One short loop

From container to decision, without the spreadsheet.

LeftoverFirst focuses on prepared food. It keeps capture light, explains the queue, and records what happened so the next dinner decision starts with context.

01

Capture

Add a photo or manual label, then confirm the container and fridge or freezer location.

02

Choose

Set a check reminder and see an explainable use-first order based on your confirmed information.

03

Act

Mark the leftover eaten, frozen, shared, discarded, or archived, with undo for accidental changes.

04

Remember

Search a clear history, reuse templates, and export your records whenever you need them.

Designed for the moment

A different job on every Apple screen.

The experience adapts to each device instead of stretching one phone layout everywhere.

iPhone

Fast in the kitchen.

Capture, choose a reminder, and record a disposition while the container is still in your hand.

iPad

Spacious at planning time.

Review the queue beside record details, search history, and prepare a week of reusable choices with keyboard and pointer support.

Apple Watch

Glance. Decide. Done.

See the next item and queue one short action for durable acknowledgement by the phone.

Local-first, with explicit choices

Your kitchen history is yours.

Core records and photos stay on your device. An account is not required. Optional private iCloud sync and Apple purchases each have a separate, visible boundary.

  • Photos stay local Label reading uses Apple Vision on your device; image bytes, EXIF, and voice audio are not uploaded.
  • You review every suggestion On-device label suggestions remain editable and do not leave the device.
  • Suggestions cannot decide safety On-device text suggestions never set dates, priority, reminders, or dispositions.
  • Export and deletion remain available Ownership controls are never locked behind Pro.

Memory aid, not a safety verdict

Your rules stay visible.

Dates, queue order, and reminders are organizational aids only. LeftoverFirst does not determine edibility, expiration, or safety and does not replace manufacturer labels or storage and reheating instructions, official guidance, dietary or medical advice, or personal judgment. Follow labels and official guidance, and discard food when uncertain.

Explainable order

The queue shows the information behind its order instead of presenting an unexplained risk score.

Permission at value

Camera and notification access are requested only when you choose the related action.

Denial-safe

Manual capture and the core queue continue to work if a permission or network request is unavailable.

Accessible by design

Semantic status, VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, Reduce Motion, high contrast, and iPad keyboard paths are product requirements.

Focused by design

A clear queue, with careful boundaries.

LeftoverFirst supports memory, organization, and user-chosen actions. It keeps manual fallbacks, visible explanations, export, deletion, and conservative food guidance in the core experience.
