Love it

I never knew what was behind in the back of the refrigerator or inside the pantry. Now at a glance, I can see what I have and can plan meals accordingly. Also will avoid buying doubles.

If it only worked as advertised

I spent days putting my entire food inventory in and now some of it is missing. What’s going on? I can find the food in my timeline but it doesn’t show up in my inventory. What a waste of time. I would have sent a private note but this is the only way I can see to communicate

good simple pantry app

it’s a really good app and really useful when I’m out and can’t remember if I have something or not in the fridge or pantry. The one thing I really don’t like is that everytime the app refreshes on a new day or a new release happens all the ingredients are marked as a blue dot which usually means you added something new, even though it’s been there already.

Good, but could be better

This works pretty well. It’s great that I can share it with my spouse and we can keep track of what’s in our pantry. The one thing that would make it easier to use if it was really quick to get to the barcode scanner. They could do that by adding actions if you press and hold on the icon on the Home Screen of your iPhone.
But the best way of all would be to have a custom URL protocol or a Shortcuts action. If they did that somebody could put an NFC tag on their pantry door, tapping it with their phone would launch them right to the barcode scanner. You could even have two tags: one for looking something up and a second for adding items.
This is an iPhone app: it would be great if it took advantage of useful features of iOS to make it less of a hassle to use.

Perfectly functional

This pantry inventory app that allows you to scan barcodes and add expiration dates two items works amazingly well. Scanning the barcode pulls back pictures of the exact item. It is very quick and very easy to use. It even makes a satisfying 'boop' sound when the item is scanned. I'll be subbing when I hit the limit.

Practical and helpful!!

Very helpful so far! Easy to use and love the expiration tracking.

I wish it had a ‘desired stock qty’ per item that would make creating a generated shopping list more accurate, but either way, this app is ABSOLUTELY worth using.

simply brilliant

I have been looking for a simple pantry app that is not overly americanised or tied to services i don’t need. In fact it’s the first app i considered spending money on! Only change would be the ability to store multiple types of food in different storage location. So tinned fruit for example in pantry and baking cupboard.

Almost perfect

I have been using the app for a few months and it really good. Scans fast and easy to add unidentified items and move products around. My only struggle is that I REALLY want to set my own categories and be able to organize the categories manually. I waste too much time finding and organizing based on automatic categories.

Great App

It’s so easy to keep up with what’s in my pantry now. It prevents me from purchasing duplicates and tells me when products are about to expire. I highly recommend it.

Great!

For more than a decade, I’ve been relying on this app for my inventory and grocery shopping. It enables me to have separate shopping lists for each of the stores at which I shop. Love it!

Really handy, but gross that you charge money to add any more than 200 items…

Please don’t mess with a good thing lol, it works amazing as it is, update it if you need to but the way you can scan everything in and it usually knows exactly what it is is so cool, and in the event it doesn’t, I like that I can contribute a picture and some info, and then it WILL be recognized by someone else’s app, keep this the way it is more or less and I’ll keep using it

Lifesaving!

I’m not sure what I would do without this app! Honestly. I’ve used it for many years now and it’s proven indispensable. I’m disabled, bed bound, and unable to visually access my refrigerator, pantry, etc. I use the app to keep track of everything, with my caregivers scanning in new items. I especially love the product photographs as I can show them exactly what they need to be looking for when I request something. The shopping list section works brilliantly. There’s a bit of a learning curve involved, but I now have my usage tweaked to suit me. I really appreciate all the flexibility. There are still new discoveries from time to time. Thanks, Pantry Check developers!

Nothing to compare it with yet

So far there is a learning curve.

Stellar

Review: The End of "Do We Have Eggs?" Panic
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
If you’ve ever stood in the grocery aisle staring blankly at a carton of milk, wondering if the one at home is half-full or a science experiment, Pantry Check is about to change your life.
It’s rare to find an app that actually solves a "mental load" problem rather than just adding another digital chore to your list, but this is it. Here is why it’s a permanent resident on my home screen:
Why It’s Stellar:
* Effortless Inventory: The barcode scanner is snappy and reliable. I spent twenty minutes scanning my pantry, and now I have a digital twin of my kitchen.
* Expiration Tracking: This is the "killer feature." It sends gentle nudges when items are nearing their end. It’s saved me dozens of dollars by reminding me to use that heavy cream before it turns into cheese.
* Smart Shopping Lists: It bridges the gap between "I'm out of this" and "I need to buy this" perfectly. When you use the last of the olive oil in the app, it can automatically jump onto your shopping list.
* Reduced Waste: Beyond saving money, it feels great to actually finish what you buy. It’s the ultimate tool for sustainable, conscious eating.
The Bottom Line:
Pantry Check turns the chaos of a kitchen into a streamlined system. It’s intuitive, sleek, and—most importantly—it works. Whether you’re a meal prepper or just someone tired of buying a third jar of cumin "just in case," you need this app.
"I no longer manage a pantry; I manage a high-efficiency kitchen, all thanks to this app."

很棒的应用

如果可以选到期日时可以改成日历模式就非常方便了

Very Handy

I am so happy I found this app. My wife doesn’t do steps and all our extra supplies are downstairs. Instead of running down with a list or trying to remember her list for getting meals ready or ordering things, I can just open the app and find what we have.

I find the interface a little inconsistent but once you get a hang of it, it’s usable. I wish there were features that could be turned on and off. In my example, expiration dates are useless. Let me turn them off.

Easy to use!

I appreciate the ease of use, the low cost and the ability to share with my family!

Wish I had found this sooner

Honestly, I love this amp. I can use it as a shopping list and add it to my inventory. I'm kind of a person that is a freak about inventory so especially being in a career for 20 years doing inventory.

Amazing !

Absolutely loving this app. Sooo efficient, user friendly !

I’m obsessed

I’m not sure I’ve ever written a review for an app before but I am in love with this one. It is so clean and easy to use and does exactly what I need it to do: quickly and easily help me keep track of what’s in my house and pantry. It has a clean interface with no ads and/or gimmicks. Love the crowdsourced product info and images. If I could give it 10 stars I would!
