Never forget an expiry date again. Drop That Due helps you track all your expiring items in one simple, offline place. Whether it’s food, medicine, cosmetics, documents, or appliances — add them once, and let the app remind you before they expire. Simple & Quick Entry Add items with just a few taps: name, category, expiry date, purchase date, quantity, notes, and custom reminder days. Choose from preset categories like Food, Electronics, Medicine, Cosmetics, Documents, or create your own. Smart Reminders – Even When App Is Closed Schedule local notifications so you never miss a due date. Set a default reminder time or adjust it per item. Notifications appear even if the app is not running – because iOS handles them reliably. Badge Count at a Glance See the number of expiring or soon‑to‑expire items right on your home screen icon. The badge updates automatically as you add, edit, or consume items. Calendar Integration With one tap, add any item to your system calendar as an all‑day event.
