About this app

Use HouseBook to keep track of all of the inventory in your house or business. Simply input your stuff, take pictures, and HouseBook will remember exactly where they are, what they look like, as well as any other attributes you add. HouseBook stores data on the cloud, so even if your phone is destroyed, your inventory will be available. Your inventory is easily searchable through the app or through the Google Assistant(in select countries/languages). You can share your inventory with housemates and they can add items too. You can even let others view your inventory just by sharing a link! HouseBook is available on Android, iOS, and the Web at https://housebook.io.

Some reasons to use HouseBook:
- To keep a log of your stuff for insurance purposes.
- You run an AirBnB and want to share your house with tenants on a more granular level (i.e. A tenant might not know if the property has pots and pans in the cabinets. HouseBook can tell them.).
- You run a business and want to share your inventory with your clients. i.e. Somebody that runs a gym might want to share the gym equipment on social media so people can see the exact equipment that is in the gym.
- You are a landlord and want to keep a "Before" of your property.
- You are always forgetting where things are.
- You have a smart home and want to be able to say "Hey Google, ask House Book to find my Umbrella" and have it reply "Your Umbrella is in the top shelf of the entryway closet.".
- To help friends/relatives with Dementia find their stuff.
- A Babysitter is coming over and you want them to know where things are at your house.
- Etc.

Remember that HouseBook is for things that have a relatively permanent home. It is not intended to be used for items that tend to move around like your phone, wallet, or keys.

Ratings and reviews

This app is really great! I am moving and i'll be living out of boxes for about 6months. This app has been invaluable to keep track of items as I pack and loan them out to family members. I can add locations like "storage", "dads garage", etc. Then I can add the different boxes or furniture pieces in each location, and then add all of the items/groups of items in each container. I can add tags such as "camping" to easily search all the camping equipment I own. Customer service is fantastic! 😀

Super easy, extremely functional, but needs to be cloud based. The layout is easy on the eye & easy to understand, & I haven't run into any bugs. It's perfect if you are the head of your house's domestic affairs, or you work really closely with your partner (ie sharing phones w/o suspicion), but if you need privacy or to compartmentalize tech yet share work (companies/organizations), it's not cloudbased. It saves to Google drive, but drive isn't good for team-sharing. Desktop version needs work

Purchased premium and discovering a couple of problems. One issue is it doesn't appear to be compatible with Alexa and Google assistant does not seem to work either. And I input several 'containers' only to find that none of them recorded after the first one. I received an error message of 'problem loading'. I have contacted Housebook with a concern and got a response that I could get a refund? I'd just like it to work properly. Expensive app

What's new

Fixes a keyboard bug when adding items that was reported by Tania. Thanks again!
