Scan-first food tracking
The app will make it quick to log what you have stored, where it is, when it was opened or cooked, and when it should be used.
Relaunch in progress
Know what is in the fridge before it becomes a mystery.
LftOvrs started with a simple idea: make good food easier to store, find and actually use. We are rebuilding it as an app-led system for logging leftovers with QR labels, NFC tags, print-your-own stickers and smart bands that work with the containers people already own.
We are especially keen to hear from early testers, parents, meal preppers, food-waste projects, NFC and label suppliers, product partners and anyone who thinks the next version should exist.
What LftOvrs was built to do
The original LftOvrs idea sat between reusable food storage, meal prep and simple household food-waste reduction. The relaunch keeps that practical heart, but puts the app and labels first.
Labels without lock-in
Use LftOvrs labels, print your own QR labels, or link an NFC sticker to the pot, jar, tub or container you already use.
Smart bands and fridge ideas
We are exploring elastic and silicone bands with built-in NFC, plus a small fridge display that can show what needs using next.
Why bring it back?
Food waste is not just a big-system problem. It happens in normal kitchens on tired weekdays: half a meal in a pot, no label, no reminder, no clue whether it is still good. LftOvrs is being rebuilt for that exact moment.
Less guilt, less guessing, fewer forgotten leftovers. Just a cleaner way to store food and use what you already made.
- 1 Rebuild the app: fast food logging, eat-soon lists, fridge/freezer locations and reminders.
- 2 Make labels easy: buy LftOvrs labels or print your own QR codes at home.
- 3 Add smart accessories: NFC stickers, elastic bands and silicone bands for tubs, jars and open pots.
- 4 Explore the fridge display: a simple screen showing what is inside, when it was opened and what needs using.
The app already had a head start.
These are glimpses from the earlier LftOvRs app: a simple place to see your meals, track where they are stored, and get a nudge before good food is forgotten. The relaunch will bring that thinking into a cleaner, easier version.
From the original app
See meals. Set reminders. Waste less.
The next version will keep the useful parts at the centre: quick logging, clear locations, use-by dates, and a calm view of what needs using next.
