Alternatives
Everspruce alternatives, past the 50-entry cap.
We build Itemlist, one of the apps below, so read this knowing that. Everspruce is a well-rated home inventory app with a genuinely useful spread: iOS, Android and a web app, with 50 entries free forever. The usual reasons to look elsewhere are the size of that free tier and the price of Plus. Here is the field around it, checked live on August 19, 2026.
First, fairly
What Everspruce actually is
Everspruce is rated 4.7 from 468 App Store ratings and shipped version 1.25.2 on August 17, 2026, two days before we checked, so it is actively maintained. It runs on iOS, Android and the web, which matters if you want to type up an inventory at a laptop and carry it on your phone. The free tier is honest: 50 entries, free forever, backed up to the cloud. It also does things we like, including printable QR labels for boxes and PDF and CSV export.
The numbers to know before committing a whole home to it: past 50 entries you are on Everspruce Plus at $5.99 a month or $44.99 a year, per its own help pages. Fifty entries can disappear into a single room once you count electronics, tools and kitchen gear, so most households should expect to hit the cap and should judge Everspruce at its paid price, not its free one.

The picks
Where each one fits
Itemlist, the app we build, is the pick for an iPhone or iPad household, or a small business tracking its equipment, that wants more headroom for less: the free plan holds 100 items and 20 containers, double Everspruce's entry cap, and Pro costs $29.99 a year against Plus at $44.99, or $59.99 once for lifetime, an option Everspruce does not offer. Where Everspruce files things under a location, a box and tags, Itemlist organizes the way a home is organized: locations hold rooms, rooms hold containers, and containers nest inside other containers, so the box inside the bin on the garage shelf has an address. The barcode scanner fills in serial numbers, and CSV export is free on every tier. The honest limitation is platform: no web or Android version.
Under My Roof is the pick if the laptop half of Everspruce is what you would miss: it is native on iPhone, iPad and Mac, pairs inventory with maintenance and documents, and costs a published $4.99 a month or $34.99 a year.
Nest Egg removes the subscription question entirely: $6.99 once. It is rated 4.4 from 616 ratings and was last updated in May 2026. If what bothers you about Everspruce Plus is paying yearly for a list of your own things, this is the antidote.
Itemtopia is the pick if Everspruce's platform spread is the part you want more of: we confirmed its iOS app, its live Google Play listing and a Mac build for Apple silicon. The caveat is price, Premium at $7.99 a month or $79.99 a year, the highest on this page. The field around it is on our Itemtopia alternatives page.
FAQ
Everspruce alternative questions
How much does Everspruce cost?
Everspruce is free for up to 50 entries, with no time limit. Going past that is Everspruce Plus at $5.99 a month or $44.99 a year, per its own help pages as of August 19, 2026, which unlocks unlimited entries and sharing with other users across iOS, Android and the web.
Why do people look for an Everspruce alternative?
Not abandonment: Everspruce shipped version 1.25.2 on August 17, 2026, two days before we checked, and is rated 4.7 on the App Store. The usual reasons are the free tier and the price. Fifty entries is generous as a trial but small for a whole home, and once you are paying, $44.99 a year is more than some competitors charge for the same job.
Is there an Everspruce alternative with a bigger free tier?
Itemlist is free up to 100 items and 20 containers on iPhone and iPad, double Everspruce’s entry cap, with no cap on locations and free CSV export. NAIC Home Inventory is fully free with no caps at all, though it is rated about 2.1 on the App Store as of August 19, 2026. And going app-free works too: our room-by-room checklist and spreadsheet template are free downloads with no email required.
Does Itemlist have a web or Android version like Everspruce?
No. Itemlist is iPhone and iPad only. If working from a laptop browser or an Android phone is why you picked Everspruce, that is an edge it keeps, and this page says so plainly. Among the alternatives here, Itemtopia is the one with confirmed Android and Mac versions.
