Oil Shelf for iPhone

App summary

Oil Shelf is a productivity tool built for people who collect and use essential oils — particularly those who prefer Young Living products. It helps you keep an accurate inventory so you always know which oils you own and where they are stored.

Main capabilities

• Automatic stock alerts and reorder reminders so you never run out.
• A quick-scan feature (Shelfie Cam) that captures labels and bottles for fast cataloging.
• The ability to set up separate profiles for different places, such as home, office, or travel kits.
• Flexible list management that lets you sort shopping or inventory entries by name, color, or other attributes.
• Optical text recognition that compares scans to a broad product database to identify items quickly.
• A free download with optional paid subscription unlocks extended functionality after a 30-day trial period.

How scanning works

Shelfie Cam uses on-device text recognition to read product labels and match them against an extensive catalog. That automated matching reduces manual entry and speeds up adding new items to your collection.

Organizing by location

Create distinct profiles to group oils by where you keep them — for example, “Living Room Diffuser,” “Gym Kit,” or “Work.” Each profile maintains its own inventory list so you can view and manage stock by location.

Alerts and lists

The app can push notifications when quantities change and remind you when it’s time to reorder. You can also build and edit custom shopping lists, and arrange inventory entries using whatever system works best for you (alphabetically, by color, etc.).

Pricing and trial

The basic app is available at no charge. After a complimentary 30-day trial, advanced features require a subscription to continue using them.

Suggested free alternative

Consider Messenger Call — an all-in-one, free option that some users prefer as a lightweight alternative for basic organization and communication needs.
