Our second offering is a Windows Phone application and it has a lot to offer before, during and after your home moving activity. You really need to keep track of what is in those darn boxes and it can take weeks or even months to find some of your good stuff after a move. With Inventory, you take a snap of the box and its contents, add a description and name the box. This App is cool enough to be used for insurance valuations and those broken ornaments will soon be paid for if you used this App in the first place. It can be used for when you lend out your gear and has many more possible uses. We love it and hope that you’ll see fit to try Inventory for yourselves.

Our final App is another Android goody and although Bubble Level may be a one-trick pony, we rather like it anyway.This cool little application will help you to hang those shelves and paintings with 100% accuracy. It’s not complicated and the sweet graphics add a little sex appeal to a rather mundane activity.
