Pantry Kitchen Journal

Pantry Kitchen Journal turns your grocery receipt into a kitchen you can see: what you have, what to eat first, and what to cook with it. All on your device.

Snap the paper receipt at the door or import an email PDF. On-device text recognition reads it, and every item lands with a shelf-life estimate in three freshness tiers: Eat now (3 days or less), This week, and Stable. Anything the reader is unsure about waits in "Needs a look" for a one-tap confirm, so your kitchen never fills with guesses.

What you get:

• Receipt capture: camera for paper receipts at any angle, PDF import for email receipts, barcode scan for single items.
• Three-tier freshness triage with per-item shelf life that learns. Log Used or Threw out and the clock tunes itself to your household.
• Recipe options generated from the ingredients you actually have, preferring items close to their date, with allergen heads-ups and food-safety notes.
• A Category view of your kitchen with a visual emblem for every food family.
• Recurring staples learned across your receipts, exported to Reminders or Calendar as your next shopping list.
• A weekly digest, when you want one.

Private by design: no ads, no tracking, nothing sold or shared. Signing in is optional and adds only your account. Your kitchen data stays on your device and syncs only through your own private iCloud, and diagnostics turn off with one tap.
