ALMOST perfect

The only real issue I’ve had so far (I’ve only been using it for about a day) is that when you’re in the middle of entering new gear, if you exit the app for even a little bit, the app resets, so you have to save everything every time you exit the app to do some quick researching for the gear. That’s the only issue I’ve found so far. Something I would like to see in an update (in addition to fixing the problem) would be a wishlist option and an option to share the a ‘gear’ or ‘kit’.

Meh so far.

This app would be slightly useful to "keep track of my gear" if I felt I had just so much stuff that I was always losing lenses or bodies. But that's only assuming that the search feature returned useable results. It simply seems to list everything EVER made from a manufacturer instead of smartly searching exactly what I'm typing. Let's say Fujifilm for example. I type "Fujifilm 16-55" and ht enter. The app should be narrowing the thousands of "Fujifilm" results to reflect the next entered data of "16*", however doesn't seem to. So you still have lots of scrolling to do with the app when searching for your gear. It simply takes far too much time when what you're seeing is just thousands of unrelated things in the list with no results that are close to what you wanted. Ended up just using my trusty excel spreadsheet in the end.

iPad version

I have been using this app for about two years now and it is a great way for me to keep track of my gear and costs. The only thing I would like to have is a ipad version. Because the app shares the information between my ipad and phone I use my ipad for inputting my information. I use my ipad in landscape orientation with a remote keyboard and the app does not rotate.An ipad version would be a great addition to a great app.

App works perfectly fine, these negative reviews are just silly.

App works totally fine. Does everything you need to catalog your gear (hence the name i suppose) and I can tell a lot of thought and consideration was put into its design. This app sort of has 2 other functions that you wouldnt immediately assume from what its being advertised for. One is a dedicated tab to helping you insure your gear, which depending on how you feel about that can go either way; and the other is two update users of videos and user info from the Fro himself. At best, if you are a fan of his content and need something to catalog your gear, this app is perfectly fine. However if you're not a fan of Jared, the app still works just as well for cataloguing gear. You just never have a reason to scroll past the first tab. I never really write reviews but I felt it was my obligation to say something after seeing how stupid and unnecessarily negative some of these reviews were. I almost didnt download this app because it was so bad. Its a shame, i see it as something well made and genuinely useful.

Search Feature is Horrible

This is a fantastic idea for an app! But man, what I thought was going to be a 15-30 minute job turns out to be a lot longer. The “search” feature doesn’t really do anything. I type in “Godox” and have to scroll down at least 20-30 items before I see the word “Godox” on the list. I am only three items in and totally frustrated with trying to find equipment. I haven’t even really tried the other features because I am so frustrated with the simplest task of searching...please let us know when you get that fixed and then it might actually be useable.

Great but CSV export broken

I’ve had this app for at least 5 years. It moves with you from phone to phone because it’s cloud based (that’s why you create an account). The insurance part hasn’t worked in years so even if you want to get insurance through the app, you can’t. I’ve found out in the last 2 weeks that exporting your data as CSV file is useless because the file will be missing some of your gear. I have 75 items in the app but it only shows 62 when exporting. This actually makes it useless for reporting purposes because now you have to go into a spreadsheet yourself and add things manually to the spreadsheet. This completely defeats the purpose of the app. I tried contacting the developers through their site and got no reply. It’s a shame because otherwise the app is really great.

Easy to use and a great idea

The other Jared made a great app. It's super easy to use. It's nice to have all of my equipment listed in one place with serial numbers and value. I've submitted for an insurance quote. It's really something I need to do. My homeowner's insurance covers me if something happens at my house, but I shoot in some seedy parts of Baltimore and DC. There's certainly ample opportunity for my gear to be stolen or for me to have to hit someone in the head with my 24-70 G Master, which has a weight similar to a cinder block. You've made the investment in the gear. Invest 15 minutes in keeping track of it and maybe insuring it. Great app for pros and people that shoot in jpeg. Jared Skarda

What's with the inventory of items?

Searching for "Mavic 2 Pro" and nothing comes up. Really? I mean, Mavic Pro comes up, and every kind of filter set, off-brand case, accessory, etc. But I still can't find Mavic 2 Pro. This has happened with a number of gear searches so far. Having to manually input so many things is really killing the buzz for me on this app, Jared! I like the features and having things in one place but without a more seamless input system is going to be very hard to put all my gear into this app.

I would never be suckered into a subscription based model or use a database cloud version only. I use ninox which is a database that you can store on your phone , iPad or the cloud if you chose to, I also use OneNote. However you could also use File Maker Pro. All those allow you to store your information locally or in the iCloud and your not forced into a subscription model. My two favorites are OneNote and Ninox it’s available on iPhone and iPad versions and desktop version for MacBook. If the Developer made a standalone app I would purchase on the basis of locally stored information and cloud as an option. Good luck with your subscription model

Almost there

It is a convenient place to store information. A photo of the camera or lens, a record of the serial number and a photo of same, and the price paid. It is also possible to save a photo of the receipt, which I did for all the ones I could find. The problem, though, is that it saves that photo at such low resolution that it is nearly impossible to read. Fix that and it would be five stars for me.
