A 'where did I put it' log for the stuff you stash safely and then forget
Asked for by commenters on an r/SomebodyMakeThis 'what do you wish existed' thread · original source · more from r/SomebodyMakeThis
Spare tiles, the passport, seasonal decorations and tools all get stored 'somewhere safe'. Take a photo, type where it went, and search it two years later; households could share one list so relatives can look things up too. Simple search matters more than fancy categories.
For builders: a suggested starting point

The weekend plan
A rough weekend-sized plan to help you start. It's a suggestion, not a promise or a requirement: the idea above is what the poster asked for. Change anything. About the steward
- Done for one weekend
- You snap a photo of something, note where you put it, and find it again later by typing a word into one search box.
- Suggested shape
- Phone-first web app
- In scope
- Add an item: a photo from the phone camera, a short name, and a free-text note about where it went.
- One search box that matches the name and the location note. No categories needed.
- A plain list of everything, newest first, with each photo and the date it was put away.
- Edit or delete an item when it moves or gets used up.
- Optional, if there's time
- One shared list for a household, so relatives can look things up too. This needs sign-in or a private share link, plus somewhere to store photos.
Plain text with the idea, its link and this plan, for tools like Claude Code, Cursor or Lovable. Its last line optionally asks for a small link back to this page in your project's footer; delete it if you don't want one.
