## What is Geblom?

Most food gets thrown away for one reason: nobody remembered it was there. Scan a grocery receipt and Geblom turns your shopping into an organized pantry. Items are identified, named, dated, and added with no typing. Then Geblom tells you what needs using while there is still time to enjoy it.

Scan a receipt. Skip the typing.

Point your camera at your grocery receipt and let Geblom do the rest. It reads the receipt, identifies what you bought, and gives each item an estimated use by date. Abbreviations become clear product names, so something like "CHKN CARB" can become "Chicken." If Geblom is not confident about an item, it flags it for you to review instead of quietly guessing.

Scan a barcode

Adding one thing rather than a whole shop? Point the camera at the product barcode and Geblom looks it up and fills in the name for you. No typing, and no hunting through a list to find the right product.

Know what needs using

Open Geblom and see what needs your attention. A summary shows what has expired, what should be used soon, and what is still good, and you can tap a category to focus. Each item has its own illustration, so your pantry is easy to scan without reading every entry. Less searching, less forgetting, less food wasted.

Dates that stay right

Geblom estimates a use by date from the item it identifies, so you do not have to enter every date by hand. Found the date printed on the package? Enter it and Geblom keeps it, and your confirmed date will not be replaced by an estimate. Correct a name that was scanned wrong and the estimate updates to match.

Share it with your household

Keep everyone on the same page with one shared pantry. Invite someone using a code and you both see the same items, so when something is added or used your household stays up to date. Everyone knows what is already at home before buying another one.

Reminders before food goes off

A reminder is only useful if it arrives while you can still act on it. Geblom notifies you two days before an item is due, giving you time to cook it, freeze it, or share it. The goal is simple: help food get eaten instead of forgotten.

Geblom Plus

Want more from your pantry? Upgrade to Geblom Plus.

Recipe ideas turn what is about to expire into something to cook tonight. Geblom picks out what needs using first and suggests dishes built around it, with a short method and roughly how long it takes. No shopping for extra ingredients, and no scrolling through recipe sites for something that fits what you actually have.

Custom reminder timing lets you choose when Geblom tells you. Pick one, three, five or seven days ahead instead of the standard two, and pick more than one if you want an early warning and a last call.

One tap portion logging is for cooked food. Set how many servings you made and Geblom dates the whole batch, then tap once as you eat each one instead of opening the item and editing the number every time.

Geblom is free to use for as long as you like, and Plus is there if you want it.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.3.1 — 2026-09-02

What’s New

This update brings a more refined experience across Geblom, with improved typography, a redesigned pantry, smarter food handling, and cleaner item management.

A more polished look

Geblom now uses Manrope throughout the app, providing a cleaner, more consistent type system with improved readability across every screen.

A redesigned pantry

The Pantry has been rebuilt to make freshness information easier to understand at a glance. Updated summary cards clearly show item counts and recommended actions, with visual states that make navigating between Fresh, Expiring Soon, Expired, and All items more intuitive.

Pantry sections now display item counts alongside concise freshness guidance. Countdown information uses status colors to highlight urgency, while dates remain clear and easy to read. Today’s date is also displayed at the top for additional context.

Smarter food storage and shelf life

Geblom now handles more product variations with greater accuracy. Fresh and cold pressed juices are recognized differently from shelf stable cartons, bottles, and frozen concentrates. Smoothies also receive appropriate freshness dates.

Storage and shelf life logic has been improved for foods including corned beef, sardines, chicken, anchovies, and other meats. Geblom now better distinguishes between fresh, canned, and frozen products instead of treating different forms of the same food alike.

Generic meat items now default to appropriate refrigerated storage with a freshness date when more specific information is unavailable.

Shelf life tracking has also been refined for nonfood and household products. Items such as dry pet food receive useful dates, while products such as paper towels and soap are no longer assigned unnecessary expiration tracking.

Simpler item management

Adding items and reviewing scanned products now use cleaner, more unified forms. Related fields are grouped together to reduce visual clutter and make editing faster.

Scan Review also provides clearer feedback, identifying items that need attention while confirming when everything is ready to add.

Additional refinements

This release includes improvements to pantry summaries, shopping list presentation, text field typography, item classification, storage defaults, and overall visual consistency throughout the app.

### 1.3.0 — 2026-08-27

Smarter scanning

Scan a receipt or a barcode and Geblom now works out more than the name. It figures out what the item actually is, where it belongs, and roughly how long it keeps, before you've touched anything.

