  • Disappointing!

    I have an old iPad mini which sole purpose at the moment is cataloguing our freezer content. No more updates is very disappointing. Just another kick in the pants for those of us still holding onto “outdated” hardware.
    1 star for the new version.
  • Glitchy and missing stuff

    Such a shame. I liked this because the interface was cleaner, simpler, but it is glitchy with the expiration dates, categories, and editing the names of things. It automatically puts things in categories or freezer-pantry-fridge that I want to move to a different area, but if there’s any kind of quantity you can’t do that. I wish I had the option to build a grocery list directly from my inventory, not just recently added inventory. ...little annoyances here and there that pile up and make the app frustrating. Bummed.

  • Keeps me organized

    Great app that helps me keep organized and stop wasting money at the grocery store buying items I already have at home. A couple of improvements to the Category function would be helpful - ability to rename existing categories, ability to select a category grouping for the new categories I create (example add a new category for Veal to the Meat section), and ability to delete Categories that I don’t need :)

  • Started well, but glitched?

    Had high hopes for this app. Scanned around 40 something pantry items. Noticed that there was “share lists”, which I thought was a possibility to share it with your household, had to register in order to do that. Synchronisation had some errors, but eventually worked out. But then, suddenly I had 500 items! All my items were multiplied 2 to 5 times, if not more! Tried to delete one item, which was impossible! First of all, I couldn’t select only one item of 5 identical ones, secondly, it would not delete it. Tried to close and reopen the app, log out and log back in, but nothing changed. Really just wasted my time.
    My tip, if you do get this app, do not create a user, as that will mess everything up. Good concept of the app though.

  • Love the app, very useful

    It’s been now two months that I’m using this app and I can happily confirm that it works. I had many times been forced to throw expired food in the bin since I’ve missed their expiry date. Sure maybe it’s a very easy thing for some people to remember all the dates and have everything under control but I definitely found that this app was the solution for me. Since I’m working long hours recently and within Covid-19 pandemic situation this app has become a number one tool to ensure I’m using all the food in time causing me to do less shopping thus reducing my risk of catching the virus. I’ve noticed a very easy channel of communication via email with the developer who takes tour feedback and works on the reported bugs and improvements which is always great to see in the app you’re using really often. I can recommend this app for anyone to download and try. 👍

  • Not bad, few small changes would make it much better

    It not a bad little product, but 2 of the 5 items scanned had the wrong category. I can correct the category on the item I scanned, but if I scan the same barcode again it ignores the category I set and reverts to the original one.

    A settings where I could disable the date picker and have 3 number inputs for day/month/year as this would be much quicker to input dates

  • Very good app

    I really like this app. I was looking for something to keep track of the contents of my freezer. I was starting to write the contents down and thought I would have a look to see if there was an app to do this.

    I was very impressed with this app and really like the barcode function. I have now added the contents of my freezer and find this great when I was out shopping. This will save me buying items that I already have. Don’t know how many packets of peas I found at the bottom of the freezer.

    I also like the way that it will track of my waste.

    Looking forward to seeing how this app develops.

  • No waste

    I have used this app for awhile and generally have liked it. I went to check my inventory and have been locked out of some locations. I paid a one time price for access to 3 pantries, 3 freezers, 3 refrigerators. Without any notice the app has switched to a subscription and locked me out of seeing most of my inventory. This is an unfair business practice and I would not buy any app from this developer. It’s sneaky and malicious.

    After emailing with the developer this problem has been resolved satisfactorily. It is a great app for keeping inventory and modifications were made quickly once they were aware of the problem.

    Hi Snow Shark, thanks for your review. I understand your discontempt, but please send us a mail at nowasteapp@gmail.com and we will make sure that you keep your upgrade. You have an older purchased version of the app that we did not take into account when switching the upgrade of the app, we apologize for the mistake and are about to send out an update with a fix. We are happy to hear that you have used the app for a while! Best, Kasper
  • Okay app

    Would be nice to include pictures of items or make it easier to change things. Keeps popping up that there are “bugs” and issues loading items to lists. Kind of annoying.
  • Great little app and a one time purchase!

    I hate the current trend of paying a subscription to use even the simplest of apps. This is a very well thought out, very useful free piece of software that I use and will continue to use long term. It looks great AND the premium features are very useful and a very modest ONE TIME PURCHASE. Very pleased and highly recommend.
