We're here to help you waste less food
There are four ways to add items:
1. Barcode scan — Tap the scan button and point your camera at a barcode. FreshKeep looks up the product automatically.
2. Receipt scan — Scan a grocery receipt and FreshKeep will add all items at once.
3. Voice input — Tap the microphone and say what you bought (e.g., "Add a gallon of milk to the fridge").
4. Manual entry — Tap the + button and fill in the details yourself.
FreshKeep uses a built-in database of 200+ common foods with default shelf life estimates. Estimates adjust based on storage location (fridge, freezer, pantry, counter) and whether the item has been opened.
You can always override any expiration date — FreshKeep will remember your preference for future items of the same type.
FreshKeep uses the Open Food Facts database (255M+ products). Some store-brand or regional products may not be listed yet.
If a product isn't found, you'll get a manual entry form pre-filled with whatever was scanned. You can also search by product name instead of barcode.
Yes! FreshKeep is offline-first. All core features — adding items, tracking expiration, shopping lists, notifications — work without an internet connection.
Barcode lookup and recipe website fetching require an internet connection, but you can always add items manually.
Go to Settings > Data Export to export your pantry data as a CSV file. You can save it to Files, email it, or open it in any spreadsheet app.
FreshKeep sends reminders before items expire. By default, you'll be notified 3 days before, 1 day before, and on the day of expiration at 8:00 AM.
You can customize notification timing per item or globally in Settings > Notifications. Make sure notifications are enabled for FreshKeep in iOS Settings.
No. FreshKeep does not sell your data, show ads, or track you. All data is stored on your device. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
Delete individual items by swiping left in the pantry view. To clear everything, delete the app — all locally stored data is removed automatically. If you use iCloud sync, manage synced data in iOS Settings > [Your Name] > iCloud > Manage Storage.
