Ratings and reviews

Its okay, works like a digital list is all. I was tracking my household and food items on a piece of paper and that got old soon. The expiration date doesn't go out more than a few months. No matter how many times I take a picture, the app will lose it. The search button will bring you close to the proximity of what you are looking for but you'll have to search for it from there. It doesn't group items or show the items that are 0 quantity. The recipe part doesn't work.

I started using it. It was time consuming. The barcode didn't do anything except put the name and a picture of the item. You have to manually type in quantity and expiration date. We need an app that can scan for the expiration date to save time and put the quantity automatically too, so that you don't spend hours inputting stuff when you go shopping. After I added a few items, tje app gave me a login screen where it was forcing me to create an account. I gave up at that point.

I've been using this app for a week now. It has helped me in reducing my food waste and also helps in keeping track of whatever groceries or food items are left at fridge/freezer or pantry. The best thing is that it provides us with receipes for the items in stock. Areas of improvement includes a seperate option to see what items are about to expire. As of now it only shows that something is about to expire, and one has to sort it in the order of early to expire to see what the item is.

What's new

Now, this version comes with a more stable barcode scanning option. If a barcode for a product doesn't exist in our record, then we track it for you the next time you buy and save the product in the inventory. In this way, you only worry about managing your inventory while our algorithm takes care of the rest for your convenience! <3
