Filament Tracker for 3D Printing – Track Filament Inventory, Spools, and Usage (Android)



Filament Tracker for 3D Printing – Track Filament Inventory, Spools, and Usage

Filament Tracker v1.0.2 is now available on Google Play with major new features and improvements for makers.

I’m excited to share the latest version of Filament Tracker, now available on Google Play.

If you enjoy 3D printing, you already know how quickly filament starts to pile up. Different brands, materials, colors, partially used spools, dryer locations, printer assignments, and storage bins can get difficult to manage fast.

That’s exactly why I built Filament Tracker.

What Is Filament Tracker?

Filament Tracker is an Android app designed to help makers organize and manage their 3D printing filament inventory in one place.

Whether you have a few favorite spools or a full shelf of materials, Filament Tracker helps you keep track of:

  • what filament you have
  • where it is stored
  • how much is left
  • what it cost
  • when it was purchased
  • how much you are actually using

Key Features

Filament and Spool Tracking

Track filament by brand, material, color, and spool count. Add multiple spools to the same filament and monitor remaining grams over time.

Barcode, QR, and NFC Support

Quickly add filament by scanning a barcode or QR code. You can also read and write NFC tags for faster filament matching and spool setup.

Inventory Management

Organize spools by Printers, Filament Dryers, and Storage locations. Move spools between locations with a simple workflow.

Print Calculator and Print History

Estimate filament usage before printing, log grams used, and keep spool totals accurate. View past prints and undo usage when needed.

Expanded Filament Catalog

The built-in catalog includes a much larger selection of brands, materials, and colors to help speed up filament setup.

Material Definitions and Dryer Presets

View helpful material reference information and drying guidance for common filament types.

Low Stock and Favorites

Quickly see when spools or filaments are running low. Mark favorite filaments so the colors and materials you use most are easier to manage.

Filament Tags and Purchase Dates

Track useful details like filament tags, spool purchase dates, and additional notes to keep your inventory more organized.

Stats and Insights

View useful collection stats including spool totals, inventory by location, and low stock counts.

Backup and Restore

Export and import your data so your collection stays safe and easy to restore.

What’s New in Version 1.0.2

  • Added NFC tag reading and writing
  • Added Material Definitions
  • Expanded the filament catalog and presets
  • Added low stock support and favorites
  • Added filament tags and purchase dates
  • Improved filters, quick actions, and overall UI polish
  • Added general bug fixes and performance improvements

Why I Built It

I wanted something that was:

  • fast and easy to use
  • clean and modern
  • practical for real hobby 3D printing
  • focused on actually keeping filament inventory accurate

So I built it for myself, and now I’m sharing it with other makers too.
