Features

What the app does

  • Photo recognition

    Snap a product and AI fills in the name, brand, category, expiry date and PAO. Add a whole receipt at once from a photo or PDF.

  • Expiry and PAO under control

    For opened products it tracks the period after opening. Alerts and the expiry calendar tell you what to use up first.

  • Shared shelves

    Invite your partner or family with a link sent to their email. Invitees use the shelf for free; sharing needs a Plus owner.

  • Stats and yearly recap

    What you spend by month and category, what you actually use up and what you throw away. Stats are free for everyone.

  • Routines, goals and challenges

    Care routines, goals, weekly challenges and badges motivate you to use up what you already have.

  • Offline, currencies and widget

    Works without signal and syncs on its own. Enter prices in any currency, and the home-screen widget shows what expires soon. In 16 languages.

How it works

How BetterShelf works

Three steps to an organized collection

  1. Step 01

    Snap the product

    One photo and AI does the rest: name, brand, expiry and PAO. Or snap a whole receipt and add everything at once.

    * Plus feature

  2. Step 02

    Place it on a shelf

    Group products by location, purpose or owner. Share a shelf with your family through an invitation.

  3. Step 03

    Track and save

    Timely alerts and overviews show you what to use up before it expires.
