About Borrow Mate

Keep track of anything that you borrow or lend. This useful application makes a calendar entry of what you borrow or lend and has options to scan and read the barcode from most products and books.

Scans anything and everything from Books, DVDs, CDs, Computer Equipment, Gadgets, Jam & Pickles too!

PREREQUISITES:
* Android Calendar App (mostly already installed)
* Barcode Scanner (free on market)

The initial screen allows you to add a new transaction for a lent or borrowed item. A default calendar must be specified so that an entry can be made with the item's due date. Best way to stay organized - never pay another library fine, nor lose track of your possessions.

Very simple to use:

* Set a default calendar from the settings page. Syncs to your online Google Calendar if that is selected

* Scan the Barcode of the item. Borrow Mate will look-up online databases and find the title of your item. If it doesn't find it, you can always enter your own description

* Enter a item return date

* Enter or search for a contact

* Hit the save button and Borrow Mate adds the entry to the calendar

* Goto the menu and click 'Item List' to view all Lendings and Borrowings. Click on an item to indicate that the item has been returned, and it will be removed from the calendar

* Can also go to your calendar application and edit/view the item return entry

It says "deleted from Calendar", but the book is still on the list. It's still there now despite several attemps to delete and restarting my phone after it was off over night. Droid 2 Galaxy

It took me a long time to find a free app that I could use to scan the barcode of items I borrow and I just need to put in the due date. Sadly this app is not yet compatible with Android 2.3, I miss this app!
