Home

Home is the first screen: what needs you, then where things are. On a phone it is one column in this order; on a computer, locations and recent activity sit on the left, shortcuts and Insights on the right.

• Get started: one line with your progress and the next step. The arrow opens the steps; × hides it for good (Undo in the message; Help → Get-started checklist brings it back). It goes away by itself when every step is done.
• Needs you: six counts, always in the same place: Overdue, Due, Expiring, Lent out, Uncertain and Low stock. A zero is greyed out, not hidden. Borrowed in and Long unseen appear when they have something. On a computer each one names its most urgent item. Tap one to open that list, already filtered. Lent out shows where Lending is on, Low stock where Consumables is on.
• Shortcuts: Capture, Scan a label, Log a reading (when something has a meter) and Add a thing.
• Locations: a card per location with a small map drawing, its things, places and value (where Money is on and you can see amounts), and what is flagged there, such as “2 things need a place” or “1 overdue”. Tap a card to open the location.
• Recent activity: the latest 3 on a phone, 5 on a computer; Added, Moved and Checked narrow them, and All activity opens the full list. Photos to review shows what waits in the Inbox.
• Insights (where Money is on): what you spent on things this year so far, with the years before it, and the value of what you own. Each currency on its own line, never converted. It says which locations it leaves out.

On your first day Home shows the welcome, Create your first home with the steps after it, your Personal location, and the shortcuts that already work.

Two details the counts keep honest: each count equals the length of the list it opens (tap it and the numbers match), and “today” is each location’s own day — a location past midnight still counts what is due there as due.

What each count, shortcut and card opens is covered in everyday use; the money view has a page of its own (Insights).
