Need a simple way to organize your gear? This handy tool helps you easily manage your devices with a flexible database. It’s perfect for keeping track of everything from serial numbers and hardware specs to warranty details and location. Whether you’re on the go with your iPhone or iPod, or using your iPad at work, you’ll have all your important information right at your fingertips. After 15 years on the App Store, we've decided to change our app name because several other apps have copied our original name. After a free trial, a subscription is required to add new records, but you'll still be able to access all the records created during the trial period. Note: this is a database for your equipment, it does not physically "track" the location of your devices. A feature to store the GPS data may come in a future update. The application is covered by the standard Apple Terms of Use (EULA) http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/appstore/dev/stdeula

On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
