QR Tiles

Know what's inside without opening it.

Stick a QR tile on any box, bin or drawer. Photograph what's inside. Later, scan it, search for it, or just ask where you put it.

The QR Tiles Home screen: recent tiles, counts of tiles and photos, and quick actions.
A tile's page: its photos, its labels, and the QR code stuck on the drawer.

Scan

Scan a tile. See what's inside.

Point the camera at a tile and its photos, labels and notes open on the spot. A code it hasn't seen yet can be adopted into a new tile right there.

Any code can open a tile.

A tile has its own printed code, and a vendor QR or a label already on the box can open it too once you scan it there.

Everything saves itself.

There is no Save button. Type, and it is kept.

Photos and labels

Photos do the remembering.

Add photos and videos to a tile. QR Tiles tags what is visible in them, printed words included, so search finds a drawer by what is in it.

Labels in your own words.

Add as many as a tile needs. Search matches every one.

Filters narrow the view.

By group, by zone, by media, or by what still needs attention.

The Tiles page: every tile with its photo, title and labels.
Ask: a question in plain words and the tiles that answer it.

Ask

Ask where you put it.

“Where are the pots?” gets an answer naming the place, not a list of links. Answers come from your tiles, their labels and what their photos show.

Pick who answers.

Keyword matching works on every iPhone, and Apple Intelligence picks the best places on iPhones that have it. Pro can also answer through a hosted service; your question and the matching places' names and labels are sent to it to answer.

Photos help answer.

Matching what photos show finds things nobody typed a label for.

Household

Share a home with the people you live with.

Invite them by AirDrop, Messages or Mail. Everyone sees the same tiles, and changes reach every phone through iCloud.

Only the people you invite.

An invitation admits the person it was sent to. A forwarded link lets nobody else in.

The owner subscribes.

Sharing is part of Plus. The people you invite never pay.

Sharing a home: what an invited member sees, and the invite button.
A drawer label with its QR code, title and photo, previewed before printing.

Print

Print sheets of brand-new QR codes on label stock, 160 to a page, or one bigger label for a single drawer. The preview redraws with every choice.

Sheets mint new codes.

They stay blank until scanned. The first scan turns a code into a tile.

Reprint the exact sheet.

A page that jammed comes back with the same codes, not new ones.

Timeline

See what changed.

Every scan, edit, photo and move lands on a timeline, so you can see what changed, when, and on a shared home, who did it.

Deletes stay gentle.

A deleted tile waits 30 days in Recently Deleted before it is gone.

Your data can always leave.

Back Up Now builds one zip of your photos, videos and spreadsheet-ready files, and restore fills an empty app from it.

The Timeline: recent scans, edits and photos, newest first.

Privacy

Your things stay yours.

QR Tiles keeps your inventory on your iPhone and in your own iCloud. There are no accounts and no servers of ours holding your data.

On your phone, in your iCloud.

Your tiles, photos and labels sync through your private iCloud under your own Apple Account.

No sign-up.

Open the app and start. There is nothing to log into.

You decide what leaves.

Data leaves your phone only when you send it: a backup you share, photos you export to an outside tagging tool, or a question you send to Pro's hosted answers.
