### 5/5 — Top!

*2026-07-06*

Die App ist super. Ich würde mir zwar das Feature wünschen Labels in der App generieren und Drucken zu können aber auch ohne dieses Feature lässt sich die App hervorragend nutzen!

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für deine Bewerbung, es freut mich, dass dir die App gefällt! Den Feature Vorschlag hab ich für die Zukunft mit aufgenommen.

### 5/5 — Auf neue API Anpassen

*2026-05-07*

Die App ist eigentlich super - nur muss sie auf die neue API angepasst werden damit sie wieder brauchbar ist.

-> Der Fehler lag auf meiner Seite, der Entwickler war sehr hilfsbereit und konnte bei der Losung des Problems helfen 👍

**Developer response:** Edit: Vielen Dank, dass du dich per Mail an mich gewandt und deine Rezension angepasst hast.

Danke für das Feedback. Ich nutze die neuste Server Version v0.25.0 vom 13. April und kann die App ohne Einschränkungen nutzen und ich habe sogar die neue Collections Funktion bereits implementiert. Können Sie mir bitte beschreiben welches Feature nicht funktioniert und Server Version nutzen Sie? Dann kann ich damit versuchen den Fehler nachzustellen.

### 5/5 — Works perfectly

*2026-03-24*

Works perfectly with my HomeBox Container installed on my QNAP NAS!

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot, I‘m happy you like it!

### 5/5 — Excellent for controlling my TrueNAS app

*2026-02-12*

So far, the app has been great! The developers are quick to add/fix issues which is amazing. This app makes keeping track of my home inventory a breeze.

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot, I‘m happy you like it!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-01-26*

I saw one 3-star review here regarding translation and an IAP. I thought I would just come and say I love this app. Works well with the server and I don’t see anything about needing to pay at least not anymore. I can access the whole app without paying and there is a donation section. I haven’t completely explored it and I only just started using Homebox yesterday but so far everything I have done I can also do in this app. I guess the only thing I notice is there is no barcode/QR code scanner that is obvious to me. That would be useful to be built into this app.

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for your feedback, I‘m happy you like it! I have added a QR code scanner to the top left toolbar in the overview tab with the recent update.

### 3/5 — A decent option

*2025-10-10*

Overall the app seems to work well, though it does not respect the language setting on your device (with some dialog titles seemingly hardcoded in German) and doesn’t respect the currency setting from your server (it is always in EUR, not whatever is set such as USD). I can’t speak to the editing or adding workflows since it is fully locked behind an AIP, a trial of one or two items would be worthwhile to I see if the functionality is worth $7.

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for your feedback!
I fixed the translation and the currency is now loaded from your server.

The IAP is removed, you can use the app for free if you like.

May I ask if you could send me an email to homebox@herres.solutions to resolve the translation issues? Thanks in advance!
