### 4/5 — Does what I need it to.

*2024-12-22, version 1.995*

It’s got a lot of options for details.
It’s definitely way better than most inventory apps, especially the apps that are free.

I use it for documenting products/ Items to be resold.

Honestly, the layout is a little boring, lol, would like if it had more flavor, but I’m young (20’s), so someone older might prefer it, idk.

I would love
if there was an option to list the model/model number, and maybe even the serial number.

### 4/5 — Presque parfait …

*2024-06-14*

Le lecteur de code barre n’est malheureusement pas opérationnel sinon c’était 5 étoiles

### 5/5 — A le mérite d'exister!

*2022-09-16*

Après un temps d'adaptation à la logique de l'application, l'utilisation devient extremement simple et légère d'emploi et couvre la majorité des cas de figures liés au besoin de rangement. Les modifications liées au rangement ultérieur sont aussi très simples à gérer.
Application capable de s'adapter aux mille et une façon de ranger propre à chacun.
Je recommande cette appli.

### 5/5 — Helped me find my sanity!

*2022-09-09*

We are new to living aboard a sailboat full-time. Storing everything to cook, clean, navigate and maintain a boat and still find clean clothes is a challenge! This app definitely helped me find everything I hid in all the boat cubby holes so we don’t over-purchase items or run out. Now we can find them when needed.

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2022-07-26, version 1.995*

I have a jewelry business and I use this app to catalogue my beads,findings, tools, etc. I love it because it is portable. When I am shopping for new supplies I have my entire inventory with me so I am not purchasing any duplicates. It took me quite a while to get everything entered but was well worth it. App is very easy to use.

### 5/5 — "Where the $@& ! did I put that..."

*2022-06-19*

this is a super handy little app for those of us who can never seem to remember where we have stored things. Although it’s not really a customizable database it has a slew of handy features including if you loan an item to someone, the value, etc. With a few tweaks it could probably be used to help with insurance claims (allow multiple photos, attachments, etc.) though I know that's not its intended purpose. Hopefully the developer is still maintaining it!

### 5/5 — Great for my Department 56 items inventory

*2022-06-19, version 1.995*

I love love love love this app.  It’s so easy to use and I keep the inventory of all my Department 56 items organized.  Thank you.

### 5/5 — Have used this to organize for 12 years

*2022-06-06*

I’ve been the manager of a kids summer camp kitchen for 12 years. This app is helping me organize my pantry and inventory. It helps me remember the things from one year to the next that are kept in storage. It has lots of features that I’m not even using that looks really neat.

### 5/5 — Super application

*2022-05-04, version 1.995*

Excellente application pour contrôler les produits saisonniers comme les engrais, paillis, produits pour la piscine etc... Garder un œil sur les dates de fin de garantie de certains biens et/ou produits.

### 5/5 — Best App

*2022-05-02*

This is one of my favorite apps. I have been using the tool since 2011. Over the years I have pretty much identified, itemized and located all my possessions. I can tell when I purchased the item, how much I paid, who I purchased it from and where it is located in my house. Pretty much all my possessions are at my fingertips and when I need to know where something is, it is easy to find. Invaluable and totally unique application for my phone. Pleasantly surprised to see that developer has been updating the app about once a year. Would hate to lose this one.

### 5/5 — Great application

*2022-04-24*

Only the photos of the items should be larger so that it’s easy to see at a glance.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-04-05, version 1.995*

Moved house and this was a great app to make things really easy. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Invaluable

*2022-03-27*

I love this app.  I’m kind of mad at Apple for making it hard to find.  No other product gives you this kind of functionality without collecting your data and charging a lot.  

The organization setup is perfect for home use.  

As soon as I figure out the family sharing part I will be really set. Love this app!

### 5/5 — Great versatility

*2022-03-04, version 1.995*

This is a great tool for getting organized and tracking information on items of value. I highly recommend it.

