Scan your items, see how many days of food and water your household has, and get a reminder before anything expires. No account, no ads, no tracking.
Android now. iPhone later.
Features
Pantrio is built for long-term stock and preparedness: cans, dry goods, water and the things you want to have on hand. And for the everyday shopping list.
Scan the barcode and the app finds the name, brand and picture in Open Food Facts. You just pick the expiry date and the quantity.
Rows fill with colour as the expiry date gets closer. You get one daily reminder with what needs to be used now.
See how many days of food and water your stock covers for your household, and follow a checklist based on your country's official advice.
Mark a location as a freezer and the app counts days in the freezer instead of expiry. Nothing gets forgotten at the bottom of the chest.
Grouped by category like the best shopping apps. Set a minimum and a target on items and see what is running low.
Your own categories with colour and emoji. Browse by category or by where the item is kept: kitchen cupboard, pantry, basement.
Five cans with five dates show as five rows in date order. Count in pieces, grams, kg, litres, bags or packs.
Save a backup file including your own pictures and restore it on a new phone. Import your stock from another app via .xls or .csv.
Guide
From first launch to a stock you are on top of. This is how most people use the app.
The first time you open the app you pick the categories and locations you want to use. There are suggestions such as Canned food, Dry goods, Drinks and Kitchen cupboard, Pantry, Freezer. You can always add more later under More.
If you have a backup from another phone, restore it straight from the welcome screen.
Tap the scan button and point the camera at the barcode. The app finds the name, brand and picture, and you choose the expiry date with quick buttons and the quantity with + and −.
The Overview tab shows three numbers: expired, expiring soon and items in stock. Below are Use first with what needs using now, the Preparedness card, Low stock and shortcuts to your categories.
You decide what "soon" means: the thresholds for red, orange and yellow are set in days under More.
The Stock tab shows compact rows, so about 12 items fit on the screen. View them as All, by Categories or by Locations, and sort by expiry date, name or category.
Each row shows days until expiry and the quantity in stock. The closer to expiry, the more the row fills with colour. Tap a row to see the item.
A tap opens the item from the bottom: batches with expiry date, location and + and −, the buttons Add more, Edit, Put on shopping list, Remove from stock and Delete item, and the picture in full size at the bottom.
Removed something by mistake? There is Undo for ten seconds.
Items are grouped by category with a green bubble showing the quantity and a checkmark on the right. Checked items move down under "Show bought items", and you can undo for five seconds.
Give an item a minimum ("Always keep at least") and a target ("Fill up to") under Edit item. It then appears under Low in stock at the top of the list when it is running out, and one tap adds the missing quantity to the list.
Tell the app how many people are in your household and how many days you want to be able to manage. Pantrio counts food in calories and water in litres and shows "Food approx. 9 days" and "Water approx. 2 days" with bars against your target.
Calories and package size come from Open Food Facts when you scan, or are estimated from the name. You can always correct the numbers yourself.
Pick your country and you get the official recommended list: water, food, medicine, first aid, torch, batteries, radio, cash and more. Water and food are ticked automatically when your stock covers it. The rest you link to items in your stock or tick with "I have this".
Preparedness
Authorities across Europe recommend that households can manage on their own for at least three days during a power cut, flood or crisis. Some countries say a week. Pantrio shows whether your stock is there, and what is missing.
Checklists are available for:
Without the freezer: approx. 6 days of food · Missing approx. 30 litres of water
