Android based App

So, my collection is starting to grow, and I was wondering if anyone has used Reptile Scan, and if so, is it worth it? Are there any other similar apps out there?

SnakeKeeper, the app I use. Don't know if it's for android unfortunatly..

[aaron_cg]

Sadly, it's only for Apple. I may find a cheap Itouch and get it. I've read fantastic reviews of it.

I've got it too, I used it for like 5 weeks and then I kinda forgot about it lol

I use programs provided Google drive. I like my records to be very detailed with weights, feedings, sheds, DOB, parents, and grandparents so it is not as portable though.

Currently I am using a gold old fashioned pen and paper, but I want something I can access pretty much 24/7. I'm thinking about a Google doc with a spreadsheet, but I'm not 100% sure yet.

If you have a rooted android phone you can get it for free :)

Actually, found the apk file, and it works for me. Can't update it, but I'm just using it to manage my collection, and to set up bins and cages for my rescue program.

I use snake keeper so i have a record on me all the time. But i also have a record book at home.

Sweet, hope it works for ya

[aaron_cg]

Yeah, it's funny that you say that, because the apk file just glitched out real bad. Sucked it up and paid the money for it.

I tried that reptile scan earlier and unless you have bar codes and stuff on your animals is almost useless, I didn't like it that much, not worth the money

[aaron_cg]

Yeah, I didn't like it, until I printed out the bar code. I have 7 snakes I keep, and at any given time 30+ that go in and out of my house. Definitely useful for larger numbers.

[jpsteele80]

Where do you print out bar codes?

[aaron_cg]

You have to go to the site. I can't exactly remember the process, UT if you look at the FAQ, it shows how to do it.

I found another one I like a little better, I might try it again when my collection gets big enough again
