## What is Friddy?

**Friddy is an AI Food OS that manages the entire food journey.**

From grocery shopping and storing food to cooking and consuming everything before it goes to waste, Friddy seamlessly connects every stage of your food cycle in one app.

## Inventory Management — Make Your Fridge Smarter

Friddy begins tracking expiry dates as soon as you add an item. Ingredients approaching their expiry dates are clearly color-coded, while timely notifications help you use them before they go to waste.

* Manage your fridge, freezer, and pantry in one place
* Receive alerts for food approaching its expiry date
* View inventory levels by category at a glance

## AI Recipe Recommendations — What Can I Make Today?

Friddy’s AI recommends recipes based on the ingredients you already have. Recipes that use ingredients closest to expiring are prioritized, helping you reduce food waste. Every recommendation is personalized according to your dietary preferences and allergy information.

* Personalized recipe recommendations based on your inventory
* Prioritizes ingredients approaching their expiry dates
* Accounts for dietary preferences and allergies

## AI Recipe Analyzer — From One Link to Your Shopping List

Found a recipe you like on Naver Blog, 10,000 Recipe, or Maangchi? Simply copy and paste the link. Friddy AI automatically identifies the required ingredients, compares them with what you already have, and instantly shows you what is missing. Missing ingredients can then be added directly to your shopping list.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 4.2.0 — 2026-08-16

Say it instead of typing it.
Just say what you need — "two milks, a dozen eggs, tofu" — all in one go, or with pauses while you check the fridge. Friddy keeps listening either way. When you are done, everything you said comes back as separate items you can correct before adding, and anything you are allergic to is flagged up front.
Speech is turned into text on your device and the audio is not stored.
Also in this version
