TimeJar helps you keep track of expiration dates for the things you use every day, on iPhone and iPad. From skincare and cosmetics to medicine, supplements, baby products, food, pet supplies, and everyday essentials, TimeJar keeps important dates in one place. Add an item and its expiration date to see the days remaining and get a reminder before it expires. For opened products, you can also record the opening date and how long the product lasts after opening. Take a photo, scan text on the packaging, and review the dates it finds. Default reminder settings reduce the need to set up each reminder by hand. The hourglass view gives you a quick, visual sense of what needs attention. Items nearing expiration turn red, while expired items drop to the bottom of the hourglass. Categories keep everything organized, the calendar gives you a clear view of the months ahead, and Home Screen widgets let you check expiration status without opening the app. On iPad, the layout adapts to portrait and landscape orientations and changes in window size. TimeJar also lets you mark items as used up or wasted, helping you spot your usage patterns and make better use of what you already have. Key Features • iPhone and iPad support, with adaptive iPad layouts • Opening dates and shelf life after opening • Automatically calculated days remaining • Visual hourglass view for item status • Item photos and packaging text scanning with date confirmation • Custom expiration reminders and default reminder settings • Custom categories with Starred and Pending filters • Monthly calendar for upcoming expirations • Records of used-up and wasted items, including item value • Home Screen widgets for quick status checks • Searchable notes and data import/export • Records stored locally on your device by default Use more.
