Baskello: Grocery & Pantry

About this app

Baskello keeps track of your kitchen, so you don't have to.

Most shopping list apps stop at the list. Baskello also knows what you already
have at home — what's running low, what's about to expire, and what you can cook
with it tonight. It works fully offline, and it's just as useful signed out as
signed in.

SHOPPING LISTS THAT SORT THEMSELVES
• Type it, say it, or scan it — every item lands in the right aisle
• Buy Again remembers what your household buys often, and how often — put any of
it back on a list in one tap
• Check items off as you shop, then move the whole trip into your pantry
• Share a home with family and every phone stays in sync

A PANTRY THAT'S HONEST
• See what you have and how much is left — estimates that fade with time,
because a week-old guess isn't a fact
• Best-before dates with a clear "eat me first" nudge
• Photograph a printed best-before date instead of typing it
• Every item has a category you can correct, using your own categories
• Storage and shelf-life tips for each item: how to keep it, how long it lasts,
and how long once it's opened
• Two-stage expiry reminders — a heads-up before something expires and again
when it does, with the notice period you choose
• Approximate nutrition per item, from the product's label when you scan a
barcode, otherwise a typical estimate

FILL IT WITHOUT TYPING
• Photograph a fridge shelf or a cupboard and Baskello lists what it sees
• Snap a receipt and it reads every line, prices included
• Scan a barcode for an instant product match

DINNER FROM WHAT YOU HAVE
• Ask what you can cook tonight and get recipes built around your actual shelves
• Turn what's about to expire into a meal
• Plan a whole week of dinners
• Choose your cuisines — Indian, Italian, Thai, Middle Eastern and more
• Cook from hand-picked ingredients, save the recipes you like, and keep a
history of what you've cooked
• Cook a meal and the ingredients you finished off are offered for your next list

KNOW WHAT YOU SPEND
• Every expense in one place, grouped by month
• Add one by hand, log a shop's total, or snap a receipt
• Choose the currency per expense — 65+ supported, each totalled separately, so
a traveller's pounds, euros and rupees never blur into one confusing sum
• Set a budget if you want one

MADE FOR REAL LIFE
• Fully offline-first — no account required
• Optional sign-in adds cross-device backup, sharing and reminders
• English, हिन्दी and العربية, with full right-to-left support
• Light and dark themes, with ten colour palettes

Free. No ads. No tracking. No subscription, no paywalled features, and your
shopping habits are never sold.

What’s new

• Pantry categories: fix a mis-filed item, using your own categories from your lists.
• Photograph a best-before date instead of typing it — and if the printed date could mean two things, Baskello asks.
• Approximate nutrition on pantry items: the product's own label when you scan a barcode, otherwise a typical estimate.
• Cuisines now genuinely steer the ideas, with "Any" to clear them.
• Cook a meal and whatever you finished off is offered for your next list.
