Remember Where You Stored Things Like
x My boyfriend and I live in an apartment with two bedrooms and two exceptionally small wardrobes. The nearest ones are big enough to hold our clothes, but when it comes to other things to put in the closet, these things are hidden all over the house.
At least once a week I ask, “Where has X gone?” moment, and we spend a little time looking for our storage bays and eventually the garage downstairs (where, frankly, most of our belongings are located) until we manage to find it. Sortly is an application designed to make your search easier.
With the app, you take a snapshot of what you store where, and then you can search for it later. This is not a substitute for organizing things, but simply a way to make it easier to remember where you organized it.
Obviously, you are not going to use this to organize your entire home, but for some things it can be very useful. For example, if you have a decent collection of whiskey but only want to leave a few bottles outdoors, you can keep the rest in a cupboard, but still have easy access to find out what you have and where it is. Or if you need to keep an eye on clothes for a different season, or that kitchen appliance that you only need to take out for Christmas … think about the things that you definitely want to keep, but can also use the quick access to them.
In the application, you can download up to 100 items for free. If you need to track more, it costs $ 5 a month to subscribe to the service.
