Frequently Asked Questions

Spaces are a way to organize your items and services by location (ex: house, storage unit etc.). Your space can also have unlimited spaces inside it, which can be your garage or rooms in your home.

Think of My Life as a View All page on your computer, where you can see everything you own regardless of how it is organized within Spaces. The search bar at the top of the screen can be used to quickly find something, and if you would like to filter your items by location then you can select one of the Spaces at the top of the screen to only see the items attached to the Space.

Spaces are much more powerful than a folder – which is essentially just a container to hold a group of items. When you enter a Space, you will see 6 buttons (like the ones you see on Items) entitled Notes & Photos, Reminders, Documents, Warranties, Receipts, and Linked Services. Under these buttons you can view all the relevant information for anything inside the space (ex: the appliances in your house) as well as anything attached directly to the space. Attaching directly to the space can be useful when the receipt or note is not for something you need to create a whole separate item for, but still need the relevant information. This can be paint colours for your home, or a receipt for flooring for your basement. 

From the My Life page, or inside a Space, click the blue plus button at the bottom of the screen where you will see “Item” and “Folder”. If you tap on Folder simply add a name and click Create, you will then be able to add new Items to it, or move existing Items into your new Folder.

To add an Item, once you tap on the button, you will be able to select a category. If there is not a standard category that matches your item, you can create a new one. You will then be prompted to create a purchase receipt, and then can create your Item.

From the My Life page, or the main page for one of your Spaces, click the blue plus button at the bottom of the screen. You will then see a button “Quick Add”, which once tapped on brings you to a screen where you can add multiple Items at the same time. You can attach photos of your Item, select a category, as well as attach a warranty or receipt.

From your My Life page you will see 3 tabs at the top titled “Items” “Services” and “Family”. Once you tap on Family you will see that there is automatically a person created for you. Here you can track important information about yourself, add notes, and attach expenses, services, and items.

By clicking the blue plus button from the Family tab, you will see the option to add either a Person or a Pet. Once you click an option you can fill out details, add photos, and then click the Save button.

From your My Life page you will see 3 tabs at the top titled “Items” “Services” and “Family”. Once you tap on Services, you will see a blue plus button, which once tapped on will bring you to a page to add a new Service. Here you can add details about your service, and after click the Save button.
