EssPla

Plan meals, use what you have and shop with confidence: recipes, dietary preferences, pantry stock, store prices, barcode, price tag and receipt scanning.

EssPla brings recipes, meal planning, pantry stock, shopping and stores together in one app. Plan meals, keep track of what you have, and record products, prices and purchases as you go.

Use EssPla locally without an EssPla account and without ads. Your household data stays on your device by default. You can optionally enable iCloud for your own devices or use EssPla Plus to share a household.
