ExpireMate helps you keep track of dates on the things you use at home. Take a photo of a package, let AI read the product details, then review the suggested name and dates before saving. You can also add an item manually. Use more than one photo when the information is split across the front and back of a package. WHAT YOU CAN TRACK β€’ Food in your fridge, freezer, pantry, and kitchen β€’ Medicine and household health supplies β€’ Skincare and cosmetics β€’ Other items with a date worth remembering STAY AHEAD OF EXPIRATION β€’ See upcoming and expired items in one list β€’ Set a primary reminder from 1 to 30 days before the date β€’ Receive a local notification when notifications are enabled β€’ Open an item from a notification to review its details ORGANIZE YOUR HOME INVENTORY β€’ Add categories and tags β€’ Filter items by tag β€’ Review the date, production date, and notes for each item β€’ Use the widget to see items that need attention FREE AND PRO The free version includes up to 5 active items and AI recognition without a separate per-scan fee. Pro adds unlimited active items, secondary reminders, global reminder defaults, statistics, family sharing, and data import and export. Availability of iCloud and sharing features depends on your device, account, and system settings. PRIVACY AND ACCURACY AI recognition requires a network connection. Always review dates and product details before saving. AI suggestions are not a guarantee that food, medicine, or cosmetics are safe to use and are not medical or food-safety advice. ExpireMate is a tracking and reminder tool. Notifications are delivered by iOS and may be affected by device settings, Focus, Low Power Mode, or system behavior. ExpireMate does not replace the date printed on a package or advice from a pharmacist, doctor, manufacturer, or public health authority. Start with the items you want to use soon, confirm their dates, and let ExpireMate help you remember what needs attention. PURCHASE OPTIONS Pro is available as a monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscription, or a lifetime one-time purchase. Current localized prices are shown in the app. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple Account settings. Privacy Policy: https://expiremate.app/en/privacy Terms of Use: https://expiremate.app/en/terms Support: https://expiremate.app/en/help

Track the items, keep the memories. Most things you buy vanish into order history. This app turns them into a collection you can actually see β€” what you own, what it cost, and whether it was worth it. AI IMPORT Drop in an order screenshot. Name, price and purchase date are recognized automatically β€” no typing, no forms. COST PER DAY Every item shows its price divided by days owned. The longer you use something, the cheaper it gets. See at a glance what's truly worth it. ASSET STATS In use, retired, or sold β€” your belongings are assets. Track your total at a glance. TIMELINE Every purchase on the record. Sold something? It gets settled too: net cost, days used, cost per day. SHELF WALL Items are cut out automatically and pinned to your wall like stickers. Everything you've bought deserves a spot.
