how it works

Every feature, in depth.

This is the same walkthrough built into the app itself (Settings → User Guide), expanded here so you can see it before you install anything.

01 · orientation

Getting around

Four tabs, and you've seen the whole app.

Home

Recent and favorite collections, right where you left off — plus a search icon that reaches everything you've ever entered.

Collections & Groups

Collections are where your stuf actually lives. Groups just bundle related collections together — "Homes and Cars," say — so you can jump between them as one unit.

Settings, Backup & Restore, your account, and the in-app User Guide this page is drawn from.

02 · building blocks

Creating a collection

Pick a type from the built-in library and myStuf already knows what fields it needs. Custom fields on top of that mean a template never quite has to fit; you can always add the one field it's missing.

Glucose Readings
Grocery List
Home Inventory

03 · getting stuf in

Adding items

Fill in fields by hand, or point the camera at a receipt, VIN, medication bottle, insurance card, or book cover and let myStuf read it. When you're moving fast, Rapid Add walks you through one guided field at a time instead of a full form — built for adding several things in a row without losing your place.

05 · organizing

Groups & Favorites

Groups bundle related collections — vehicles and their insurance, a property and its maintenance log — so they show up together instead of scattered across a long list. Favorite anything, from a single collection to a whole group, and it stays pinned near the top of Home.

06 · your data

Import, export, back up

Bring existing data in from a spreadsheet, export any collection back out the same way, and let automatic backups handle the rest. See the myStuf feature tour for the full picture on backup and account sync.

This page is the deep dive — the myStuf feature tour is the fast version.
