Keeper
Read full descriptionHide full description
Keeper is a home inventory app — take a photo of anything, tag where it lives, find it instantly. You already know what this feels like. You put something away three weeks ago. A cable. A warranty card. That thing you ordered online. Now you need it — and it is gone. You check every drawer. Every shelf. Every box in the garage. Twenty minutes later you either find it or give up. Keeper ends this. ------------------------------------- HOW IT WORKS ------------------------------------- Before you put something away — take a photo, give it a name, pick a location. That is the whole system. Weeks later, open Keeper, search, and you know exactly where it is. ------------------------------------- LOCATIONS ------------------------------------- Build your home inside Keeper. Create rooms, shelves, boxes, drawers — anything you want, organized in any hierarchy that makes sense to you. Garage → Metal Shelf → Blue Box → Item. Every location gets its own photo so you recognize it at a glance. Nothing is abstract. Everything is visual. ------------------------------------- ITEMS ------------------------------------- Every item has a photo, a name, and optional notes. The photo is not optional. It is the reason Keeper works — you remember what something looks like, even when you cannot remember where you put it. Your visual memory is the most reliable thing you have. Keeper is built around it. ------------------------------------- QR CODES ------------------------------------- Every location in Keeper gets a unique QR code you can print and stick anywhere. Scan it with Keeper or with your iPhone camera and you land directly inside that location — everything stored there, instantly visible. Your physical storage and your phone become one system. ------------------------------------- SEARCH ------------------------------------- Search from inside Keeper across every item and every location. Or skip the app entirely — Keeper indexes your items in Spotlight. Search from your iPhone home screen and jump straight to any item without ever opening the app. ------------------------------------- NO ACCOUNT. WORKS OFFLINE. NO CATCH. ------------------------------------- Keeper is free to download and free to use. No account needed. No internet required. Works completely offline. Your data stays on your device — nothing is sent to the cloud. No ads. No paywalls. No features locked behind a subscription. Everything in the app is available to every user from day one. ------------------------------------- Stop searching. Start knowing. ------------------------------------- Terms of Use: https://digitally.ma/keeper/terms Privacy Policy: https://digitally.ma/keeper/privacy
