For Keeping Track of All Those Tech Manuals: Centriq

Centriq on iPhone
What We Like

  • Find product manuals for your electronics.

  • Store product manuals and product information on your phone, not in a drawer.

What We Don't Like

  • Can't search manuals and documents by keyword.

Scan your product's barcode or enter the product yourself, and you'll see product manuals, maintenance information, how-to instructions, and more about your product. Plus, it's saved inside the app for future use.

You can download Centriq for both iOS and Android for free, but keeping more than five manuals up to date will require a subscription.

Best Home Organization App for Organizing Your Pantry: Pantry Check

Pantry Check app on iPhone
What We Like

  • See all expiration dates for all food items in one app.

  • Links for purchasing online are available for each food item.

What We Don't Like

  • Adding new pantry items takes time.

  • Really have to be dedicated to keeping information up to date.

With Pantry Check you start by scanning your item's barcode to see a photo, product information, and more. You can see expiration details for each item and add items to a shopping list for your next grocery trip. Declutter your pantry by receiving alerts on what to throw away in real time.

Pantry Check is free, but if you need to keep track of a lot of items, you'll need to pay an upgrade fee.

Best Declutter App for Keeping a Household Inventory: Sortly

Sortly on iPhone
What We Like

  • Track large collections without purchasing duplicates.

  • Store important information about items in the home.

What We Don't Like

  • Adding items takes time, especially for larger inventories.

  • This is aimed at businesses more than for homes.

Decluttering has a lot to do with never buying things you don't need. The Sortly app allows you to create an inventory of your home from your furniture to special collections. For example, use this app to keep track of your movie collection to make sure you don't purchase a duplicate. The opportunities are endless.

Sortly is easy to use and has a simple design for people of all ages. The app is free to download for iOS and Android devices with the option of in-app purchases.
