An absolutely perfect app for the situation that I needed. Was updating a fire alarm panel that uses barcodes for the serial numbers and had to write them all down to map the system. This app made my job a hundred times easier than what it would have been. I tried at least 3 other apps that have the similar set up but we're not as user friendly as this one. The ability to export via email or even upload to Google Drive is very nice. I'd give it an 9.5 out of 10, certainly user friendly, very useful, and no deceptive ads. A few things I'd like to see for settings but all around a great app. My favorite part, which also kept me in check, was the fact that if I happened to come across a device that I already did it registered that and added another to that so I was able to see I did it. Certainly would be good for doing inventory and keeping track of stock. Thanks for the work here, keep it up!

I hate to blast in here, but when I try to use the link to contact in the app, they don't actually do anything. The email doesn't have a send to filled in when clicked. Either way, I've built a sheet and even if I load random data, I'm unable to hit save or save and close on an entry. Both options do nothing, no error, the only option I can choose is cancel. It used to work great, now not so much

Great for my job but you need to fix an issue with the scanning side. When you click on + to open your fields, and then click on the barcode button the left side, it goes to your camera like normal. However, when you click on the back button (I'm on Galaxy Note 9), it doesn't go back to the fields at all. It goes back to the main list, deleting all the previous data you already added in.

Do you mean when you click back on the detail screen? If so, that's correct as you're not saving, you're therefore canceling the changes