### 4/5 — Pas d’équivalent mais plus de maintenance

*2022-02-15*

Bonjour,
J’utilise l’app depuis quelques années et vraiment elle est super : fonctionnelle et stable (et par les temps qui courent …).
Malheureusement j’ai l’impression qu’il n’y a plus d’évolution et ça m’inquiète. Est-ce qu’une évolution d’iOS rendrait l’app inopérante ?
La fonction qui manque (évoquée par d’autres avis) : une meilleure synchronisation avec iCloud et la prise en compte du partage familial. 
Je serai prêt à repasser à la caisse pour cette sécurisation, mon usage a largement amorti le coût initial…

### 3/5 — À découvrir mais attention à la sauvegarde !

*2022-01-17*

Beaucoup de collègues professeurs de danse et moi même cherchions un outil fonctionnel et adapté pour gérer nos stocks de costumes et nous recommandons vivement cette application ! Pas besoin de saturer votre Google photo avec des données, une façon simple et clair de retrouver par catégorie, avec les tailles, les quantités, l’emplacement exact dans votre lieu de stockage…
Seul problème: la sauvegarde !!! Après plus de 3 semaines de travail d’inventaire j’ai tout perdu car j’ai dû faire une mise à jour retour usine de mon iPhone suite à de nombreux pb et l’application que j’avais acheté quelques semaines plus tôt avait disparu…Impossible de retrouver mes données sur mac car pas de compte spécifique, juste une trace de mon pdf que j’avais généré quelques jours avant…
Je serai prête à refaire confiance à cette appli si elle me garantissait une possibilité de sauvegarder sur iCloud et retrouver mon catalogue en temps réel sur mac grâce à un identifiant apple de sorte de pérenniser mes heures de travail d’inventaire et de ne jamais perdre l’appli (payante) même si je devais changer de téléphone…

### 1/5 — Abandonnée 😡

*2024-02-18*

Édit 2024 : plus de mises à jour, application abandonnée qui pourtant avait du potentiel. À oublier.

Édit quelques jours plus tard : je conserve l’application finalement, car pour les factures, dans note, on peut mettre une photo. Par contre il faut absolument moderniser cette application, graphiquement et ergonomiquement.
La synchronisation automatique serait un énorme plus.
Actuellement il faut effectuer 5 clics pour cela, manuellement et il faut chercher pour trouver comment synchroniser. Pas du tout intuitif!

Messieurs les concepteurs, la balle est dans votre camp 😉🙏🏻

Et oui, je pensais que l’on pouvait scanner les codes barre des différents objets et que l’application irait chercher les infos sur le net, comme le font tant d’applications... Raté, le code n’est jamais reconnu et il faut tout rentrer manuellement. Il ne sert qu’à retrouver un objet dans votre liste déjà remplie. De plus je pensais, au vu des photos d’écran (un bouton .pdf) que l’on pouvait associer une facture à l’objet. Et raté encore, la non plus ce n’est pas possible. Je vais tenter de me faire rembourser. Déçu, très déçu.

### 1/5 — Needs improvement

*2016-11-01, version 1.983*

I just started trying to use this app. The photos seemed to be a good idea but I can't enlarge the photos in the sample Db. They are way too small/low resolution to be useful. I don't think I'm going to continue trying to use it.

### 1/5 — Iphone 6 - no camera scanning

*2014-10-01, version 1.88*

Iphone 6 - no camera scanning

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2013-05-14, version 1.79*

This is the most useless app ever.
Makes dealing with photo's and information almost impossible.
Do not bother wasting your time or money. My deceased grand mother could have done a better job on this one.

### 1/5 — Don't Waste Your Money 👎

*2012-08-07, version 1.73*

I downloaded the lite version and found it fairly simple to use, but it allowed you a very limited no. of items you could inventory, so of course I caved a bought the paid version.  I put in a  number of items in my paid version, but still had about 13 items in the lite. Customer support gave me instructions for importing into the paid version but failed to mention that it ERASES all the data  in the paid version.  So angry, customer service gave a curt sorry, there's nothing we can do!  Do yourself a favor and get a version that allows you to save to Dropbox and has a customer service team that is not quite so flippant!  I really wish that apps could be refunded.

### 2/5 — 1980’s scanner

*2023-02-14, version 1.995*

The bar code scanner is not easy to use. You need just the right amount of light and after that it won’t be found in their database. I scanned 34 everyday items and NOT ONE was found in the database.  What a waste of money. Deleting app

### 2/5 — Good but...

*2017-01-13, version 1.983*

Since writing the review below I have YET to see one update. This could be so much more but the developers don't seem to want to improve it. I paid for the upgrade so now I'm stuck with it I guess...until I find a better app.
Jan12, 2017
-------
1. I'd love to be able re-name databases. 
2. Syncing between devices is too complicated with the saving to Dropbox etc And even emailing the files I'd hit-n-miss. Live updates would make this app stellar!!!
3. I use (my paid version) for my home based business, finished products, and I'd love a "sold" feature 
4. Adding notes section could be spiffed up to look cleaner, more streamlined.

