Read full descriptionHide full description
Fridoo helps you track what's in your fridge, freezer and pantry so nothing expires unnoticed. A focused, minimal tracker that keeps your food visible โ no account, no ads, no data harvesting. PAY ONCE. USE FOREVER. No subscription. No monthly fees. No ads. You pay once when you buy Fridoo and you get it โ including all future updates โ for good. The way apps used to work. WHAT FRIDOO DOES FOR YOU โข Barcode scanner: add products in seconds โ name and category are filled in automatically โข All your items in one place with quantity, category and location โข Color-coded freshness indicators: what's fresh, expiring soon, or already expired โข Push reminders 14 days, 1 week, 3 days, or 1 day before expiry โ you choose the intervals โข Swipe gestures to mark items as consumed or wasted in a single move โข Dashboard with totals, upcoming expirations and consumption stats WHY FRIDOO? Most pantry apps demand a subscription, an account, or ship your data off to a cloud. Fridoo takes the opposite approach: โข One-time purchase โ no subscription, no hidden costs โข 100% offline out of the box โ no sign-up, no profile โข iCloud sync is strictly optional and runs through your own Apple Account โ across your own devices, not between different people โข No ads, no analytics, no tracking of any kind โข Works on iPhone and iPad with automatic sync โข Four languages (English, German, Spanish, French) with live in-app switching CATEGORIES AND LOCATIONS Fridoo ships with 13 food categories โ from dairy, produce and meat to fish, bakery, beverages, frozen items, condiments, snacks and more. Three storage locations cover day-to-day life: fridge, freezer, pantry. BARCODE SCANNER Scan instead of type. Point your camera at the barcode โ Fridoo identifies the product, fills in the name and category automatically and jumps straight to the expiry date prompt. Product data comes from the open OpenFoodFacts database. Only the barcode is sent, nothing about you. Already-scanned products are cached locally, so they work instantly even when offline. NOTIFICATIONS ON YOUR TERMS You decide when Fridoo reminds you. Pick any combination of intervals (14 days, 1 week, 3 days, 1 day before expiry) and set the hour of day the app notifies you. All reminders are scheduled locally on your device โ nothing ever leaves your iPhone. WASTE AND CONSUMPTION TRACKING Mark items as consumed or wasted with a swipe. Fridoo calculates your consumption ratio so you can see at a glance how much of what you buy actually gets eaten โ and where the waste is. DARK MODE AND INSTANT LANGUAGE SWITCHING Light and dark appearance modes, plus follow-the-system option. Switch languages anytime in Settings without restarting the app. PRIVACY FIRST Fridoo is a local app. There is no Fridoo server, no account, no tracking. If you turn on iCloud sync, your data travels encrypted through your own private iCloud account โ and only then. Otherwise everything stays on your device. IMPORT AND EXPORT Your data belongs to you. Export every item as a JSON file with one tap โ for backup or when moving to a new device. Import is just as simple. WHO IS FRIDOO FOR? โข Households that want to throw away less food โข Bulk-shoppers and meal preppers โข Anyone who wants the same overview on iPhone and iPad โข Anyone tired of signing up for yet another cloud app Cut your food waste, save money, and keep your kitchen under control. Download Fridoo and get started in under a minute.

You freeze meals, you forget what is inside, and it ends up in the bin. You open the chest freezer, dig to the bottom, and find a frosted bag with no date on it. Was that chicken from March or October? Did you make that bolognese three months ago or six? When in doubt, you throw it out. Again. Glacko tells you what is in your freezer, how long it has been there, and what to eat before it turns. WHAT GLACKO DOES โข ADD IN UNDER 10 SECONDS Product name, drawer, quantity, that is all. The freezing date is set to today automatically. Tap "Freeze" and it is saved. Even with cold hands, even with a child calling you. โข ALWAYS KNOW WHAT TO USE UP FIRST The "Use up" tab shows you in one second what has been in your freezer the longest, sorted by age. The frost gauge shifts from icy blue to amber as a product gets older. You see at a glance what to take out tonight. โข FIND ANY PRODUCT IN 5 SECONDS At the supermarket, wondering whether you still have salmon? Search the app: name, drawer, quantity, date. Instant answer. You stop buying what you already have. โข ORGANISED BY DRAWER, SHELF OR BIN, FREEZER AND FRIDGE Upright freezer, chest freezer in the garage, fridge with shelves and a veg drawer: you create your zones exactly as they are at home. Drawer 1, Top shelf, Veg drawer, Garage chest, name them however you like. Item moved to a different zone? Move it in one tap. Switch instantly between zone view and category view. โข BUILT-IN STORAGE TIMES Meat, fish, cooked meals, vegetables: Glacko works out a suggested storage time based on the product type. Shown as gentle guidance, never blocking, never alarming. WHY GLACKO INSTEAD OF A BIG KITCHEN APP โข BUILT FOR YOUR FREEZER AND FRIDGE, NOT YOUR RECIPES No barcodes to scan (your home-cooked meals do not have any). No recipes to browse. Just your freezer and fridge, organised exactly the way you want. โข EXPORT IN ONE TAP Share your inventory as CSV or JSON via the iOS share sheet, for your family, for yourself, for backup. โข NO ADVERTS No ads, no banners, no tracking. The full inventory (drawers, photos, storage times) is free to use for up to 20 products. Glacko+ (optional) removes that limit, adds iCloud backup, and real-time family sharing: partner, roommate or family see and edit the same inventory. Stop throwing away food because you forgot about it. Download Glacko. Privacy Policy : https://kenoby.fr/applications/glacko/privacy Terms of Use : https://kenoby.fr/applications/glacko/terms
