FreshKeep: Expiry Tracker

Kartik Sharma...

About this app

FreshKeep is a calm, simple way to know what food you have and use it before it goes to waste. Scan a barcode or snap a photo, get a gentle reminder before dates pass, and turn what's in your kitchen into a shopping list, a meal plan or real savings — all without typing everything by hand.

Most pantry apps either demand constant manual entry or give up the moment a barcode isn't recognised. FreshKeep works offline as a guest from the first launch, with fast manual entry, and adds barcode and receipt scanning, OCR date-label reading and voice entry so you rarely type a product name twice.

📦 KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE
• Pantry, fridge, freezer and any storage area you use — including shelves, drawers, a second fridge, office or car
• Multiple households/places with separate access per member
• A product catalogue separate from each purchase batch, so two tins of the same thing can have different dates, prices and locations
• Search by name, brand, barcode or location; filter and sort by status, date or quantity

⏰ USE IT IN TIME
• Use-by, best-before, opened and frozen dates tracked separately, never guessed from a barcode
• A "use first" list and a calendar view show what's due soonest
• Gentle, configurable reminders — 1/3/7 days before, same-day, or your own lead time — scheduled entirely on your device
• Mark used, partially used or discarded in one tap, with undo

📷 REAL CAPTURE, NO FAKE DATA
• Barcode scanning with live Open Food Facts lookup for name, brand, ingredients, nutrition, allergens and images
• Photograph a printed date label — the app reads it, you confirm it
• Import a receipt — line items and prices become stock and spending history after you review them
• Add by voice ("two litres of milk in the fridge") or take a photo of a few items for suggestions you edit before saving

🛒 SHOPPING THAT KNOWS YOUR STOCK
• Multiple shopping lists, sublists and checklist items
• Restock suggestions from what's actually low, finished or bought often
• "You already have this" hints before you buy a duplicate
• Checking off items can turn them straight into inventory with the right price, date and location

🍳 RECIPES & MEAL PLANNING
• Build a personal recipe library or import one from a URL, photo or pasted text
• See what you can cook from what's already in stock, and what's missing
• Plan a week of meals; cooking a recipe deducts the ingredients you actually used, with undo
• Recipe suggestions favour items that are due soon — never served as a food-safety claim

📊 INSIGHTS, BUDGET & WASTE
• Real spending history, budgets and waste cost calculated from what you actually recorded
• "Value consumed" and "waste avoided" are always shown separately — no inflated savings claims
• Compare products on nutrition, ingredients and allergens, with the data source always shown

🔒 PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Works fully as a guest with everything on your device — sign in only if you want cloud backup and household sharing
• Barcode/search lookups only send the barcode or search text to Open Food Facts, a free open database — never your personal data
• Export your data or delete it completely at any time

Light and dark themes, English and हिन्दी, and support for more languages, date formats and currencies.

FreshKeep helps you track what you have and when to use it. It is not a food-safety guarantee — always check the label, storage and the food itself before eating.
