LESS GUESSWORK

Open the fridge with a plan.

A product hidden behind another product is easy to forget. Bring your stock and dates into one clear view, so your next cooking decision starts with what is already there.

  • Review upcoming dates together.

MADE FOR REAL KITCHENS

The details that make a habit easier.

Dates, your way

Enter a date manually or read it from a package photo. Review the result before saving.

Products without the typing

Scan a barcode. Available online product details can help you fill the entry.

A little or the whole pack

Record partial use, not just empty packages. Keep each quantity with its unit.

A place for everything

Use storage locations to keep track of where each item belongs.

A useful waste record

Review discarded quantities and optional recorded costs, by unit and currency.

Your backup, your choice

Export an inventory backup and preview a saved file before importing it.

Start with what is already on your shelf.

Add a few everyday products and build the routine at your own pace.

A few things you may be wondering.

Do I need an account or internet connection?

No account is required. Core stock management works offline. Online product lookup, Google services and Play Store updates can use the internet; offline use does not disable those services permanently.

Can I add homemade food?

Yes. Use manual entry to give a product its own name and record the date, quantity and storage location. A barcode is optional.

Will the scanner always recognise the date?

No. Lighting, printing and packaging affect recognition. Always review and confirm the result. Manual date entry remains available.

Why is a barcode not recognised?

The online product database does not contain every product. Details can be incomplete or unsuitable. You can enter the information yourself.

Does the app tell me whether food is safe?

No. It organises dates and stock. Safety depends on the product, storage, opening and preparation, among other factors. Follow the label and official food-safety guidance.
