Passports. Driver's licences. Credit cards. Insurance. Subscriptions. Work certifications. Everything important seems to expire at the worst possible moment — usually the week before a trip. Hexpiry keeps track of it all in one place and reminds you in time to do something about it. ADD IN SECONDS • Scan a document with your camera and Hexpiry fills in the details for you — type, expiry date, country, and reference number. • Or add anything by hand in a few taps. NEVER GET CAUGHT OUT • Smart reminders before each item expires — set how far ahead you want the heads-up. • Passports flag earlier, because many countries require months of validity to let you in. • Repeat reminders so an important renewal doesn't slip. • A clear colour-coded dashboard: red for expired, orange for expiring soon, green for plenty of time. • See your expired count at a glance on the app icon. KEEP THE WHOLE FAMILY ORGANISED • Add the people in your household and tag each item to whoever it belongs to. • One tidy list for everyone's documents. RENEW WITHOUT THE MESS • Mark an item as renewed and Hexpiry updates the date — or keeps the old one in your archive for your records. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Your items live only in your own private iCloud and on your devices. • Hexpiry has no server and never sees your data. There's no account to create, no tracking, and no ads. • Optional Face ID / Touch ID lock. • Hexpiry tracks expiry, not secrets — it only needs a label and a date, never full card numbers. ALSO INCLUDED • Home Screen widget so your next expiry is always in view. • Works across your iPhone and iPad, in sync. FREE & PRO Hexpiry is free to track up to 10 items. Unlock unlimited items with Hexpiry Pro — a single one-time purchase, no subscription. Pro is shared with your family through Family Sharing. Stay ahead of every expiry date. Download Hexpiry.
