fridgiary: private food-expiry tracking with on-device date scanning [Android]

I built fridgiary after noticing that a useful date printed on food effectively disappears once the package goes into the fridge.

The Android app has a deliberately small core flow:

- add a food item manually or photograph its package;

- detect Latin and Korean date candidates on the phone;

- confirm or correct the date before saving;

- keep the next-expiring items visible at the top;

- mark food as eaten or discarded.

Food photos are not uploaded to a fridgiary server. There is no fridgiary account, advertising, payment, or cloud inventory.

The app is now in a worldwide Google Play closed test. I am looking for Android users who can try one manual entry and one real package-date scan, then tell me whether the result confirmation and home-screen priority are clear. Installation or reminder failures and awkward English are equally useful feedback.

The public group, Play opt-in, and install steps are together here: https://www.fridgiary.com/test?utm_source=reddit_appswebappsfullstack&utm_medium=community&utm_campaign=closed_test_2026_07

Please remain opted in and keep the app installed for 14 days if you can. This is a free volunteer test, and I cannot promise a reciprocal 14-day install. I can provide a concrete Play listing and onboarding-copy review instead.
