Insurance Documentation
Be Ready Before You Ever Need It
A frozen record of what your home contained — proof, ready before you need it.
After a fire, a burglary or a water leak, the insurance company asks a hard question: what exactly did you have, and what was it worth? A documentation snapshot answers it. It's a frozen record of everything a home contained at a moment in time — items, values, photos and receipts — kept as proof for a claim.
Capturing a Snapshot
- Open your property in More → Holdings
- Go to the Insurance tab
- Tap Capture snapshot
Famn copies everything the home contains right now — the item list with quantities, brands and values, and the attached photos and receipts. This can take a moment for a well-documented home. Once done, the snapshot appears in your history with its total value and item count.
The snapshot is frozen: changes you make to your belongings afterwards don't touch it. That's the point — it's evidence of how things stood on that date.
Tip: Capture a fresh snapshot after big changes — a renovation, an expensive purchase, moving things to the cabin. And documenting your valuables before capturing pays off: the snapshot can only prove what you've registered. The Items guide shows how the documentation chips help you spot gaps.
Your Snapshot History
Each snapshot in the list shows its status:
- Current — your newest complete snapshot. Kept as long as it is current.
- Superseded — replaced by a newer one, but kept for several years (the kept-until date is shown on each snapshot), so older records stay available for claims about the past.
Open a snapshot to see everything it froze: the total value, the full contents list, and how many documents were preserved with it.
Getting the Report
When you need to hand something to the insurance company:
- Open the snapshot
- Tap Download PDF
- Famn prepares the report in the background and notifies you when it's ready — you can leave the screen in the meantime
The PDF lists the frozen contents with values, ready to attach to a claim.
Vehicles in Snapshots
Snapshots keep their history even as life moves on: if you later remove a vehicle from your household, snapshots that included it still remember it. What was true then, stays true in the record.
Perfect for:
- Being able to prove what you owned, not just remember it
- A yearly "state of the home" ritual — capture, done, forget about it
- Claims about the past: superseded snapshots stay available for years
- Peace of mind that costs you one tap a year
