Freshwise — your food freshness manager. Take a photo when you bring food home. Freshwise helps identify the food name, category, quantity, shelf life, and package text, then sorts everything by freshness so you can see what to eat today and what is about to expire. PHOTO LOGGING, WITH AI HELP Take a photo or choose one from your library. Built-in AI vision can extract the name, category, quantity, unit, storage location, and package text, and suggest a storage period. Results fill the form automatically and remain editable. You can also enter food manually without configuring an AI key. FOOD STATUS AT A GLANCE See Fresh, Watch, Soon, Due Today, Expired, Eaten, or Discarded at a glance. Remaining freshness is shown as both a percentage and a number of days. FOCUS ON WHAT NEEDS ATTENTION The home screen surfaces food that is expiring soon, due today, or already expired, sorted by date so you know when to eat, share, freeze, or discard it. EXPIRY REMINDERS Choose local notifications 3 days before, 1 day before, on the due date, or after expiry. Each item sends at most one notification per day. Changing a date reorders reminders; marking food eaten or discarded cancels them. KITCHEN HEALTH SCORE AND WASTE REPORT Each month, see a kitchen health score based on expired, soon-to-expire, and fresh inventory, plus items added, eaten, discarded, and nearing expiry. PRACTICAL FOOD SAFETY TIPS Five guides cover near-expiry food, refrigerator organization, nutrition labels, reheating leftovers, and freezing portions. QUICK TEMPLATES Log common foods such as cut watermelon, leftovers, opened milk, raw meat, and frozen food in seconds, then adjust the details. YOUR AI MODEL Connect your own vision model through a compatible API. The API key is stored securely in the system Keychain. Your custom model is preferred, with an automatic fallback when needed. LOCAL FIRST Your records and food photos stay on your iPhone. There is no backend, account system, or cloud sync. Supports Simplified Chinese, English, Korean, and Japanese, with Light, Dark, and Automatic appearance modes. Freshwise is designed for everyday kitchen management, shared refrigerators, meal planning, and reducing food waste. AI identification and freshness suggestions are for everyday management only. Consider the food’s appearance, smell, storage conditions, and package instructions when making safety decisions.
