Point the camera at a receipt or straight into an open fridge and it stocks a digital shelf. Then it opens on a dish — not a menu — ranked against what is actually in your kitchen, with two ways forward: cook it, or see another.\n\nTHE SHELF\nScan a receipt or your fridge, or type things in by hand. The scanner deliberately ignores non-food, so cleaning supplies, toiletries, pet food, coupons and receipt totals never reach your shelf. Everything that lands there is illustrated by hand.\n\nTHE CHEF'S PICK\nThe home screen does not hand you a search box. It hands you one dinner, chosen for the ingredients you already own and the time of day. Cook it, or ask for another.\n\nTHE CHEF'S BOOK — FREE FOREVER\nFifty recipes ship inside the app and are ranked against your shelf on the device itself. No account, no network, no subscription. They keep working on a plane.\n\nAI RECIPES\nAsk the chef to write something out of your shelf and it does: a new dish, its steps, and a drawing to go with it. Your first three shelves are on the house, with nothing counted; after that the Season Pass keeps the kitchen open.\n\nNO ACCOUNT, EVER\nPantryPal asks for a name to put on your shelf and nothing else. No email address, no password, no sign-in. Several people can share one phone and keep separate kitchens.\n\nYOUR KITCHEN STAYS YOURS\nChefs, shelves and kept recipes never leave the phone. Scan photos and ingredient names go to the service that writes the recipes; nothing else does. Nothing is used for tracking, and there are no ads.\n\n———\n\nSEASON PASS\n\nEverything above is free. The Season Pass is for the AI:\n\n• Stock as many shelves as you like — the first three are on the house\n• Scan as often as you shop\n• A new dish the moment your shelf fills\n\nOne season — $29.99 per year, and the first 7 days are free\nOne month — $4.99 per month\n\nPayment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your Apple ID is charged for renewal within 24 hours of the end of that period. Manage or cancel it in Settings › your name › Subscriptions after purchase. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when a subscription is purchased.\n\nTerms of Use (EULA): https://pantrypal-proxy.vercel.app/terms\nPrivacy Policy: https://pantrypal-proxy.vercel.app/privacy\n\n———\n\nABOUT THE RECIPES\nSome are written by us; some are generated by AI from the ingredients you picked, and those are estimates — including the calorie and protein numbers. Cook meat, poultry, seafood and eggs to safe temperatures, and double-check anything involving allergies or dietary restrictions. PantryPal is not medical or nutrition advice.\n\nRequires iOS 17 or later. iPhone only.","facts":{"developer_id":6805594030,"developer_url":null,"first_released":"2026-09-02T07:00:00Z","support_url":"https://www.tigoponcedeleon.com/","privacy_url":"https://pantrypal-proxy.vercel.app/privacy","website_url":null,"app_version":"1.3.0","release_notes":"Quality improvements.","rating_current_version":5,"rating_count_current_version":7,"star_counts":[0,0,0,0,7],"genres":["Food & Drink"],"languages":["EN"],"content_advisories":null,"device_families":["iphone"],"made_for_iphone_duo":false,"chart":null},"freshness":{"apple_read_at":"2026-11-11T07:31:12.891Z","catalog_read_at":"2026-11-05T08:11:13.362Z","reviews_checked_at":null,"summary_written_at":"2026-11-05T07:24:12.771Z","placed_at":"2026-11-05T07:40:12.712Z","scored_at":"2026-11-14T07:56:12.993Z"},"editorial":{"one_liner":"Turns receipt or fridge scans into a digital shelf, then suggests dishes you can cook from the ingredients you already.","what_is":"PantryPal is a Food & Drink app for iPhone that builds a digital shelf of ingredients from a receipt scan, a fridge photo, or typed entries.
