Made for businesses of one to five people

For small businesses that still keep their stock in a spreadsheet or a notebook.

  • Shops

    Hardware, stationery, spare parts. See what is on the shelf and what is running out, at a glance.

  • Workshops

    Know which shelf holds your materials and supplies, and how much is left.

  • E-commerce sellers

    Scan incoming goods into stock, record what you ship as stock out.

  • Small wholesalers

    Work in warehouses, shelves and bins, and turn shortages into a reorder list per supplier.

What Depo does

The whole daily routine, from the item card to the stock count, from low stock to labels.

A place for every item

Record each item with its SKU, one or more barcodes, unit, cost and sale price, minimum stock and a photo. Set up your locations as warehouse → shelf → bin; every location gets its own QR code.

  • Search by name, SKU or barcode
  • Pieces, boxes, packs, kg, g, litres, ml and metres
  • What each location holds, and what it is worth

Stock in, stock out, transfer

Stock is never a number you type over. It is the sum of the movements you record: stock in, stock out, transfers between shelves and adjustments. The history is never rewritten; a mistake is fixed with a correcting movement.

  • You cannot take more out of a shelf than it holds
  • Supplier, unit cost and document number on stock in
  • Stock per shelf, stock value and recent movements on the item card

Scan barcodes with the camera

Your iPhone camera is the barcode scanner: EAN‑13, EAN‑8, UPC‑E, Code 128, Code 39, ITF‑14, Data Matrix and QR. A known barcode opens its item; an unknown one becomes a new item, or is attached to an existing one.

  • Rapid in and rapid out: every scan adds one unit to a list, and Done records them all
  • Different haptics for a match and an unknown code, so you can scan without looking
  • Scan a shelf's QR label to open that shelf
Rapid in on the scanner: four items scanned into the chosen location, pending with their quantities, and the Done button below.

Count stock with your phone

Count the whole stock or a single shelf. A blind count hides the expected figures until you reveal them; every scan adds to the counted quantity. At the end you get a variance report: matched, short, over and not counted, with the value of the difference.

  • Leave a count and pick it up later where you stopped
  • Lines nobody counted are left as they are or set to zero, and you decide which
  • Finishing records one adjustment for every line that differs
A count's Review screen: how many lines matched, came up short, over or not counted, the value of the difference, and the lines in groups.

Low stock and the reorder list

Give each item a minimum stock. Items that fall below it are listed with their shortfall, grouped by supplier. The reorder list is a ready order draft per supplier: adjust the quantities and send it by message or email.

  • A notification when a movement takes an item below its minimum
  • Open the item or add it to the reorder list straight from the notification
  • Call or email a supplier from their card

On the Home Screen and the Lock Screen

The low-stock widget shows what is running out on the Home Screen and the Lock Screen; the stock-value widget shows what your stock is worth. While a count is running, its progress is on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.

  • A Scan control for Control Center and the Action button
  • Stock in, stock out and stock checks with Siri and Shortcuts, without opening the app
  • Items show up in Spotlight search

PROWidgets and the Live Activity are part of Depo Pro.

Print labels, take your data with you

  • Items, stock by location and movements as CSV
  • An A4 PDF stock report with totals and low-stock items
  • Bring your spreadsheet in as CSV, with a preview first

PROLabels, export and import are part of Depo Pro.

On all your devices, with your team

An account is optional; without one, your data stays only on this iPhone. Create an account with your email address and a password, and your business gets a workspace, synced between your devices through Depo's server in Germany. Add your staff with an invite code.

Depo Pro

Unlimited items and warehouses, labels, export and import, widgets and the Live Activity. Plus two features that save real time:

  • Document reading

    Take a photo of an invoice or a delivery note, or pick its PDF. Depo reads the lines and matches them to your items; you check them, confirm, and each line becomes a stock in.

  • Ask Depo

    Ask in your own words: “Which items are running low?”, “How many cordless drills went out this month?” Answers come only from the numbers in your own records, and Ask Depo never changes anything.

Document reading and Ask Depo run on Apple's on-device model, so your documents and questions stay on your phone. They need an iPhone that supports Apple Intelligence, with it turned on.
