Help Inside Expiry

Open Settings > Help & privacy > Getting Started for practical steps. Expiry Intelligence explains suggestions and what is sent for cloud recipes. Rhythm can be turned on or off in Settings > Recipes & Rhythm.

You can also send feedback or an error report from Expiry's Settings screen. Error reports may include app version, iOS version, device model, and recent app error log entries if you choose to include them.

Subscriptions and Billing

Expiry Pro annual subscriptions and lifetime purchases are handled by Apple through the App Store. Existing monthly subscriptions are also managed by Apple. To manage or cancel a subscription, open your App Store account subscription settings. For refunds or billing problems, use Apple's App Store purchase support.

Deleting Your Data

In Expiry, open Settings > iCloud & Data > Delete All My Data to remove app data stored by Expiry on your device, including items, households, categories, locations, shopping list entries, settings, diagnostics, and pending reminders. This cannot be undone. App Store subscriptions and purchases are managed separately by Apple. If you use iCloud sync or household sharing, you can also manage Expiry data in Apple's iCloud settings.

Household Sharing and Pro Access

Free lets you share a household with one partner without granting them Pro. Invite links are access keys: anyone holding one may access shared data. Send links privately. Resetting a link removes guest access; copies already saved cannot be taken back. Member limits and app-level view-only controls are not a CloudKit access-control guarantee.

A Pro household can include one owner with Pro who created the household, and up to four invited guests. Invited guests receive Pro access while they remain part of the shared household and while the owner's Pro access is active. If an invitation does not appear, make sure both people are signed in to iCloud, have iCloud Drive available, and are online.

Syncing and Notifications

Expiry uses iCloud for syncing and household sharing. If data does not appear on another device, check iCloud sign-in, network connectivity, and whether Expiry is allowed to use iCloud. Expiry reminders are local notifications, so notification permission and device focus settings can affect whether alerts appear.

Recipes

Open Inventory > Recipes to make a recipe or read Saved Recipes. Before sending a request, review the selected ingredients. Generation needs an internet connection and device security verification. Saved recipes remain readable without sending another request. Expiry offers meal ideas, not allergy or medical-diet advice.

Free includes 3 successful recipe generations per day, resetting at 00:00 UTC. Failed or cancelled requests, results with no useful recipe, and opening saved recipes do not use this allowance.

Household Limit

Expiry supports up to 20 households. Restoring or syncing an older collection does not delete households above this limit; creating or joining another is blocked until you are below it.

Camera, Photos, OCR, and Barcode Lookup

Camera and photo access are used only when you choose to scan, photograph, or attach an item image. OCR results and barcode lookup results are best-effort; always check the product label if an expiry date or product name looks wrong.