### 2/5 — Not bad

*2012-04-22, version 1.69*

Can we change the currency please to Aus dollars

### 3/5 — Useful but Needs to be more user friendly

*2024-09-27, version 1.995*

I can never remember the name of this app. If you search for inventory which is the first word that comes to mind it is about 30th in the App Store and doesn’t show up on my phone at all.  if you search for storage in the App Store it doesn’t show up for pages 

The photo in the App Store shows nice bars separating the different levels, mine just has a list which is difficult to navigate.

I want to add a different place of storage at level zero but then realised I had already done that and it seems to be impossible to delete it. So I’m just finding it hard work.

### 3/5 — Bien mais peu mieux faire

*2022-11-12*

Point positif: une fois la logique compris, l’application fonctionne bien, permet de créer les emplacements de rangements avec plusieurs niveaux. Le scan du code barre, l’ajout de photo est un vrai plus. 

Point négatif. L’ergonomie de l’application est pas très intuitive, à mon sens il manque de pouvoir attribuer les sorties de stock à une destination, exemple «  chantier Xy » une synchronisation automatique entre les appareils iPhone iPad pour le même compte.
La possibilité de modifier l’ordre des rangements 

Cela reste une bonne application que je recommande, le prix est très correcte.
 Une synchronisation auto et l’attribution des sorties de stock et les 5 étoiles seront plus que méritées!!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2024-12-27, version 1.995*

This is a solid app with just a few minor issues. I hope they continue to improve it and not abandon it. But it's been 3yrs with no updates. 😕

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2024-11-30, version 1.995*

I’ve been trying a few apps to record my inventory, this has been the best so far, very accurate, took a while to input the information, but very, very happy with the end result. Really easy to change the stock level when used or added and the pdf print off of your inventory is spot on. So many other apps print off your inventory out of order, which makes things difficult when doing a stocktake, but eStorage is in order & shows an image of the item to make it even simpler. Brilliant, well worth the money.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-11-01, version 1.995*

Took a little time to figure out my system. But now that I have one it’s great !!!

### 5/5 — Life Changing

*2024-09-14, version 1.995*

I have been using this app for a decade and I love it. Each time we move we wonder if this mirror will fit, or that chest of drawers. Along with a photo of every piece of furniture and painting and print are its dimensions and that’s probably what is most useful. I’m a realtor and I recommend this to anyone moving, anyone who has anything worth insuring, and collectors of various things, from baseball cards to clothes to cars. I know a wine collector who uses the bar code feature for his wine collection, categorized by age, type, rating and when it should be opened.

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2024-03-07, version 1.995*

For most people this is all you will ever need on an inventory app. Best inventory app for regular people and small business inventory

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-02-24*

Je suis plombier et beaucoup de pièces et raccords divers + matériels entre le fourgon, l’atelier et bureau.
Je retrouve facilement ce que je recherche.
Pour le stock, connaître en un coup d’œil tout ce qui est en rupture, parfait.
Merci au développeur pour cette super application !

### 5/5 — Great app for keeping an inventory

*2024-01-27, version 1.995*

I used this app for a yacht that I work on. It’s perfect because we carry a lot of spare parts and they are kept in different storage places all over the boat. It has a great feature to be able to take pictures of the parts and the storage areas.

### 5/5 — Works very well

*2023-02-21, version 1.995*

I’ve use this app to keep track of tools and spare parts on my boat for years. Very easy to use to add items, storage locations, etc

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2022-12-09, version 1.995*

Brilliant. Have used it for two years. Unconventional use, as used to accept/store/uplift mail parcels that are sent to me for safekeeping until uplifted. Would be great to be able to rename / edit some of the names of the fields - but of no consequence as works perfectly as is. Thank you for the app. Bill
Still using this app.  Absolutely brilliant.  Thank you.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2022-10-28, version 1.995*

Easy setup and use. Love it.
