About this app

Refuse food waste and stay organized with UseUp!

Often forget when the milk in the fridge was bought? Found out the cold medicine in the box expired half a year ago? Too many cosmetics to remember their opening dates? UseUp is your minimalist home inventory tracker, personal item manager, and expiry date tracker assistant. It helps you easily track the validity of items at home, consume them in time before they expire, saving money and reducing waste.

Core Feature Highlights:

1. Photo Recording & Visual Inventory
- Visual Inventory Manager: Support taking photos for every item. What you see is what you get—no need to guess or recall "which cream is this" from a text list.
- Minimalist Entry: Carefully designed entry interface, add item name, category, and expiry date in seconds. A smooth, distraction-free workflow.

2. Freshness Cues & Smart Reminders
- Expiry Freshness Indicators: The dashboard uses intuitive color-coded alerts to show "fresh" (green), "expiring soon" (orange), and "expired" (red) items. Urgency is clear at a glance.
- Smart Local Notifications: Custom expiration alerts (e.g., 3 days or 1 month in advance) to ensure you consume items before they expire.
- Home Screen Widgets: Pin expiring items to your home screen so you can check what needs using at a glance without even opening the app.
- Multi-dimensional Filtering: Quickly sort and filter items by location, category, purchase date, or remaining quantity.

3. Flexible Classification & Consumption Logging
- Multi-dimensional management: Support custom Categories (e.g., Food, Medicine, Beauty) and Locations (e.g., Fridge, Pantry, Office, Cabinet).
- Custom Consumption Quantity: Support partial consumption (e.g., 0.5 bottles, 250ml) to precisely track remaining items.
- Use & Consumption History: Consumed items are automatically archived in a detailed history log, allowing you to review family usage habits and optimize shopping lists.

4. Offline Family Sharing & Sync
- Local P2P Sync: Seamlessly synchronize your inventory lists across multiple family devices over your local network (P2P)—completely offline, secure, and cloud-free. No account, registration, or internet connection required.
