Use case
Write down what you own before anyone asks you to prove it
Insurers recommend a home inventory, and most people never make one because it sounds tedious. HomeHero makes it a few evenings of work, and the record stays on your device.
Why it matters
- After a fire, flood or break-in, you have to list what you lost, mostly from memory, in the worst week of your year.
- Things you can't name or show are hard to describe to an insurer. Photos and receipts make it much easier.
- Receipts fade, memories blur, and the serial number was on the back of the TV that is now gone.
How HomeHero helps
Photograph each room and item
Go room by room and attach as many photos to each item as you like. The Android app keeps working in a basement with no signal.
Record what an insurer asks for
Make an item type with fields like Serial number, Purchase date and Replacement value, and attach the receipt as a file.
Several items per photo
With Premium, one photo of a shelf section turns into several draft items. You check them and save.
Keep a copy outside the house
A fire or a burglar can take the phone too. Turn on Sync for a copy on our servers, or keep important photos and receipts somewhere else.
