About this app

GoesOff is an expiry date tracker for your fridge, freezer and cupboard. It keeps one list sorted by expiry date, so the food with the earliest date is always at the top. Every item ends with one of two taps, Eaten or Binned, and GoesOff keeps a running estimate of the money you saved and the money you threw away.

FOOD EXPIRY DATE TRACKER
Food is grouped into Today, 3 days, This week and Later. Each row changes colour as its date gets closer, from green through amber to red, so you can see at a glance what needs using up. Filter by fridge, freezer or cupboard, or search by name.

ADD FOOD IN SECONDS
Scan a barcode to look up the product name on Open Food Facts, the open food database. Point the camera at the printed date and GoesOff reads it on your phone; check the date before you save. Or tap Today, +3, +7 or +30 days. Anything you have added before comes back in one tap, with its price, its place and how long it usually lasts.

EATEN OR BINNED
Swipe right when you eat something and left when you throw it away, or tap the button on the row. Both can be undone. A wrong tap from last week can be put right from the month's list.

THE MONEY LINE
Type a price once and GoesOff remembers it for that product. The top of the board shows this month's estimated value of food marked Eaten and food marked Binned, from the prices you entered. The Money tab breaks the month down week by week and compares the last six months. Totals are estimates from your own prices, kept per currency and never mixed.

A DAILY DIGEST
Choose a time for a daily expiry date reminder. When items have dates due by tomorrow, GoesOff groups them into one notification, such as "3 items go off by tomorrow", instead of one alert per item. Your phone's settings have to allow notifications.

SHOPPING LIST
Food you have just finished is offered back for the shopping list in one tap. Tick things off in the shop, and share the list as text.

YOUR FOOD STAYS ON YOUR PHONE
No account and no cloud. Your food list, prices and shopping list are stored on your phone. Date photos are read on the phone and deleted straight away. A barcode number is sent to Open Food Facts only to look up a product name. The app uses Google services for ads, crash reporting and usage statistics. Export a backup file you can save or share, and restore it on another phone.

PLANS
The standard tier holds 25 items on the board at once, with the fridge, freezer and cupboard, barcode and date scanning, the digest, the shopping list, backup and this month's money line, and shows a banner on the Money tab. A single one-time unlock adds unlimited items, places you name yourself, every past month and the six month chart, and removes the ads. Food already on your board is never locked or hidden.

WHAT GOESOFF DOES NOT DO
It does not know whether food is safe to eat. It shows the use-by or best-before date you entered or scanned, exactly as you entered it; follow the packet and your local food safety advice. Money figures are estimates from the prices you typed, not real shop prices.

Works in English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Hindi, Arabic, Japanese, Korean and Chinese, on phones and tablets.
