About

Info Locker

Features
Read full description

Home maintenance and repairs are often made more difficult because simple, basic information wasn't noted or photo'd at the time. Or perhaps this was done, but the photos lost in with thousands of others on your phone. Info Locker gives an easy way to organise and retrieve this (boring, but still useful?) information when you need it, with a simple, visual interface.
