Keep track of your games and have them with you all the time using this app!
The app "Inventory: Game Collection" allows you to keep track of the games you own. You can filter by platforms or status and create tags to further organise your collection. An import function makes transition from other solutions or spreadsheets easy.
To make your games really stand out, "Inventory" has a sleek, non-intrusive design while offering essential features. When making it, I aimed for an experience that makes it fun to look at your collection and presents your games in a beautiful way.
Adding your games is really easy, just use the search-feature and "Inventory" pre-fills information like the game's release date and cover image. Of course it's also possible to customise any information and add your own cover image.
You can also do a bulk import of many games, using a CSV-file. If you already have cover images for your games, you can import them as well. This makes it easy for you to transition to this app from another solution or a spreadsheet you may already have.
I want you to be in control of your data and not be locked-in with this app. That's why you can easily make a full backup of all your games to a simple spreadsheet, including cover images! If at any time you would rather switch to another solution, or want to make a backup of your data, just export it!
All your games are synchronized to iCloud, so you can use the app across devices as well.
FEATURES
- Simple, sleek design. Looks nice in dark-mode and light-mode.
- Two ways of looking at your collection: in a list (more information) and as tiles (bigger covers).
- Search the internet when adding new games and pre-fill information.
- Organise your collection by platforms, status or tags.
- Add "moments" with cool screenshots you took or to note down your thoughts on a game.
- Look back at previous years with the Rewind-feature and decide your game of the year!
- Add metadata for the region of a game: Important for collectors!
- Import lots of games through a CSV-file.
- Stay in control of your data with the export-feature.
- Use across devices with full iCloud sync.
I plan to further improve the app and add more features. Please tell me any feedback or wishes you have and I'll try to include them. You can contact me via the app.
PRICING
The app is free and offers all features for adding up to five games. If you like the app, I'd appreciate if you would support development and server-costs by buying any of the included in-app purchases - you can choose yourself how much you want to pay. Any of them unlocks adding unlimited games.
Please note that all of the game covers shown in the screenshots above are merely to demonstrate the functionality of the app and all trademarks and copyrights belong to their respective owners.
Today my boyfriend and I spent HOURS searching for a great app to log our game collections and sort them by completion status. This app by far looks the best and I love how many platforms are available. I only wish there were sections for games like “abandoned” or “open-ended” for those like Animal Crossing or Super Mario Maker 2 where the game never really ends, but you may be finished with it. Also, a notes section in the game entries would be great so you could mark down thoughts or if you own a game complication you could put down what games you have beat on the game. Love the great work! Thank you!

Thanks for your rating & review, glad you like the app! :)Yeah, I was also thinking how to handle open ended games. You can actually hide them from your backlog (long-tap on the game)!Adding notes shouldn’t be an issue, I’ll look into it!
Amazing App

First off - this app is exactly what I’ve been looking for for eons. It looks great and shows the info I want. My only complains are minor and would boost this to five stars. First - there needs to be a way to add multiple titles at once. Adding a large collection by hand is a pain. Second add support for iPad and MacOS. That would make this app even better if I can use it on every device I own and made specifically for said device. Finally - add in the ability to price your collection. Those are the only things keeping it from a solid 5 star in my book.

Update 8/29: You can now import games from a CSV-file!Original answer: Hey! Thank you so much for your review and suggestions! Actually, two of your suggestions are already on my roadmap. I want to release an easy-to-use bulk import of games to make it easier to switch from other solutions or an Excel-table. And after that, port the app to iPad/Mac and make use of the bigger screen estate and native features. Please look forward to the next updates! :)
Randomize option

It would be good if you put an Randomizer option from a list
Developer Response
Hey, thanks for the suggestion! I guess you mean a feature that randomly suggests a game to play? I’ll look into it!
This update brings a native macOS version of the app.
Previously, Inventory ran its iPad-version on Mac. The new native version improves usability by using native Mac features and UI patterns.
There are also a few other improvements:
- You can now add, edit and delete regions, developers, publishers and tags as well as manage them from a central list (via "Library management")
- Images can be added from files on your device as well, in addition to the photos library, and via drag & drop
- MacOS gets an improved image viewer that opens in a separate window
- The game search should be easier to use now
- Performance is improved, in particular when having a lot of large images in "Rewind"
- Game covers and thumbnails should appear sharper now
Thanks for your feedback and I hope you continue enjoying using my app! :)
