Lent a book, a tool or a game to a friend and lost track of it? BorrowHub keeps a list of every physical item you lend, who has it and when it is due back, so you do not have to rely on memory. Physical items only: no money, no payments. LEND IN A FEW TAPS Tap "+", type what you are lending, pick a friend and Save. A due date is optional. BorrowHub suggests a category from the name you type, or you can take a photo and it suggests the item and its category. GET IT BACK When it comes back, swipe the item left in Items. A full swipe returns it, and Undo is one tap away. Returned items sit under their own heading, newest first. Need to nudge someone? Open the item and tap the bell, or shake your phone while viewing the item. The reminder goes as a push notification, or as a message you share if your friend is not on BorrowHub yet. REMINDERS ON YOUR TERMS Get a notification before something is due (you choose how many days ahead) and a push reminder when it is overdue. FRIENDS BY NAME OR PHONE A name is enough to add a friend. Add a phone number if you want BorrowHub to link them to their account when they join. Tap to Invite sends an invitation, and the friend then shows as Invited. A friend is just your own entry: nobody has to accept anything for you to keep track of what you lent. WORKS OFFLINE Add an item, add a friend or mark something returned with no connection. BorrowHub saves it on your phone and syncs when you are back online. A friend you add offline is created once, without duplicates. STATISTICS AND WIDGET Statistics shows how much you have lent, what is out now, how often things come back and which friends return them on time. The home-screen widget shows your active and overdue counts at a glance. BUILT FOR IPHONE DUO On the iPhone Duo, BorrowHub fills the outer display and uses the system's vertical tab bar. On the opened display in landscape, a list sits beside the details. It also runs on every other iPhone, in light and dark mode. SIGN IN WITH YOUR PHONE NUMBER No email and no password. Links such as borrowhub:// open the right item or friend in the app. PRIVACY Matching your contacts sends hashed versions of their phone numbers, which the server does not store. A phone number you attach to a friend is stored so accounts can link. Your QR "My Code" carries your display name and an account id, never your phone number.

PERFECT FOR - Bookworms who share their collection - Neighbors who swap tools - Friends who borrow chargers, games or kitchen gear - Anyone tired of the "wait, who has my...?" moment Download BorrowHub and always know where your stuff is.
