Free Android and iPhone apps to create home inventory for insurance
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners has launched an Android application that lets you use your mobile device to create a home inventory to document your possessions for insurance purposes.
The free app let you easily photograph your stuff, add descriptions and serial numbers, and stores the information electronically for safekeeping. It organizes everything by room and categoy, and creates an e-mailable backup file.
There's also an improved iPhone version, which is also free.
The apps are available through iTunes and the Android Marketplace. Search "NAIC" or "Scr.APP.book" at either site to download them.
Don't have a smartphone or other mobile device? You can still be prepared. Here's a simple, printable home inventory checklist, also from the NAIC.
