The pantry app · free for 7 days

Know what's in your kitchen. Waste less of it.

ShelfSense keeps track of your pantry, fridge and freezer. Scan a barcode or snap your receipt, and it tells you what's expiring, what to cook, and what to buy.

How it works

Three habits, a few seconds each.

1

Put groceries away

Scan each barcode with your phone, or take one photo of the receipt and the whole trip goes in. ShelfSense guesses the best-by date and where it goes.

2

Use things up

Scan it out, tap it, or just say "I used two eggs." Tell it when something got tossed, so your waste score is honest.

3

Shop with a list that writes itself

When something runs low it lands on your shopping list. Check things off at the store, then scan the receipt to put it all away.

Features

Everything your kitchen needs, nothing it doesn't.

Reads your receipts

Paper receipts or screenshots from store and delivery apps. Read on your phone, never uploaded.

Expiring soon

A list that writes itself

Running low or ran out? It's on the list. Share it with a tap.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need the wall unit?

No. The app does everything on its own: scanning with your phone's camera, receipts, recipes, the shopping list and household sharing. ShelfSense Home is an optional extra for people who want a scanner station in the pantry.

Which phones does it work on?

iPhone and Android. It's coming to the App Store first, then Google Play.

How does household sharing work?

Start a household in Settings and share the invite code. Everyone who joins sees the same pantry and shopping list, updated within seconds. One plan covers up to 6 people (or 12 with Big household).

What happens after the free trial?

You choose a plan: $3.99 a month or $20 a year for a household. If you don't subscribe, the app locks, but your pantry stays saved for when you come back.

Is my data private?

Your pantry lives on your phone. If you share a household, it's stored with Google Firebase so your household can see it, under a random ID rather than your name. Receipt photos are read on your phone and never uploaded. No ads, no tracking, and we never sell your information. Read the privacy policy.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Everything works without internet; looking up a brand-new barcode and syncing with your household need a connection.

How accurate are the expiration dates?

They're best guesses based on the type of food, and they learn from the dates you set. Always check the package before eating something.
