Identify gear at a glance
Save photos, descriptions and model notes for the tools and parts you keep.
Tradespeople & contractors / Know what you’ve packed
The right tool.
In the right case.
When the van, shed and workshop all hold useful gear, memory has a lot to do. Record your tools and supplies so you know where you last put them.
A familiar moment
You’re about to buy more fittings. Could they already be in the van?
A small stock of parts can be surprisingly hard to keep straight. A photo inventory helps you check the saved list and find a recorded storage location before you start unpacking cases.
Useful in the everyday
A little structure.
A clearer place to start.
Keep cases tied to locations
Use typed locations such as “Van · rear rack · lower shelf” and update them when a case changes places.
Remember equipment on loan
Record who borrowed an item and an optional return date. Mark it returned when it comes back.
Put it into practice
Start small.
Make it useful.
A short list that matches the physical shelf is a good place to begin.
Choose one tool or parts case
Name it clearly and record where you usually keep it.
Add the contents you need to find
Save photos, names and quantities. Use notes for the details that distinguish similar tools.
Update it when the day changes
Record moves, changed quantities and loans as you pack away. Keep a backup outside the app.
An example to make it concrete
A record you’ll recognize later.
Use your own names and locations. This is an illustrative entry, not a record created in your app.

Inside the working app
Record a borrower and optional return date without losing the item’s inventory record.
The real app screen shown here uses existing camping inventory. The same inventory tools can record your own belongings and storage.
Keep saved details current when things move. Photo-assisted suggestions need review; a QR label looks up what you recorded.
A few practical details
Before you
get started.
Will the saved location update automatically?
Record the new location when you move a case or item. Search shows the location you last entered.
Can I track a tool I lend out?
Use Lend to record the borrower and optional return date, then mark the item returned when it is back.
Where can I check business plan suitability?
Open the app for current plans and confirm the terms fit your trade or contracting work.
