Expiry Alert !

Features Expiry Alert !

Expiry Alert was created to remind you of your refrigerated food’s expiry date.
This app relies on a calendar and a camera only.
You will only need to take a picture of the item you’ve just bought (like a pack of milk), and then slide it next to the date given on your food.
You will then receive a notification three days before the sell by date to remind you of eating it.
A study by the FAO (UN Food and Agriculture Organisation) showed that food wastage represents as much as 7.3 billion tons per year.
This represents a third of the total production of food for human consumption.

At a global level, a quarter of the amount of food produced is thrown away and not eaten.

In developed countries, food wastage is estimated between 30 and 40% of food production.

These figures are extremely shocking, when you realise that at the same time, 13% of the world population suffers from undernourishment.
This wastage represents $830 billion.

Expiry Alert is a simple and convenient way to help you save money and fight off food wastage.
