Expiry Reminders

Never let food go bad again. Get smart notifications days before items expire, with recipe suggestions that use them up in time.

ShelfCents sends smart push notifications before food expires, with configurable quiet hours, timezone support, and per-category toggles. Reminders include recipe suggestions that use the expiring items, helping you use food at its best and avoid safety risks from expired products.

How reminders work

Smart timing

Reminders are sent based on the specific item and its typical shelf life, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Priority alerts

Items expiring today or tomorrow get highlighted first. Always know what needs to be used immediately.

Push notifications

Get notified on your phone, even when you're not in the app. Never miss a reminder.

Customizable schedules

Choose how far in advance you want reminders: 1 day, 3 days, or a week before expiry.
