## What is Pantry Food Expiry Tracker?

Stop in front of the fridge for one second — that’s all Pantry needs.

Pantry is a voice-first food tracker. As you put groceries away, just say each item and its date, and Pantry records the best-before and use-by dates from the label — logged in seconds with a category icon. No tapping through forms, no stopping to type. The whole idea is simple: don’t get stuck in front of the fridge.

WHY PANTRY
• Add by voice — set your phone nearby, name items as you unpack, then stop; everything is split into separate entries at once.
• Never miss a date — items are grouped by Expired / Due today / Due tomorrow / Within 3 days / Within a week / Later, so what matters is always on top.
• Smart dates — say “tomorrow”, “in 3 days”, “next Friday”, or “Jan 5”, and Pantry always reads it as a future date. No date? It estimates a sensible shelf life by category.
• Auto categories — food is sorted into Vegetables, Fruit, Meat, Seafood, Dairy, Eggs, Grains, Prepared, Beverages, Condiments, Frozen, Desserts, and more, each with its own icon.
• Fix it later — anything unclear is flagged so you can tap and correct the name, date, or category in a moment.

EVERYDAY TOOLS
• Home Screen widgets and a Lock Screen / Control Center control to add food or see what’s expiring.
• Siri & App Shortcuts and a long-press Quick Action to start recording instantly.
• Mark items “Used” with a swipe; auto-tidy moves expired items out of the way.
• One-tap recipe search using your soon-to-expire ingredients.

PANTRY+ (OPTIONAL SUBSCRIPTION)
Pantry is free for keeping about 40 items at a time. Pantry+ unlocks:
• Unlimited items
• Hands-free recording on Apple Watch — tap once and talk while you unpack; the audio is processed on your iPhone and added to your food list.
• Create Shared Pantry and send new invitations — share food and expiry dates through iCloud. Invited people can join for free. Existing sharing continues if you cancel; only new invitations pause.

Pricing: ¥100 / month or ¥500 / year, with a 1-month free trial on the yearly plan. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. Subscriptions renew automatically unless turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.

PRIVACY
No Pantry account, no ads, no tracking. Your personal food list stays on your device. If you enable Shared Pantry, shared food and expiry dates are stored in the participants’ iCloud accounts. Speech is processed with Apple’s speech recognition. When you choose to send feedback, the message, optional email address, and app/device diagnostics are sent to AkkyApps support; they are not used for advertising or tracking. Voice input follows your device language (English or Japanese).
