Where did you put the winter blankets? The spare charger? The box of documents you swore you'd remember? NookPin answers that in two seconds. Pick a floor plan of your home, storage unit or garage, then pin your things exactly where they actually are. No more opening every box. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose a plan — studio, 1+1, 2+1, 3+1, 4+1, 5+2 duplex, detached house, garage, basement, attic, shelved depot or container. Or upload a photo of your own plan. 2. Tap the spot where something lives and add it: name, category, photo, notes. 3. Need it later? Search by name, or open the room and see everything pinned inside. BUILT FOR REAL HOMES • Multi-floor plans — swipe between ground and upper floors • Rename every room to match your actual place • 30+ categories: boxes, clothes, tools, documents, seasonal, keepsakes, valuables and more • Room-by-room pin list, so you can scan a whole floor at a glance • Pinch to zoom, drag to move, tap to re-pin • Sort by newest, name or room • Four accent colours, English and Turkish PERFECT FOR Moving house · Packing and unpacking · Storage units and lockers · Garages and basements · Seasonal storage · Shared flats · Anyone who owns more boxes than memory COMPLETELY OFFLINE No account. No sign-up. No server. Your plans, photos and notes stay on your device and are never uploaded or tracked. NookPin works on a plane, in a basement, anywhere. FREE AND PRO Free includes one space and 20 items — enough to map a real home and see if it fits you. NookPin Pro unlocks unlimited spaces and unlimited items, so you can map your home, your storage, your office and the summer house all at once.
