Know what you have, where it is, and when it's running low. Hamstash is a calm, offline home inventory with Mochi, a hamster who loves stashing things as much as you do. Snap a photo, give it a name, drop it in a Place. Mochi stuffs it into those little cheeks and your Item is saved. That's it. WHY PEOPLE SWITCH TO HAMSTASH • No account and no sign-in. Open the app and start adding. • Works fully offline. Your inventory lives on your iPhone and iPad, not on our server. • Adding Items is never limited. No 20-item wall, ever. • Prefer to pay once? Pro Lifetime is a single purchase. No price hikes. Ever. ORGANIZE IT THE WAY YOUR HOME IS • Places and Spots: Kitchen › Fridge, Garage › Shelf 2, Office › Top drawer. • Quantities with one tap, plus photos, notes, barcodes and expiry dates. • Quick Add with the camera: on-device suggestions name things for you. • Scan a barcode to jump straight to the Item you already own. • Search your whole stash in an instant. NEVER RUN OUT AGAIN • Set a restock level and Hamstash flags anything that's Running Low. • Your Shopping List fills itself. Check things off at the store and they hop back to their Place. • Track expiry dates for the pantry, fridge, medicine cabinet and bathroom shelf.
