Very nice app that is cleanly designed and has great options for organizing and cataloging information. I have a small collection I’ve inventoried with this so far and have run into no issues. Really enjoying the analytics on purchasing and pricing. It also will make a great resource if I ever decide to sell a part of my collection down the road as all pertinent information is stored, in detail, in one place.

If I was to improve the app, I wish there was an option to adjust the background color, maybe something like a “dark mode” instead of all bright white. But that’s purely preference and idk how difficult it would be to add something like that.

Overall, if you’re looking to organize and record information on your growing collection this app is a great choice. Be aware that you can only add 3 firearms with the free version and then would need to upgrade to the full version for $4.99 to add more. This seems like a bargain given the design and functionality of this app. Saw some critical reviews complaining that charging for an app is “un-American” haha considering yourself entitled to someone else’s labors seems pretty un-American. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch”. What better way to support the firearms community, and ensure we continue to see quality solutions to our needs, than by supporting someone else who shares our passion and purchasing their work for less than you’ll probably spend on lunch next Monday.

So glad you like the app and find it useful! I really appreciate you taking the time to write such a nice review.

I try to add the most-requested features, so I appreciate your suggestion.

I know it takes time to enter your data in the app, so be aware that the app does not automatically back up your data. All data is stored on your device. It is your choice of whether you back it up or not.

If you don’t want to use iCloud or iTunes, I included iTunes File Sharing so that you can keep a copy of the databases on your computer. That way you’ll have a copy of the data in case you have an issue with your device and can’t restore from backup.

For details on your options for backing up your data, go to the Options & Support section of the app and select Instructions for Backing up Data.

Thanks again for taking the time to write such a nice review!!

I have used this app for past year or so. I am able to track all purchases with serial numbers and prices in one place. Photo capability for items and for range documentation is very useful. For legal reasons I like to keep track of all my training and education both in words and photos. I have over 20,000 rounds documented in the app. Also, instructions were very clear on how to back up files to computer via ITunes file sharing. This makes me feel more secure in case Iphone is lost or damaged. I have almost 2GB of Dara backed up. Further, support is unbelievably good. I had a few device issues and developer has responded always in a timely fashion and fixed some minor display issues. I highly recommend signing up for premium plan for 99cents/month. Very reasonable and the documentation saved could well provide the difference in defending use of force case. As a physician, retired x 2 years, I truly understand the importance of documentation in providing proof of training and education and practice. Old phrase: if it isn’t documented, then it has not been done!!

Great app, very worth the price. I am a very detail oriented person and very persnickety. Get this app and you will not regret it. Be safe.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed review! I’m so glad you like the app and find it useful!

Also, I really appreciate you supporting the app by signing up for the Premium Features Subscription!

At the time I found this app, I had only one rifle, had sold a rifle previously, and had two handguns on order. I so glad I found it before getting the handguns. It was a long process, but I was able to get ALL of the relevant data fields entered, so the app currently contains my entire gun record, aside from previous range visits. Going forward, I know I’m gonna love tracking ammo through each gun and range results. The accessories function is great, but it’d be nice if the accessories were listed vertically instead of in one paragraph separated by commas.

Additionally, I have one recommendation for document uploading, so that I can attach PDFs of my purchase records and receipts for each gun and accessory. At present, I’m using one of the 5 available image slots for each gun to store a photo of the purchase record from the dealer. It works, but it takes up a slot I’d like to reserve for the gun (1 angled photo, 2 flat profile photos, 1 photo disassembled, and 1 photo looking down the sights). Also, the images are cropped in a square. It would really be awesome if you could upload an actual PDF of these documents, maybe like 5 documents per gun.

Thanks for buying the app and taking time to write such a nice review! I know it takes quite a bit of time to enter everything, so please make sure you are baking up your data. You can use iTunes File Sharing to keep a copy of the databases on your computer, that way if you have any issues and can’t restore from backup, you won’t lose your data. If you go to the Options & Support section of the app and select Instructions for Backing up Data you can view all your options. Thanks again!
