StowCue Gives Old Barcodes a Second Job
A forthcoming storage app that turns QR codes, barcodes, and custom identifiers into searchable cues for containers, items, locations, and private notes.
Field notes
The proposed workflow separates a physical identifier from the information it retrieves: users can reuse a packaging barcode, an old event QR code, or a newly printed code as a pointer to a container, item list, location, or note. The page illustrates the idea with a simulated scan returning “Holiday Decorations,” 11 items, and “Garage · Shelf B.” It also describes multiple identifiers per container and moving items without rebuilding the organization.
