Housekeeper Bee - Storage Manager How many boxes do you have at home with no idea what is inside? Most of us do. We buy things we already own because we forgot where we put them. We dig through stacked totes just to find one item. We climb ladders to check overhead storage we cannot even see into. Housekeeper Bee fixes that. Your iPhone already has everything you need, a camera, NFC reader, barcode scanner, and Bluetooth detector all in one. We just put it to work. Key Features: * Photo Capture - See exactly what is in every box without opening it. * Face ID Login - Fast, secure access every time. * NFC Tag Reading - Tap a box, get its full details instantly. * EAN-13 Barcode Scanning - Scan and track boxes and locations with precision. * iBeacon Detection - Every storage location has a voice. As you move through your home, Housekeeper Bee picks up iBeacon signals tied to both the location and the box sitting there. Walk near your overhead storage, your garage shelf, or that forgotten corner, and the app tells you exactly what is there before you even touch anything. No climbing. No digging. No guessing. No subscription. No cloud. Your data lives on your own server. Requires a Housekeeper Bee Core server. See setup instructions before use. Search HousekeeperBeeWebApp on GitHub for the free Core server setup guide.
