Stop digging through boxes. Box'd is a box inventory app for moving, storage, renovations, and any pile of “Misc” boxes you’d rather not open twice. Label each box with a number or QR label, add what’s inside by voice, text, or photo, then find the right box later in seconds. WHY YOU NEED BOX'D: • Numbered boxes work: No printer? Write a number on the box with a marker and enter it in the app. • Say what’s inside: Use your voice while you pack and Box'd turns it into a list. • Photos before you tape it up: Snap what’s inside so you can check later without opening the box. • Find things fast: Search for “modem”, “scissors”, or “passports” and Box'd shows which box they’re in. • Flashlight Search: With QR labels, point your phone at a room or storage stack and the right box can light up on your screen. • Share access: Invite your partner, family, mover, or organiser so they can help pack, search, or find the box they need. HOW IT WORKS: • Pick a box. • Write a number on it or scan a QR label. • Say, type, or photograph what’s inside. • Tape it up. • Search for anything later. FLEXIBLE ACCESS: • Your first 5 boxes are free. • Need more? Upgrade when the job gets bigger. • Choose a 3 Month Pass for a move or a monthly or yearly plan for ongoing storage and organising. SUBSCRIPTION PRICING & TERMS Box'd offers two auto-renewing subscription options and a non-renewing 3 month pass to provide you with flexible options to get unlimited access to premium inventory features while you maintain an active subscription: 3 Month Pass: $19.99/one-time Monthly: $7.99/month Yearly: $39.99/year Pricing above is in US dollars, other countries may vary and actual charges may be converted to your local currency depending on the country of residence.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Box'd at none against Birthday Countdown's shown. Birthday Countdown's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
