Groceries and what's on hand
Scan your groceries, keep a list of what you have, see meals you could make now, and get a shopping list.
Open Plan → Groceries.
Scan your groceries
- Tap Scan my groceries (or Plan from my groceries on the Week tab).
- Tap Add photos — up to 6 photos of your fridge, pantry or shopping bags.
- Tap Read my groceries. It usually takes under a minute.
- Check the list — fix or untick anything that’s wrong.
- Tap Save to my list.
Nothing is saved until you tap Save. The new foods are added to your list; tick Replace my current list to start fresh instead. Your photos are read and thrown away — they’re never stored.
On hand
On hand is your saved list of what you have, grouped by type. You can rename or remove any food, Add a food by hand, or Clear all.
A food named in your craving plan is marked as a trigger — on the scan review, on this list and on the grocery list — so nothing sneaks back into the house unnoticed.
Your list helps the read. When you log a plain food that is the generic form of a branded product on your list — “bread” when the list has Ezekiel 4:9 sprouted bread, “oats” when it has steel cut oats — the meal is read as that product, using its label. The food keeps the name you gave it on the plate; under How it was read on the meal page, From your grocery list says which product was used. Only an exact match counts: “milk” is never read as the soy milk on your list, a restaurant plate ignores the list, and a list you have not touched for two months is not used. If you don’t keep a list, nothing changes.
Meals you could make
Tap What can I make? to see 5–8 meals built from what you have and the meals you usually eat. Each one shows what you already have and what’s missing.
- Log it — you made it; log it.
- Add to plan — pick a day and slot. If it’s taken you’ll be asked to Replace it.
- Build my week from my groceries — a whole meal plan that uses what you have.
Grocery list
Groceries for the week lists everything in your meal plan, split into To buy and You have (what’s on hand). Tick things off as you shop.
Maya can read your On hand list too, so you can ask her “what can I cook tonight?”.
