In this home
A sample home. Type your own, like “drill” or “where are the coats”.
Made for what you use twice a year.
The things you use every day are easy to find. Passports, spare keys, tax papers and the camping tent are not, and you need them at the worst moment.
A home inventory should fix that, but most never survive the first hour of typing, and the answers stay in one person’s head. StashEm asks for one sentence or one photo. Then the whole house knows.
Everything your home needs to remember.
Save it in a sentence, find it in a second, and share it with everyone at home.
Say it once
Type or say “passport in the top drawer” and it’s saved to the right place.
Just ask Siri
Save and find with your hands full, and the app never opens.
Snap a shelf
One photo of a shelf or drawer, and each thing on it is saved. Your first shelf is free.
One shopping list
What runs low lands on a list the whole house shares, with what’s already at home.
Shared with family
Dad saves the passport and Mom can find it. Joining a household is always free.

Scan a box and see everything inside without lifting it off the shelf.

| A whole shelf | One photo | Line by line | Usually item by item | No |
| Asking later | Siri or search, spelling forgiven | Exact words only | Search by item details | Ring it or see it on a map |
| The whole family | One Family purchase covers everyone | Free to share | Usually priced per person | Varies by device |
| Shopping list | Built in, from what runs low | A separate note | Stock counts for a business | No |
| Passports and papers | Yes | Yes | Yes | Not practical |
| Live location | No, it remembers where things were put | No | No | Yes |
| What it costs | Free, or Plus once | Free | Usually a subscription | Tags and batteries |

Questions people ask.
What is StashEm?
A home inventory app for iPhone and iPad that works like a shared memory. Say where you put something, and ask for it later by search or Siri. The answer gives the room, the place, who put it there and when.
Is StashEm free?
Yes. Saving and finding are free, with no limit on things, rooms or places. That includes Siri, your first shelf and your first shopping trip. StashEm Plus is an optional one-time purchase: $9.99 in the US for you, or $14.99 as Family for your whole household.
What’s the difference between Plus and Family?
Plus gives you every Plus feature on your own. Family is the same features for everyone: you can invite people, everyone who joins your household gets Plus, and it’s shared with your Apple family. Started with Plus? Upgrade to Family in the app for $7.49 in the US.
Is there a subscription?
No. Plus and Family are each paid for once. Joining a household you’re invited to is always free.
Can my family share one home inventory?
Yes. Inviting people needs StashEm Family. Joining is free, and everyone who joins has Plus too. It works for family and roommates alike.
Does StashEm have a shopping list?
Yes. Keep count of things like coffee or toilet paper, and what runs low goes on a list the household shares, with how many are at home and where. Your first shopping trip is free; adding to the list after that comes with Plus.
Can I hide something from the rest of my household?
Yes. Mark a room, place or thing Only me. It’s stored in your own iCloud space, and nobody else can see it, including the household’s owner.
Does StashEm use cloud AI?
No. Photos, documents and speech are read on your device and never sent to a cloud AI service. Requests you make through Siri are handled by Apple.
Does StashEm work offline?
Yes. Everything is saved on the device first, so saving and finding work without a connection. Changes sync through iCloud when you’re back online.
Do I need an account?
There’s no StashEm account. You do need an iCloud account to keep your household in sync.
Can I ask Siri where something is?
Yes, with no setup. Say “Where’s my passport in StashEm?” and Siri tells you where it is, who put it there and when, without opening the app.
How do QR labels work?
Print a sheet of labels and stick one on each box, bin or drawer. Scanning a label opens that box on the screen with everything inside. Printing new labels comes with Plus; scanning is always free.
Can StashEm help with an insurance claim?
It gathers photos, serial numbers, receipts and values into an insurance report, room by room with totals. Building and previewing it is free; printing and sharing the PDF comes with Plus. Check what your insurer requires.
Is StashEm the same as an AirTag?
No. An AirTag finds a tagged object’s live location. StashEm remembers where things were put, including things you’d never tag, like passports and tax papers. The two work well together.
Does it work on iPad or Android?
StashEm runs on iPhone and iPad with iOS or iPadOS 26 or later, and is optimized for iPhone Duo. There is no Android version or web app.
Free to remember. Plus, once.
Saving and finding are free, with no limit on things or rooms. Plus and Family are each bought once, not a subscription.
