw. Für Lebensmittel oder Ähnliches) hinzuzufügen

### 4/5 — Does almost everything

*2024-08-02*

Great search features, QR coding, etc. Just wish I could sync between devices, print a list of contents, and add a picture of a box.

### 1/5 — Needs Sharing Feature So Family Can Scan Themselves

*2024-07-14*

I love this app! But, it is a bit silly that you cannot share the data from your account. My husband cannot use his own phone to scan what I’ve packed to see what is in it and there is no way to share boxes, therefore….your entire family needs to catalogue the same things on their own devices. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ I give it 5 stars for the app, but 1 star for the lack of sharing only because that is the point is to make life easier for anyone accessing the box. 😆 love you guys. Great job. Please add this feature!!!! I would pay a lifetime fee to have it.

### 1/5 — Won’t let you opt out from data analytics.

*2025-05-11*

First time opening the app in a while and it goes to a page that explains the app’s data use policy, then some underlined text”No, I do not want to contribute to improving the app” and a button on the bottom of the screen to “Allow Analytics “. The decline text does not do anything. You have to Allow to continue to use the app. Why even put the text to decline if you won’t let people choose it.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and for pointing this out.

What you’ve encountered is a bug that affects buttons within scrollable lists and is not specific to this feature. We’re aware of the issue and are actively working on a fix to ensure all options function as intended.

In the meantime, if you’ve already tapped “Allow” just to proceed, you can still opt out of all analytics at any time via the app’s settings under Privacy.

We really appreciate your patience and understanding while we resolve this.

### 1/5 — Komplett verbuggt

*2025-05-09, version 2.1.6*

Funktioniert nicht. Nur verbuggt

### 1/5 — Bad customer service

*2025-03-06, version 2.1.6*

After using this to organise my boxes I found lots of little annoyances/issues which makes it unusable for me. (Too many things to list here) I appreciate its free, but it’s unloved. Also, I tried emailing for help and didn’t receive a reply.

### 1/5 — Lost all my info

*2025-03-02, version 2.1.6*

This was wonderful while it worked but something happened and the app would no longer open. I lost all my information which was extensive.  I am very sad.

### 1/5 — New update made it stop working

*2025-02-27*

I loved this app initially but ever since the recent update, I’ve had problems. It wiped all of my data when I opened it back up after the update. Now I can’t even get the app to open, it just stalls on the main screen when I click on it. I’m very frustrated because I spent quite a bit of time organizing and categorizing several large things before putting them into storage and now I can’t even use the app to know where what I’m working look for is located.

### 1/5 — Absolute failure

*2025-02-23, version 2.1.5*

I chose this app extensively for moving. And now that I need it to find stuff it is no longer working and hangs. I am speechless. Why did I pick this app?

### 1/5 — DS Einstellungen nicht akzeptabel

*2025-01-18, version 2.1.3*

Die Übermittlung von Nutzungs- und Analysedaten kann man NICHT abschalten.
Dabei ist auch egal, ob sie ‚anonymisiert‘ werden oder wirklich anonym sind.
Sorry, aber das übergriffig und entmündigt den Anwender.
Daher werde ich auf die App verzichten.

### 1/5 — Update erased all the data

*2025-01-12, version 2.1.2*

The new update erased all the data I had stored in the app. Did not give any options to migrate data.

### 1/5 — Users beware!!

*2025-01-12*

Many of you are likely on the old version 0.6.

The new version has completely changed.

Backup your data, find a different app or just do not update before you know what you’re getting into.

The entire app has shifted to a software as a service which WILL push overpriced subscriptions. They’re currently offering a free service but understand all of these apps end the same. This is no longer the same app. It went from 0 major updates at version 0.6 for a long time to version 2.0 within the last month.

It used to be developed by Felix Moser as the main developer to a company called BO24 UG (haftungsbeschränkt). While Felix still is a key principal in this new formed company this bodes bad news for anyone that enjoyed this app in the past and a privacy nightmare now that they’re implementing AI.

### 1/5 — New Update

*2025-01-10*

This new update completely screwed me over. It wiped my whole inventory and now I have nothing stored and have to start from scratch. Absolutely frustrating and unacceptable. I will looking for a more reliable alternative.

**Developer response:** Hi JonX86,

We’re really sorry to hear about your experience with the latest update. We completely understand how frustrating it must be to see your inventory disappear - that’s absolutely not the experience we want for any of our users.

There was a small bug during the rollout of the new version that caused this issue for some users, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. The good news is that we’ve already fixed it with version 2.1.2, and users have confirmed that their data is now fully restored after logging back into the app.

Please make sure you’re on the latest version, and try reopening the app - your data should reappear automatically. If it doesn’t, please reach out to us directly, and we’ll do everything we can to get you back on track.