A frozen chicken goes to the freezer with months on it, not the fridge with two days. A tin of sardines goes in the cupboard. Fresh sardines don't. The same goes for canned, tinned and fresh anything: what the label says about how it was sold now decides where it lands.

Everything gets a home

Every item you add or scan now gets a storage suggestion, including the things that aren't food. Dish soap and paper towels go in the cupboard. So do shampoo, sunscreen and vitamins, but those three get a date too, because they do run out. Paper towels don't, so Geblom doesn't pretend otherwise.

Better dates on the food you cook

Picking servings now tells Geblom the item is a meal rather than an ingredient. It moves to the fridge and gets a few days, whatever the dish is called. Leftovers, a rotisserie chicken, a tray of lasagna: you don't have to explain what it is.

We also fixed a long list of foods that were being told the wrong thing. Lasagna was being dated like a box of dried pasta. Coconut milk was being chilled like dairy. Apples and bananas came back with no date at all if you typed them as plurals.

A rebuilt pantry

The pantry screen is new. Four cards at the top show what's expired, what needs using and what's still fine, and tapping one filters the list. Underneath, a freshness bar shows the whole kitchen at a glance.

The rest of the app got the same treatment: cleaner cards, more consistent spacing, and forms that don't scatter one set of fields across four boxes.

And the small things

A first run now explains what the app does instead of showing an empty screen. The scan page's tips are always visible rather than hidden behind a tap. Search finally tells you why nothing came back.

### 1.2.4 — 2026-08-24

The pantry got a redesign.

Every item now shows how many days are left on a badge with a clock, alongside a pin marking where it is stored. Units are back too, so a carton reads "1 box" rather than just "1".

The summary strip above your list now counts everything, including items with no date yet. It used to leave those out, so the numbers never quite added up. Scan review has the same treatment. Items flagged for a second look are marked more clearly, the "Add date" prompt is easier to spot, and every row shows where the item is headed. Dates now read "Aug 26, 2026" everywhere in the app. Section headers and filter chips got tidied up so a long label no longer gets cut off.

### 1.2.3 — 2026-08-19

Geblom Plus arrives, along with better dates for the food you cook yourself.

Recipe ideas, in Geblom Plus

Open the pantry and Geblom now offers to suggest something to cook from whatever is going off soon. It looks at the food you already have, picks out what needs using first, and comes back with dishes built around it, each with a short method and roughly how long it takes. No shopping for extra ingredients.

Choose how far ahead it looks

Geblom Plus already let you pick when reminders arrive. Now that choice shapes your recipe ideas too. Set it to seven days and Geblom draws on everything expiring inside the week rather than only what is nearly gone, so there is more to cook with.

Cooked food, dated properly

Add a meal, choose servings as the unit, and Geblom dates it as cooked food instead of guessing from the name. Three days in the fridge, two months in the freezer. Before this a chili got the shelf life of a chili pepper and a turkey sandwich got raw poultry. Cooked dishes also get their own icon in the pantry, so a lasagna no longer shows up as cheese. This is free for everyone.

One tap portion logging, in Geblom Plus

Cooked a batch? Set how many servings you made and Geblom dates the whole lot at once. Then tap once on the pantry list as you eat each serving, rather than opening the item and editing the number every time.

Editing that feels like the rest of the app

Correcting an item and correcting a scanned receipt line both open a proper page now, with a back arrow and the tab bar still in place, instead of a sheet sliding over everything.

Receipt scanning improvements

Item codes are stripped when a receipt prints them in their own column, so a row no longer arrives named after a number. Store headers are skipped rather than saved as groceries. Accented characters from the scan are folded down before matching, and only consecutive duplicate lines are merged, so two genuinely separate purchases of the same thing stay as two items. More retailer abbreviations are expanded into real names.

Smaller things

Filter chips show real counts up to 999 instead of stopping at 99. The move to pantry action on the shopping list sits with the list now instead of in the corner of the app bar, so it is where your thumb already is when you finish checking things off. Suggestions on the shopping list moved below your items rather than pushing them off the screen. Selected chips and buttons are outlined rather than filled, which reads better against the food icons. Sixteen new food icons.

Fixes

Blueberry muffins drew a blueberry, chocolate cup cake drew a chocolate bar, chicken wraps drew a roast chicken, and every fruit juice drew the same orange glass. All fixed. Notification messages no longer say two days when you have chosen something else.

### 1.2.2 — 2026-08-16

Better food icons throughout your pantry. Fruit juices now show their fruit, and dozens of items have their own illustration instead of a generic symbol. Searching for an item you do not have now offers to add it, with the name already filled in. Filters and section headings stay visible while you search.
