Home inventory for iPhone

Never lose anything ever again.

Sésame keeps track of every place and spot in your home, from the pantry shelf to the gym bag. Tap a tag on a box to see what’s in it, find anything by searching, and get a reminder before food or skincare expire.

Sésame’s Home screen: counts of items in use, expiring, opened and unsorted, then the places Home and Office, each with a strip of tiles showing what’s inside.

How it works

Set it up once. After that, just tap.

  1. STEP 1

    Map your places and spots

    Start with a place, like Home or Office. Inside it, add spots as deep as you need: a room, a shelf, a box, a bag.

  2. STEP 2

    Tag what you rarely open

    Stick an NFC tag on it, or print a QR label from the app. The tag only holds a link, so it never needs redoing when the contents change.

  3. STEP 3

    Tap to peek inside

    Tap Scan, hold your iPhone to the tag, and that spot opens with everything in it listed. In the app, every spot shows a strip of what’s inside, too.

The Expiring screen: Greek yogurt marked expired, then liquid cream, milk, zucchini and the sunscreen in the living-room gym bag due within a week, each with the number of days left.

Expiry dates

Use it before it expires.

Point the camera at the date on the pack and Sésame reads it. Then it reminds you when you choose: the day before, a week before, three months before.

Try it: pick a label
Sésame reads Thursday, March 4, 2027 Also offered: Saturday, April 3, 2027

Day and month could swap. Your region picks the first reading, and the other one is a tap away.

Also: mark opened packs with how much is left, and scan barcodes to fill in the name from Open Food Facts.

The In Use screen: a cordless drill lent to Camille and a laptop charger taken from the laptop backpack, with a Put All Back button.

Take out, put back

It remembers where things came from.

Taking something out keeps its spot. The drill you lent out stays on the In Use list until it’s home, and putting it back is one swipe.

  • Screwdriver set
  • Tape measure

Swipe a row to the right, or use its button. Items that are out fade in the strip above.

And the small things that make it work.

Search everywhere

Always at the top of Home. Inside a spot, it only looks in that spot and what’s nested in it.

Barcode lookup

Fills in food, cosmetics and household products from the free Open Food Facts databases. No key needed.

Find by photo

Photograph something and Sésame shortlists the items it looks like, matched on your iPhone.

Ask Siri

“Where did I put my passport in Sésame?” Siri answers with the spot, without opening the app.

Widgets

Expiring Soon on your Home Screen and Lock Screen, plus quick ways to add an item or scan a tag.

AI fill-in, if you want it

Snap a product and let Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini fill in the details, with your own API key. Off unless you add one.

What’s in your drawers stays in your drawers.

Your inventory lives on your iPhone and nowhere else. Sésame has no account, no server and no analytics. It only goes online when you ask it to: to look up a barcode, or to send a photo to the AI provider you picked.
