StockEasy is the all-in-one inventory management app designed for small shop owners and retail businesses. Manage your products, track sales, handle purchases, and monitor profit -- all from your iPhone or iPad. KEY FEATURES: -- Point of Sale -- Quickly create sales orders with barcode scanning. Support for cash, WeChat Pay, Alipay, bank card, credit, and mixed payments. Print or share PDF receipts. -- Inventory Management -- Add products with photos, barcodes, and categories. Give a product the names you actually call it by, so searching, asking or speaking finds it either way. Track stock levels in real time with low-stock alerts. Perform stock checks and adjustments with full audit trail. -- Purchase Orders -- Record supplier purchases, track payables, and manage supplier contacts. View purchase history and trends over time. -- Customer & Supplier Management -- Maintain customer and supplier profiles. Track receivables and payables with aging reports. Record payments and view transaction history. -- Reports & Analytics -- Sales reports, profit reports, purchase reports, and inventory reports. View rankings for top-selling products, most profitable items, top customers, and slow-moving stock. Export to Excel or CSV (Pro) — in Excel, barcodes and order numbers stay text, so none loses a leading zero. -- Quick Query -- Ask in your own words -- "stock", "this month's sales", "who owes me" -- and StockEasy reads the answer straight out of your own records. It is a keyword lookup over your own data, not a chatbot: no model, no server, nothing sent anywhere. Type real customer names and phone numbers if you want to; they never leave the phone. Free, no upgrade needed. -- Tax, Wherever You Are -- Set your own rates and StockEasy itemises them on receipts and PDFs, with your tax number and the document heading your country expects. Prices can include tax (Australia, New Zealand, the UK, the EU, Japan, China) or have it added at the register (the United States, Canada). A per-rate report shows what you collected, returns already taken off. Starting points for eight regions, all of them editable. -- More Than One Shop -- Multi-Store is a separate purchase, not part of Pro — a single-site shop should not pay for branches it will never open. Each shop keeps its own sales, purchases, stock movements, income and expenses, while products, customers and suppliers stay shared. Switch from the home screen. -- Roles and Staff PINs -- On the shop's device, staff pick their name and enter a PIN; Owner, Manager and Staff each see what their role allows. PINs stay on this device. StockEasy does not sync between devices. -- Privacy First -- No account required. No sign-up, no data collection, no third-party analytics, no ads. Ever. StockEasy has no servers and never sends your shop data anywhere -- it works with the network switched off. Voice input uses Apple's on-device speech recognition. Because nothing syncs, the backup file is your copy: it is free, holds all your records, and you can export it any time. -- Free vs Pro -- The free version runs a shop end to end: checkout, purchases, stock checks, multiple warehouses, member cards, reports, quick query, voice input, and backup files. Pro adds four things -- unlimited products (the free version holds 50), up to 15 team members on this device (free: one besides you), unlimited custom fields (the free version holds 3), and export (Excel/CSV, profit report PDF). Pro is available monthly, yearly, or as a one-time lifetime purchase. A note on tax: StockEasy prints what you configure — your rates, itemised and labelled, with your registration number. Whether that satisfies your tax office is your call; we do not claim compliance with any country's rules. Tax on your own purchases is not tracked, so a return that also claims credits will need those from elsewhere. In English and Simplified Chinese.
