One of the first steps to get started with InVintory is setting up your storages - the parent term for cellars or fridges. Whether you have just one or several, organizing them from the start will help you stay on top of your collection.
Most users divide their storages based on location or type—for example:
Kitchen fridge
Basement cellar
Cottage cellar
Garage fridge
Available on the following devices: | Available for the following tiers: |
iPhone ✅ | 10 storages on Free ✅ |
iPad ✅ | 20 storages on Premium ✅ |
Desktop Site ✅ | 20 storages on Elite ✅ |
Once your storages are set up, you’ll be able to assign bottles to the correct location and start building 3D sections.
Note:
You must have at least one storage in InVintory. If you add your first bottle without one, a default "My Cellar" will automatically be created.
If you're on the Elite plan, we’ll create your first cellar for you.
If you’ve imported a spreadsheet with cellar names, storages will be auto-created based on that information.
