I label boxes, "long box" and "box 1", "box 2", etc, and enter the items in the database as I place them in the box. TIP: it really helps to utilize the speech-to-text feature! I rarely have to edit, and when I do, I get a bonus laugh over what it thinks I said.
I have a suggestion: When scanning the code, it would go smoother if the item was automatically entered without the need for us to enter the name separately. Grocery Gadget and My Movies have this feature.
I think its awesome that we can take a snapshot of the individual items. There are a couple of items that benefit in photos, since I have no idea what in the world it is, until I look in the box ("antique massager? What the heck is THAT? Oh! Thats what it is! The thing that looks like a red rolling pin!"). We can also take picture of the storage items like boxes. If descriptive isnt enough, we can see what it looks like or see what is in the storage place.
I love the feature that allows you to nest an entire storage place inside another storage place. This is going to come in real handy after I move!
This app also comes in handy if you have items in storage. You can send your hubby to the storage and tell him where to go! (Now, now! Be kind!) "Its in the blue box marked 497, and its in the red pouch! ... Yes! ...My nail clippers! I need them NOW!"
If you are out of town or overseas and need sensitive information from documents, you can call a trusty friend and tell her exactly where to find it! I cant say enough about this app! Its a little tedious at first, but it gets better as you use it! Enjoy!
