What is Fryse?
Fryse is a kitchen inventory and food waste app for Android. It keeps a shared list of the food a household has, shows what will expire first, and suggests recipes built from those foods so they get eaten instead of thrown away.

How it works
From shopping bag to dinner in three steps
-
Add food in seconds
Take a photo of your receipt or of the food itself, or paste a list. Fryse reads it and adds every item to your kitchen.
-
Fryse files it and dates it
Each item goes in the fridge, freezer or pantry with a sensible use-by estimate. Change anything that's wrong with a tap.
-
Use soon, then cook
The Use soon card shows what expires first. Tap Cook with these and Fryse writes a recipe around it.
Features
Everything a food waste app should do
Each feature answers one question: what do we have, what goes off next, and what can we make with it?
Photo of the food
No receipt? Point the camera at the shopping on the counter, or the inside of the fridge, and Fryse recognises what's there.
Expiry tracking
Everything shows how long it has left: "Fridge · 1d left". Food that's about to go rises to the Use soon card on Home.
Recipes from what's expiring
Recipes start from the food you already have, most urgent first. Each one shows how many ingredients you have and adds the rest to your list.
Leftovers
Log what you cooked and Fryse tells you when to eat it by: "Made yesterday · eat by Saturday". No more mystery tubs.
A shopping list that sorts itself
When you use the last of something, Fryse offers to add it. The list sorts itself, so the shop takes less time.
One kitchen for the household
Invite everyone with a link or a short code. You all see the same food, leftovers, recipes and shopping list.
Where should this go?
Not sure if something keeps better in the fridge or freezer? Fryse suggests where to store each food and how long it lasts there.
Calm until it matters
Fryse stays quiet and neutral. The only orange you'll see is food that needs eating, and the button that helps you eat it.
