Fridge Folio now reminds you before food goes off. Turn on a reminder for any item and choose how many days ahead you want the heads-up — the notification is scheduled right on your device, with no account and nothing sent anywhere. You can also set a default lead time so new items start with a reminder that suits you. The new Insights tab shows what you actually used versus what slipped past its date. As you mark items done, Fridge Folio quietly keeps a private history and turns it into a clear picture: your overall "used in time" rate, a six-week trend chart, and a breakdown by fridge, freezer, and pantry — so you can see where waste is creeping in and cut it down. Backup and restore are built in. Save everything — your items, your history, and your reminder settings — to a single file you can keep in Files, AirDrop to another device, or hold onto as insurance. Restoring lets you either merge the backup with what's already there or replace it entirely. As always, Fridge Folio is fully offline. No ads, no tracking, no subscription. Storage times are best-quality and safety guidance, not a guarantee — always inspect your food, and when in doubt, throw it out.

What's New - Fridge Folio 1.2 (build 4) Fridge Folio 1.2 turns the app from a manual food list into a real "use it before it spoils" tool. New Offline Food Storage Guide. A bundled, searchable reference for 60+ foods - leftovers, meat, poultry, seafood, dairy and eggs, produce, and pantry staples. See how long each food keeps in the fridge, freezer, and pantry side by side, which location keeps it longest, and a plain-language handling note. Figures are conservative food-safety guidance from public U.S. government sources (FDA / FoodSafety.gov cold-storage charts and the USDA FoodKeeper). Works entirely offline. Smart use-by suggestions. Type a food and choose where you're storing it, and Fridge Folio matches it to the guide and suggests a conservative use-by date - one tap to apply. Switch the storage location and the suggestion updates. A handling tip for the matched food shows right in the form. Freshness tracking. Every open item now shows a live badge - Fresh, Use soon, Use today, or Past date - with exact days remaining or overdue. A new "Use before it spoils" panel on the Today tab lists the most urgent items first, so the right food gets eaten first. Storage location on every item. Each item records fridge, freezer, or pantry, shown across the dashboard, library, and item cards. Improved - Exports (plain text and CSV) now include storage location, freshness verdict, and days remaining for every item. - The Today tab's smart brief now calls out items past their use-by date and what to use next. - Refreshed Toolkit value summary. Unchanged Still fully offline. No account, no ads, no tracking, no permissions, no subscription - one-time purchase. > Storage times describe best quality and safety, not a guarantee of freshness. Always inspect food and, when in doubt, throw it out.
