iLend - Keep track of the things you lend and borrow.

iLend is a simple mobile app that helps you track the things you lend and borrow. Add items in seconds, invite your friends and never forget about borrowed items again!

You can also connect an item to a friend via Facebook so you both see it in app and remember it!

Available for iOS & Android.

I'm getting this app just for this gorgeous icon! Edit: Thanks for adding login with email! I don't have a Facebook account so this is great.

@pugson We plan to add non-fb support in the next update! ;)

@pugson @lukaszmtw waiting for this update :)

@pawelmag @lukaszmtw This is so handy, is there a feature to let your friend know when you need the borrowed item back? I've got a few clothing items on loan... 👗

@abadesi When you add an item you can connect it to a friend via Facebook and it will also show in his app. Notifications are on our todo list. ;)

@lukaszmtw that's awesome!

I've been following and testing the development of iLend for a while and I can see why students would use this a lot! Great app, great execution Luke! Hope it catches on 🤗

@amrith Thanks Amrith!

There are some concerns about the Facebook login. It's our first version and we wanted to validate the idea first. Other options coming very soon! Edit: Now it's possible to use the app without FB account.

Today we shipped the update allowing to use the app without Facebook account. Enjoy! cc @pugson @dumitruaxentii @joey__jay @momo_kon9

Nice simple idea. Out of interest; how many items do users have lent at any one time?
Jeff Osborn
This is very cool! Beautiful design and neat concept. Thank you for making! In your view, what is the problem iLend is solving? Is it a hard or soft problem?
Luke Oslizlo
@jeff_osborn The main problem we are trying to solve is that people often forget about things they borrow. With iLend both sides can keep track of everything.
Jeff Osborn
@lukaszmtw Right. I tend to lend things I don't expect back. If I lend more important things, I don't forget. That's why I was wondering if you identified a hard problem with your users? That's just me, so if there's a bunch of people lending a ton of larger items or behaving in a different way than I do, then you've got something special.

wow, i just remember I still need to give back a Game boy Advance SP i've lent 12 years ago. I should use this app 👍

I always lose stuff, and I used to take a picture of someone with whatever I was lending them so that I wouldn't forget, and this app is great at solving that. Looking forward to further updates!

Pros:

It's so easy to use and I can tell it's been properly thought through. The design is amazing, and the user experience simply great.

Cons:

Since I logged in using Facebook, I would like to Lend or Borrow by simply selecting a list from Facebook friends.

Luke Oslizlo
I'm glad that you like the app. In fact you can select your friends from Facebook, but only these, who have used the app before. Unfortunately it's an FB API limitation we can't get around.

I know I gave my apple press to someone, but I just can't remember who...

What's ilend different than iOS notes or kanban boards like Trello?
Luke Oslizlo
@bntzio It's an app dedicated for tracking lent and borrowed things. You can also connect an item to a friend via FB so you both see it in the app and remember it.

Hope there can be more other options like Twitter, not only Facebook.
