Expiration Date Manager 4+

I wanted the app mostly, to keep track of the food expiration dates (by hopefully scanning the product). Especially since pandemic, food quality, etc., has all changed seemingly without much oversight. It’s outrageously expensive especially if poor, or for those of us, (elderly also) & on a fixed income far below the poverty level -so we have to improvise, by buying cheaper or unknown brands, food baskets, etc.
Spoiler alert: It never read one expiration date- (perhaps I misunderstood & it doesn’t scan expiration dates?)
I gave it an extra star because it has some good uses, just none I personally need. Thank you.

I’ve tried everything, but the notifications just don’t work at all. I’ve never received any.

Aside from that, I’d prefer an option to view the items as a list, individually from top to bottom. The way it is takes away too much space from the name of the item.

The images should be optional too. Even if I don’t upload any, the default grey image takes up too much space and is distracting.

It’s better than some other apps, but without notifications, it’s kind of pointless.
