Alert Expire - Expiry Reminder

Never let anything expire again.

Alert Expire tracks everything in your home that carries a date — groceries, medicine, skincare, warranties, insurance, passports, subscriptions — and tells you while there's still time to do something about it. Add an item, forget about it, and the app watches the date for you.
▪ ADD AN ITEM IN SECONDS
📷 Scan the barcode — the product name fills itself in from the free, open
OpenFoodFacts database.
📷 Scan the printed date — point the camera at "BEST BEFORE 15 OC 2025" and it's read for you.
⌨️ Type it in plain English — "Milk in 3 days, eye drops next week, car
nsurance june 30" becomes three tracked items, dates and categories worked out
for you.
🎙 Say it out loud — dictate straight into Quick Add.
✍️ Or enter it by hand, with full control over quantity, price, location and notes.

▪ REMINDERS YOU ACTUALLY NOTICE

One easy-to-miss ping is why things get thrown away. Alert Expire escalates
instead: a gentle heads-up when your reminder window opens, a firmer nudge as the date closes in, then today/tomorrow, then expired. Each stage arrives once — no nagging. A busy shopping week collapses into a single digest ("4 items expiring soon") instead of four separate cards down your notification shade. Every reminder carries Consumed and Snooze buttons, and snooze is sensible: one day for milk, a month for a passport.
It all runs with the app closed. Add something with a 50-day expiry, never open Alert Expire again, and the reminder still arrives. It survives reboots too.

▪ DATES THAT MATCH REALITY
Not everything expires on the day printed on the box.
• Period after opening — for cosmetics, skincare and medicine, tell the app when you opened it and the 6M / 12M jar symbol is respected alongside the printed date.
• Freezer — frozen food stops nagging you on its fridge date.
• Storage location — tag things as Fridge, Freezer, Pantry, Medicine cabinet or
anything you like, then filter by where they are.
• Free-form categories with your own emoji, each with a lead time that suits it — milk 3 days, a passport 90.

▪ MORE THAN A LIST
🏠 Home-screen widget — see what needs attention without opening anything, and tick items off straight from your home screen.
🛒 Shopping list — finish something and it lands on your list. Buy it, and one
tap puts it back in the pantry already dated. Recurring staples stay on the list.
📊 Stats — how much you really use versus throw away, including money wasted, broken down by category.
💾 Backup — export everything to a file and import it back, plus CSV export for spreadsheets.
