    So now I have an inventory (and pictures)

    So it will import associated pictures of equipment with a pic of the serial number? Cool

      Nah, it’s 2 different things.

      I could add pictures in the shopping list app, I just don’t want them there.

      Instead I slowly took pictures of everything I own. And when something new comes in, I take a pic of that. I have a folder for inventory photos.

      Those photos are only a just-in-case for insurance.

        Cool. The insurance angle has helped me on a couple of occasions. Had a piece of farm equipment disappear. Had all the surveillance replete with photos of the equipment and snapshots of serial numbers. The process was rather painless with all of that. I highly recommend people go through at least once a year and take a digital inventory, especially big ticket items.

      The current version does have the ability to create QR codes for your assets and scan them later for identification, but I don’t know of a way to scan a new item and identify it automatically.
