Countstead is an inventory app for small businesses on iPhone and iPad. Record what comes in and goes out, count what is on the shelf, scan barcodes and see what is running low, even with no internet connection. No account is needed to start. It is built for shops, market stalls, makers, resellers, cafés and kitchens, salons and repair workshops: small businesses that keep physical stock and have outgrown a spreadsheet, without taking on an ERP or warehouse system. WORKS OFFLINE Items, counts, locations and history live on your iPhone or iPad and work without a connection. Your inventory stays on the device unless you turn on sync. SCAN BARCODES Scan a barcode or QR code with the camera to open the item and record stock. Scan a code you have not used yet and Countstead offers to create the item with the code filled in. Codes are read on the device and matched against your own items; nothing is looked up online. RECORD EVERY MOVEMENT Record stock in, stock out, counts, corrections and transfers between locations. Every change is added to the item's history, so the original entry stays visible. Quantities can be whole units or decimals, such as kilograms and litres. SEE WHAT NEEDS ATTENTION Set a low-stock level for each item at each location, and the Low Stock view lists everything at or below it. Add best-before dates to see what is expiring soon. Reports show what your stock is worth at cost. KEEP ITEMS ORGANIZED Give each item a photo, SKU, barcode, unit, unit cost, sale value, notes and tags, and find it by searching as you type. YOUR DATA, BACKED UP A snapshot is a complete copy of your inventory, with quantities, history and photos, saved on this device.