Again, we’re deeply sorry for the frustration caused by this issue, and we really appreciate your patience as we worked to resolve it.

### 5/5 — Top Support

*2025-06-27, version 2.2.2*

Tolle App zum organisieren des Haushalts oder Kisten/Schubfachlager wo man nicht immer alles aufmachen möchte um zu wissen was drin ist. Für mich wichtig und der Grund diese App zu verwenden, die App hat eine einfache Logik und nicht hunderte von Unterfunktionen. Insbesondere ist der auch der gute Kontakt zu den Entwicklern zu erwähnen, die auf den Hinweis von kleineren Bugs nach dem letzten IOS Update sofort reagiert und das gefixt haben, inkl. persönlicher Rückmeldung. Top!

### 5/5 — Optimal

*2025-06-15, version 2.2.2*

Ich nutze die App für meinen Umzug, anschließend wahrscheinlich sogar weiterhin. Ich finde die App super übersichtlich, das Team hat auf eine Email von mir sofort reagiert und innerhalb weniger Tage eine neue Funktion hinzugefügt. Wahnsinn! Ich finds klasse wie sie alles einfach einfach macht. Weiter so!

### 5/5 — Art. 20 DSGVO

*2025-04-12, version 2.1.6*

Von mir gibt es eigentlich weiterhin 3 Sterne...
Äh. Könnt Ihr bitte kurzfristig einen Datenexport bauen? Wer Daten verarbeitet muss diese auch auf Wunsch übertragen. Liebe Grüße ❤️

### 5/5 — Super App

*2025-01-24, version 2.1.4*

Die App ist toll und genau das, was ich immer gesucht habe. Die Sharing Funktion der Cloud-Projekte mit anderen Leuten ist super und richtig einfach zu nutzen. Zudem nutze ich oft die wirklich umfangreiche Suchfunktion, die es . richtig leicht und schnell macht, Sachen zu finden.

### 5/5 — Super!

*2025-01-13, version 2.1.2*

Ich liebe die App, ordne damit hauptsächlich Kinderkleidung die noch vom 2. Kind getragen werden soll. „Habe ich noch ne Matschhose in 104?“ Nix einfacher, als das herauszufinden. Ein Verbesserungswunsch: Tags per Suche vergeben. Mittlerweile habe ich sehr viele Tags vergeben und es hält etwas auf, die gewünschten Tags nur durch Scrollen finden zu können. Ansonsten wirklich mega! Danke

### 5/5 — Perfekt

*2025-01-10, version 2.1.2*

So stellt man sich eine perfekte App vor. Guter Austausch zu den Entwicklern. Danke für euren Einsatz!

### 5/5 — Everything I Wanted

*2024-11-20, version 0.6*

It has everything I need! The subfolders, tags and photos. It also has cute icons and very clearly displayed. I certainly love it expect it could not upload to iCloud ;(

### 5/5 — All the boxes checked

*2024-10-27*

So I’ve looked for a reasonably priced app to help with A) Organizing packed boxes for my move and B) Organizing my workshop & garage storage after the move. We put in our due diligence in testing each app for these needs with a trial sampling and the BoxOrganizer is the tool we needed. Not due to the incredible “price” but for the simplicity and boxes it checks, so to speak. The developer, Felix Peter Moser, has met our wants and provided a tool we will use for a good long time. Thanks Felix for investing in the development and sharing your efforts at an outstanding price point.

### 5/5 — When is the update coming?

*2024-08-29, version 0.6*

From all the apps to inventory my stuff I like this one the most. 
But I would really love to add other people to it too. For example if we share a shed and want to have a shared inventory to acces from multiple devices. That would be soooo awesome. 
Thank you :)

### 5/5 — It Does Not Get Better Than This - Stellar App!

*2024-08-09, version 0.6*

I am thoroughly impressed with the team behind this app! They have truly delivered a remarkable product with a clean user interface that is incredibly easy to navigate. I can't stress enough how exceptional this app is for organizing boxes. 

One standout feature is the ability to create custom labels for your boxes, which you can print and later scan using the app. This functionality sets it apart from the competition in the box organization category. I’m still in awe of how well this app has been executed!

I wholeheartedly support the team and would love to see a tip section added to show appreciation for their hard work.

A Minor Suggestion (unless I completely overlooked it):

If I could make one small request, it would be the ability to take photos of the boxes themselves. Since boxes can vary in color and shape, having the option to use a photo as the box icon would be a game-changer. This would enhance the visual organization and make it even easier to locate specific boxes.

Searching for items is a breeze thanks to the intuitive search feature and tagging system. However, I can imagine that when faced with a sea of boxes, it might become challenging to find what you need. For now, I’ve resorted to labeling each box with a large letter and number to make them easier to spot from a distance.

Overall, this app is a fantastic tool for anyone looking to streamline their box organization process. Highly recommended!
