Stock App With Every Feature Free
As of today, 1/24/2026, this app has every feature I was looking for in a food tracking app. It allows you to track nutrition info, quantities per package in every type of measurement, expiration dates and store dates. You can scan item’s barcodes and have many storage locations. There is no paywall and no limits, they just have an option to tip them (which you should do, because every other app has fewer features + paywalls). Really pleased with the UI of this app as well, it’s very modern and easy to use. I don’t leave reviews typically but I was losing hope in finding an app with all the features I wanted for free, and then I found this one!

Weak at finding and retrieving
Some things about the app are quite good, but day to day use in finding stored items is not intuitive. It allows you to log items into it pretty easily and then add items to specific locations, ie kitchen freezer, basement freezer, etc. But retrieving them later isn’t obvious or simple. For example, if you want to find the 3 pound package of ground beef you bought 3 months ago, you actually have to remember the location you placed an item (ie basement freezer) and then search within that location in order for the app to tell you the specific place where the package can be found (ie shelf three). This is an important limitation. You can store items by location, but it doesn’t not have a basic “find item” or “view location” on the home page to make this an easy process.
