Not Bad Yet

Track food. Waste less.

Three iPhones with the headline Eat it before it expires. The phones show the nutrition data of an item, a Kitchen list with colored freshness dots, and five lists of the user.

Stop throwing away food you forgot you had. Not Bad Yet tracks the food in your fridge, freezer, and pantry, and tells you what to eat first.

// How it works

Three steps to less waste

  1. 0x01

    Scan a barcode

    Point your camera at the barcode. The app finds the product and fills in the name, brand, and nutrition data.

  2. 0x02

    Set a date

    Enter the expiration date. You can also keep a separate best-by date.

  3. 0x03

    Get an alert

    The app alerts you before the food expires, at the time that you select.

// Freshness

Know what to eat first

A close view of four items on a list. Each item has a colored dot: red for expired, orange for expires tomorrow, yellow for 5 days, and green for 12 days.

A colored dot on each item shows the time that remains.

  • More than 7 days
  • 4 to 7 days
  • 0 to 3 days
  • Expired

// Features

Everything your kitchen needs

The filter menu over a Kitchen list, with options for expiration and storage type.

Filters

Find what needs attention.

Filter a list by Expiring Soon or Expiring Very Soon. You can also filter by storage type: Refrigerated, Shelf Stable, or Frozen.

The Edit Food Item screen with nutrition values per 100 g and the Nutri-Score, NOVA, and Eco-Score values.

Barcode scan

Scan a barcode. The rest fills in.

The app gets the product data from Open Food Facts: ingredients, allergens, nutrition per 100 g, Nutri-Score, NOVA group, and Eco-Score. The next scan of the same product needs no network.

The Settings screen with the first alert at 7 days, the final alert at 3 days, and the alert time at 09:00.

Alerts

Alerts on your schedule.

Each item gets two alerts: a first alert and a final alert. You select how many days before the expiration date they come, and the time of day.

The list screen with five lists: Kitchen, Garage Freezer, Pantry, Family Fridge, and Lake Cabin. Each list has its own symbol and color.

Lists

A list for every place. Share it with your household.

Keep separate lists for the kitchen, the garage freezer, or the lake cabin. Share a list with other iCloud users, and give each member read-write or read-only permission. Start a share on iPhone or iPad. A Mac can accept an invitation.

// And more

Small things that help

iCloud sync

Your lists sync across your devices. The app continues to work when you are offline.

The app can delete an item a set number of days after it expires. This setting is off by default.

Backup

Export all your lists and items to one file. Import the file again at any time.

Private by design

No accounts, no ads, no subscriptions, and no third-party analytics.
