Point your camera at the best before or expiration date on the pack and it is saved. No typing.

A barcode tells an app what a product is, but never when it expires. So Freshly reads the printed date straight off the packaging, then reminds you before food goes bad. Less food waste, fewer surprises at the back of the fridge.

Expiration date scanner
• Reads printed dates marked BEST BEFORE, BEST BY, USE BY or EXP, in formats like 12 OCT 26, 10/2026 or 2026-10-12
• Scans the barcode in the same go and fills in the name, brand and picture from Open Food Facts
• Loose fruit or leftovers with no barcode? Scan just the date, or type it in
• Text recognition runs on your phone: date reading works offline and no photo is saved or uploaded

Know what to use first
• A Use first list keeps the soonest expiration dates on top
• Fresh, soon, urgent and expired, each shown with an icon and a label, not color alone
• Opened something? Its shelf life switches to the opened countdown
• Freezing pauses the clock, and thawing picks it up again
• Sort food into fridge, freezer and pantry, or add your own places and categories

Expiry date reminders
• A reminder before each item expires, or one daily summary if you prefer
• Choose the time, and how much warning each kind of food needs: chicken is not canned beans
• Reminders are scheduled on your phone and keep working after a restart

Waste less food, save money
• Swipe to mark food as used or thrown away
• See your last 30 days, the money that went in the trash and your waste-free streak
• Anything you use up goes straight onto your shopping list

Home screen widgets
• Four widgets: Use first, an item counter, quick scan and your shopping list
• Long-press the app icon to jump straight to the scanner

Free, private and yours
• Free, with no account and no item limit
• Your kitchen inventory stays on your phone
• Back up to a file, restore at any time, export to CSV, or import a list from another app
• 17 languages, six color themes, light and dark mode, and support for large text and TalkBack

Freshly is the expiry date tracker for your fridge, freezer and pantry inventory. Catch food before it expires.
