Pantry
Your at-home inventory. The Pantry page shows every ingredient needed by the recipes and QuickBites currently selected on the Menu, along with what you have on hand. Tap items off as you walk the kitchen. Set a reminder on anything you’d like to be nudged about later.
What you see on each row
- Checked box — you have it.
- Unchecked box — you don’t have it. It’s also showing up on Groceries ready to buy.
- Reminder pill (to the right of the name) shows one of three states:
- set — no reminder yet; tap to pick one
- 3d / 7d / 14d / 30d — a reminder is scheduled that many days out
- ✨ — the reminder has come due. Time to check on this one.
Setting a reminder
Tap the reminder pill to expand the picker:
Remind me in… 3 days · 1 week · 2 weeks · 1 month · no reminder
Pick a duration and the app schedules a reminder that many days out (calendar days — if you pick “1 week” on a Sunday, the sparkle shows up next Sunday, whenever you open the app that day). Picking “no reminder” clears any reminder you already set — useful for staples like olive oil or salt where you’ll notice when you run low.
Setting a reminder on an unchecked item also marks it as on hand, so one tap does both: “I bought it, remind me to check stock in 2 weeks.”
The pill you picked last time is pre-highlighted, so you can reconfirm with one tap.
Where items come from
Items appear in your Pantry because a recipe or QuickBite on your Menu needs them. Deselect the recipe and the item leaves the Pantry — but the app quietly remembers the state (including any reminder you set), so when you re-select the recipe later, things pick up where you left off.
Frequently asked
Why don’t I see my custom grocery items here? Custom items live only on the Groceries page. The Pantry tracks recipe-derived ingredients — the things you’re building meals around.
What happens when I buy something at the store? Checking it off on Groceries moves it straight into your pantry (shown checked here). The item stays visible on Groceries for about an hour in case you need to undo — then it slips off that list.
The reminder I picked isn’t quite right. Tap the reminder pill again and pick a different duration. The new one replaces the old. Pick no reminder to clear it entirely.
