Expiration Alarm vs refrigerDATE

Track every shelf life. Waste nothing. Stop letting food spoil in the fridge, medicine expire in the drawer, or cosmetics go bad on the shelf. Register each item once and a reminder lands at the exact time you set — before anything is wasted. No sign-up, no login. Your data lives only on your device. ■ Who is it for - One-person households who lose track of what is in the fridge - Busy parents juggling family supplements, prescriptions, and pantry stock - Anyone tracking the post-opening shelf life (PAO) of cosmetics — mascara, cream, essence - People on long-term vitamins, probiotics, or prescription refills - Hosts who want to use up leftover ingredients after a party or camping trip - Anyone who tried memo apps or calendars and missed an alert at least once ■ Key features • Camera OCR auto-detection Point the camera at the "use-by" or "expiration date" printed on the packaging — the App reads it for you. Photos from the library work too. Every recognized date passes through a confirmation step, so smudged ink, handwriting, or odd date formats can be fixed in one tap before saving. • Fast manual entry Enter name, category, expiration date, purchase date, memo, and icon on one screen. A reminder is scheduled the moment you save — no second checklist to confirm. • 12 built-in categories Milk, eggs, bread, meat, vegetables, fruit, drinks, canned goods, medicine, cosmetics, cleaning supplies, and "other." Each has its own icon and color, so a quick scroll tells you which group is about to expire. • D-day countdown Every item shows days remaining as D-7, D-3, D-1, D-DAY, or D+2. Items nearing expiration are color-highlighted, and the list stays sorted by urgency even with 100+ items. • Flexible reminders Toggle 7-day, 1-day, and same-day reminders on or off. Set a custom reminder time per item — "medicine at 8 AM, cosmetics at 9 PM" — so reminders fit your routine and never feel like spam. • 100% local storage — no account required All items, photos, OCR output, and notification settings are stored on-device. Nothing is sent to external servers, and everything is deleted when you uninstall the App. Aside from the advertising identifier, no personal data is collected. • Multi-language and dark mode Korean and English with light and dark themes. Follows your system setting automatically, or you can override it. ■ How is it different? Memo apps and calendars are great for recording but expect you to actively check what is about to expire. Expiration Alarm is built for noticing things in time — fire-and-forget once you register an item — and OCR shrinks data entry from 30 seconds per item down to 5. Food thrown out, supplements gone bad, and cosmetics past PAO can quietly cost hundreds of dollars a year. This is the tool focused on stopping that loss. ■ Real-world scenarios - After a grocery run, scan milk, yogurt, and meat one after another. Five minutes covers a week. - When a supplement subscription arrives, OCR the whole box and get a reminder a week before it runs out. - On opening a new cosmetic, enter the PAO (12M / 6M) shown on the jar so you finish it before it spoils. - When sorting your medicine cabinet, capture the tiny expiration dates on each bottle in one session. ■ Permissions - Camera: used only for OCR of expiration date text on packaging. - Notifications: used only to deliver reminders before items expire. - Camera frames and OCR results are processed entirely on-device and never leave the device. ■ Ads Google AdMob banner and interstitial ads keep the App free.

Stop paying for food you throw away. refrigerDATE turns your iPhone into a food-expiration radar. Scan a grocery barcode and the app identifies the product by name, then flows straight into reading the printed expiration date — even scrunched packaging stamps like JUL1227. No date on the label? Say it out loud, type it, or log the purchase date instead. YOUR WHOLE FRIDGE AND PANTRY, AT A GLANCE Three little calendars sit at the top of your list — green for fresh, amber for expiring within 3 days, red for expired. Tap one to filter. Drag them into any order. It's a stoplight for your groceries. REMINDERS THAT ACTUALLY REMIND You're notified 3 days before an item expires, again the day before, and again the day of — at 9 AM, when you can still do something about it. Optional daily reminders keep nagging (politely) while an expired item stays in your list. A CALENDAR BUILT FOR FOOD Browse everything you own by day, week, or month with stoplight colors on every date. Add any item to your iOS Calendar with one tap — or flip a switch and every dated item syncs automatically. EVERY FRIDGE AND PANTRY YOU OWN Kitchen, pantry, garage, basement, deep freeze, camper — or invent your own locations. Rename them any time; the items inside come along. Filter with one tap and see what's expiring soon across all of them. ON YOUR WRIST, TOO The Apple Watch app keeps your list on your arm. Check what's expiring from the grocery aisle, add an item by voice, or fix a date from the couch — everything syncs back to your iPhone automatically. ON YOUR HOME SCREEN AND LOCK SCREEN The Expiring Soon widget shows what's about to expire without opening the app — in small, medium, and large sizes, plus Lock Screen widgets. Red means expired, amber means soon, green means fresh. IN YOUR LANGUAGE refrigerDATE speaks 11 languages — and product names from scanned barcodes appear in your language when the food database knows them. FREE TO START, ONE PURCHASE TO UNLOCK Track up to 3 items free. refrigerDATE Unlimited is a one-time purchase — no subscription, no account — that removes the limit and adds the widget. Scanning, reminders, calendars, locations, and the watch app are free either way. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your items live on your device (and your watch). No account, no tracking. Product names come from Open Food Facts, a free, open, community-maintained food database. Scan it, Snap it, Done!
