Hey all, I'm trying to be a little more economical and reduce the amount of food I waste, and was wondering if there were any open-source apps that can track the best-before dates of the foods I buy so I can improve my meal-planning.

I saw that there's Best-Before on F-Droid, but the last release was in July 2022, and I was curious if there was something more actively maintained.

This popped up on my F-Droid homescreen:

Food Expirations (Remember all the expiration dates of your food stocks.)

Not sure why, but it's not appearing either in the app or on a desktop browser for me. The link you provided leads to a 404.

On mine it's only available from the Izzy repo, not the main fdroid one.

Edit: Here's the source code. Try with either Izzy or Obtainium to install.

Oh thanks! First time adding a new repo to Fdroid. It works now, thanks a million!
