Gun and gear inventory app? Freeware etc?

Anybody know of an app or freeware that I can use to inventory my stuff? It would be great if I could add pics and columns for different details.

Since it was so freakin cold yesterday and everything was closed, I spent part of the day taking pics and listing details serial numbers approx value etc on my guns. Need to do knives next since I still have a number of custom knives. Then reloading equipment. Optics, and shooting and hunting gear. Not only for insurance purposes but if anything happened to me my wife would have some place to start.

It's terrific!

 

ETA: It's worked great for me. Some folks have had issues with product support. YMMV. You can download a free version which handles up to 10 firearms and has limited functionality for ammo, etc.

I just use an excel database sheet. But, looking at this ^^, I might switch!

I looked at this, and looked some more, and without trying it, am not sure I know the answer to this question:

Where does it keep the data?

Data is kept locally in an encrypted database. You can also store that as a backup in the cloud (Dropbox, etc) if you wish

You might look at https://keepersecurity.com/vault/. It's a password manager app but can store much more. I have tons of data stored in it. If you but a yearly membership you can get on up to 5 devices. All will open on the same master password. Data entered sync's to every device and all is encrypted. You can download documents also. I have all my firearms information stored in mine. Have been using Keeper for 5 or 6 years now and it works perfectly. It's not made specifically for firearms but it will work very well.

Im gonna need capability for more than 10. A lot more.

I dont have excel but Ill keep looking. I can store the jpgs with it separately if needed.

What platforms do you want supported? Windows, MAC, Unix, IOS, Android, etc

 

Ive seen older inventory systems that have become free but no longer updated yet with features to do what you want. Others have had author disappear a couple of years post purchase.

 

Ive got an old one based on a Visual Basic app but as time goes on, it can get a little flakey once in a while.

 

Open source look at open office or libre office. Close enough to Excel and so far have not had a file I could not open in any of those.

This is what I use:

I use it primarily so if I kick the bucket, my wife knows what I own and what it's worth when it comes time to get rid of it. They do have a free version too, but I like using the ammo tracking function so I can keep track of what I need to restock. Here's the free version:
