Can’t add family members to my inventory list.

Good organization, but keeps closing

I’m loving the organization I have with this app, I can track what’s in my pantry and fridge, and know exactly what I need to use before it expires. It also gives recipe recommendations based on what you have in stock. However, the app CONSISTENTLY shuts down while I’m trying to use it. Especially when marking items “consumed”, it just closes and I have to start over. Hoping for a solution to that, soon.

Hi rweaver9, thank you for the kind words and I'm sorry about the crashes when marking items as consumed. I'd really like to fix this for you. Could you send me an email at feedback@cafournier.com with your device model and iOS version? Please also make sure you're on the latest version, as I've been working on stability. Thanks for your patience, Charles

Letztes Update hat alles gelöscht

Seit der Umstellung von der Familiennutzung auf den „Haushalt“ sind bei uns alle Daten weg und man kann auch nicht mehr zusammen connecten. Der link funktioniert nicht. Schade. Somit ist die App für uns unbrauchbar geworden. Jahresabbo gekündigt und App gelöscht.

Response from developer

Hallo Michn, es tut mir sehr leid für die Probleme nach dem letzten Update. Mit der neuen Version wurden die Daten auf das neue „Haushalt“-System migriert. Dabei können alte geteilte Listen leider nicht mehr wie zuvor funktionieren; stattdessen muss der neue Haushalt erneut geteilt werden. In vielen Fällen sind die Daten nicht endgültig verloren, sondern müssen über den neuen Haushalt wieder korrekt verknüpft werden. Bitte schreiben Sie mir an feedback@cafournier.com, damit ich mir Ihren Fall genauer ansehen und Ihnen beim Wiederherstellen bzw. erneuten Teilen helfen kann. Charles

L’appli dont je rêvais

C’est l’appli que j’aurai aimé connaître plus tôt. Ça me permet d’éviter le gaspillage alimentaire grâce aux rappels et à la facilité d’utilisation. Merci bcp pour l’interface simple et le coût qui reste très bas quand on veut soutenir

Response from developer

Merci beaucoup pour ce super commentaire ! Je suis ravi que l'application vous aide à éviter le gaspillage au quotidien. Charles

Aggressive Monetization. Money.

Pantry inventory? Not free. Pay $70. Deleted.

Love it!!

This app is so useful in helping me organize, shop and reduce food waste! This is exactly what I needed to track what I have when needing to grocery shop and meal plan.
Love the features of adding a picture, categories and adding a price.

Very easy to scan newly purchased food items with the expiration date and to track the date it is opened. Love this! This is so helpful!!
I do agree with a reviewer that it would helpful to track if a product needs to be consumed within “x” days of opening.

Thank you for this beautifully designed app!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for this wonderful review, it truly means a lot! I'm so glad the app is helping you organize and reduce food waste. I really like your idea of tracking how many days a product should be used within after opening, and I'll keep it in mind for a future update. Charles

Fixed in Update

Was broken for a week, but fixed in update

Response from developer

Didn’t work

I was excited to use but the app didn’t save my data. I’d like a refund.

Very pleased

Update
The developer reached out and was able to resolve issue I was having. I am very pleased with the resolution and how this app works. I got it for the camera functionality, and being able to organized my pantry and fridge with the barcode is a huge help. Thank you Charles for reaching out in a timely manner.

Thank you so much for the update and the kind words! I'm really glad we could resolve the issue and that the barcode and camera features are helping you organize your pantry and fridge. Don't hesitate to reach out anytime. Charles

Awesome App!

