Do I need to buy Boxymi QR labels?

Are Boxymi QR labels suitable for outdoor use?

How do I get started with the Boxymi mobile app?
Find Boxymi in the App Store or Google Play, or use the download links in the footer. Install the app, sign in to your account and open your workspace. Attach a label, scan it and connect it to an item record with a name, photos, a description and a location.
Can I find an item without scanning its label?
Yes. Search for the item by name or code and use location or category filters to narrow the results. Add descriptive names and details when you create your records so boxes and their contents are easier to find later.
Can I use Boxymi for moving, storage, home organisation or a small business?
Yes. Label moving boxes and record their contents and destination rooms; organise stored belongings by category and location; group household items by use or season; or track business stock and update quantities as items move. Photos and clear descriptions help you find what you need without opening every box.
What is printed on a Boxymi QR label?
Each label has a QR code and an alphanumeric code, plus space for a short written note. Keep any writing clear of the QR code so it remains easy to scan. Use the code to connect the label to an item record in Boxymi.
Does scanning my label let anyone see my inventory?
Scanning a label does not grant access to your workspace. Access to item records depends on the signed-in account and its workspace permissions. If you share a workspace with a team, check membership and permissions with the workspace owner.
