ShelfLife
Scans grocery receipts, tracks expiry dates, and suggests recipes to use food before it turns.
ShelfLife scans a grocery receipt and dates every item automatically, then warns you before produce, dairy or bakery items expire and suggests recipes to use them up first. It works offline, needs no signup to try, and lets you export your data any time. Pro costs $6.99/month or $59.99/year, positioned against a cited USDA figure that the average US family of four throws out $1,500 of food a year — the page frames the yearly plan as costing under 6% of that waste.
What holds up
- +Works offline and needs no signup just to try the receipt scanner
- +Lets you export your data any time — no lock-in to the app's own format
- +Frames its own cost against a cited USDA figure: $1,500/year average household food waste
- +Suggests recipes specifically to use up items that are about to expire, not just a warning
Mind the limits
- −Pro is a subscription, $6.99/mo or $59.99/yr, after a short 3-day free trial
- −Depends on scanning a receipt — items bought without one won't get tracked automatically