Allows you to keep an inventory of all your items, as well as a running list of things in your fridge and even has a respective section for a shopping list. It also syncs your data in iCloud.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the great review! I'm glad you're enjoying the inventory, fridge, and shopping list, along with the iCloud sync. Charles

Layout gut, Abo schlecht

Eigentlich ist das eine sinnvoll und schlicht gehaltene App, aber im Gegensatz zu der Darstellung im Apple-App-Store wird einem hier KEIN einmalige zu zahlender Life-Time-Zugang ermöglicht. Das Abo-Modell ist viel zu teuer! … aber der Entwickler meldet sich relativ schnell :-)

Response from developer

Danke für dein Feedback! Die Lifetime-Option ist derzeit vorübergehend nicht verfügbar, wird aber bald wieder im Upgrade-Bereich in den App-Einstellungen erscheinen. Vielen Dank für deine Geduld! Charles

Leider funktioniert die App nicht wie sie soll

Wir mussten leider unser Geld zurückerstatten lassen, da vom Support keine Reaktion mehr kam und unser Problem nach über einer Woche nicht gelöst wurde. Das Grundprinzip dieser App ist es, gemeinsam mit weiteren Personen im Haushalt, seinen Vorrat und Bestand an Lebensmitteln und Co. im Überblick zu behalten. Dies war genau das, was mein Partner und ich gesucht hatten. Die meisten bieten kein Co-Working an. Leider hat genau diese Funktion nur bedingt funktioniert. Die neu hinzugefügten Artikel von meinem Partner werden mir nicht angezeigt, genauso wenig wenn etwas verbraucht oder weggeworfen wurde. Meine Aktionen sieht er allerdings, aber auch nur teilweise. Wir haben alles über die iCloud geteilt und verbunden, daher dürften diese Probleme nicht sein. Wirklich schade, aber so hat die App keinen Nutzen für uns!

Response from developer

Danke für Ihr Feedback! Die Synchronisation wurde in der neuesten Version unserer App deutlich verbessert. Wir würden uns freuen, wenn Sie der App noch einmal eine Chance geben. Charles

Great app

Love this

Works great for what it is

I think this app has a lot of potential but it doesn’t quite do what I hoped. All it does is track expiry dates on food. This app would be great if:

- You could indicate how much of something you have. It’s one thing to add a bottle of ketchup but if it’s 3/4 empty then you have an indicator of when you might run out.
- Categories. I’d like to be able to sort by Dairy, Condiments, etc.
-A way to auto add an item to a grocery list (or even better “smart” grocery lists that build based on expiry dates and date added.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I see a lot of value in quantity tracking, categories, and smart grocery lists I’ll keep them in mind as I improve the app. Charles

Excellent App to Help Prevent Food Waste

I have used another application for a number of years to help me track food expiration dates, but decided to give this one a try. Very happy I did, it’s super easy to use and has a pretty extensive food database. And I don’t even have to type in the expiration date, it reads it itself! Well done.

The only feature I can think of is to show if a package of something has been opened. Sometimes packages say things like “consume within five days of opening“ and it would be nice to be able to track that.

Response from developer

Thank you for your kind words and great suggestion! I really like the idea of tracking opened packages and will definitely consider it for future updates. Charles

Fantastic

My wife and I have explored various grocery list apps to share our shopping lists, and we have found this app to be the best by far! Its customization features are outstanding, making it incredibly easy to manage our lists, pantry, fridge, and any items we want to purchase. You can effortlessly create tailored lists by store or any category you need. Overall, it's an excellent tool for organizing your shopping experience. Great job on this app!

Pas complète

Il manque à cette application une partie recette avec suggestion selon les ingrédients que l’on possède
Si vous rajouter ça je paye l’abonnement mais je suis deg pour le moment car mon but c’est de suivre mes articles et en même tant savoir ce que je peux faire à manger avec mes propres recettes

Response from developer

Bonjour, Merci pour votre retour ! Effectivement je compte ajouter une partie proposition de recette dans l’application en fonction des ingrédients que l’on possède. Cette fonctionnalité devrait arrivé d’ici septembre / octobre. Charles

Love the App

Great app to save money and Food!

Fridge Buddy Date

Great product with the exception that it will not recognize Canadian Date format

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback. Regarding the unrecognized date format, could you send me an email at feedback@cafournier.com with an example of the date? Charles

Fridge & MORE

This app is great for inventorying any supplies that have a barcode! I’m looking forward to knowing what supplies I have & what I need to buy!

Update: i requested the ability to duplicate items & the developer came through in a blink. A great job, well done!!

Response from developer

Thank you for your enthusiastic review! Your feedback is invaluable in making the app even better. Best, Charles
