Ammo Box is the must-have app for firearm enthusiasts and shooters, offering an easy way to track ammo inventory, usage, and range sessions. Free to download, with an optional lifetime unlock — no subscription required if you'd rather pay once. SECURITY - On-Device Data Storage: All your data—inventory, range sessions, usage data, and reports—is stored securely on your device. It never touches our servers. - No Personal Details: We do not ask for your name, email, or any other identifiable information since that's none of our business. - Barcode Scanner: The only external calls made are for looking up box details, since we can't store the entire product database (which updates constantly) locally on your device. INVENTORY - Organization: Keep all your ammo boxes neatly categorized by firearm type and caliber/gauge. - Barcode Scan: Quickly add new boxes by scanning the barcode, automatically retrieving all relevant details (manual entry available). - Updates: Effortlessly update round counts with Add, Subtract, Reset, and Remove — or use our Ammo Detector to count rounds for you automatically. - Detailed Logs: View a full history on individual boxes (count changes, notes, creation/removal). - Search: Use the built-in search bar for fast filtering, and add customizable tags to box types to make narrowing down your inventory even easier. RANGE SESSIONS - Effortless Tracking: Add ammo boxes to your range sessions by scanning their barcodes. - Active Management: Update counts, mark boxes as active/inactive, track time spent, and add notes on boxes during your range trip. - Extra Details: Log the range location and optional notes. - Historical Data: Review a comprehensive history of every shooting session. USAGE DATA - Insights and Analytics: Charts that break down current inventory, usage trends, spending, current stockpile value, and projected ammo depletion based on your history. - Exportable Data: Generate inventory, range session, and log reports, exportable as PDF or CSV for easy reference and record-keeping. CUSTOMIZATION - Accent Colors: Choose from a selection of accent colors and icons to make the app your own. https://ammobox.app/terms-of-service
