Nest Egg - Inventory

I received several generations worth of random household items, owned many pets, worked professionally with pets, I’ve moved and was paying for costly storage unit. Downsizing was necessary, I couldn’t mentally map where all my items were located. Documenting the important items and their location has let off a lot of stress. Getting items untangled allowed huge steps forward. Letting go of objects is much easier when you realize that you have multiple of it. I was able to drop from a 5x15 storage unit to 5x8 unit saving $180 per month!!! This is a great app for people overwhelmed with clutter, moving or who just received an estate. The add ons are worth it. I still have work ahead, but this app has improved my productivity and emotional wellbeing.

This is a wonderful inventory app. I purchased Nest Egg many years ago after discovering that home insurance may not cover stolen or destroyed belongings if you can’t provide an itemized list with details (serial numbers, model numbers, cost, etc.) so they ‘know for sure’ you actually lost those things. This app is easy to use and has fields for just about everything possible. It will scan barcodes so you don’t have to manually input every little piece of information. You can take pictures of receipts, items, barcodes, whatever to prove you purchased and owned something. You can back up to Dropbox or iCloud and export in HTML or CSV. The app will also track warranty expirations if you want. I try to remember to open this app and add everything new I bring into the house. You’d be surprised how much the little things add up, like computer keyboards, toasters, picture frames… when you think about it, if you had to replace everything in your house or apartment, it’d cost thousands of dollars minimum. Make sure your home or renters insurance pitches in if something happens by inventorying EVERYTHING with Nest Egg.

I love this app! If I had a wish list for future updates, I would like to see the ability to add multiple locations and to add prices for those extra locations. I currently use “location” for stores where I can buy that exact time. Then I use “purchase price” for the best regular (non-sale) price. When I find that exact item at another store, if the price is better than the first store, I put the first store’s name and their regular price in the “notes” field and move the new store to “location” and the new lower regular price to the purchase price. Really, what would help even more would be to leave your currently fields as is and to add 1 permanent “group” of 3 more fields that would be “store”, “store price”, and “store notes” where store notes can be used to type in store sale price or other user requires information. Then add the ability to add more of this “group” where it will automatically give you those same 3 fields listed in the sale order under the first group anytime you click “add group”. This would make it a super awesome app to track and compare regular store prices and even their sale prices (which are usually on some sort of cycle that events repeats - like something at Winn Dixie that is BOGO this week will eventually be BOGO again in the future.) Overall - a great app! I highly recommend it!!! 😊👍
