Welcome to Zerø. The app helps you use the food you have bought before it gets forgotten. As soon as you open it, you see your current inventory and can tell what is urgent, what expires soon, and what is still safe.

00:13.240 --> 00:19.640
Every visit to Zerø therefore begins with a clear priority instead of a long, unsorted list.

00:20.290 --> 00:41.570
At the top, Zerø summarizes all entries in four groups: urgent, expired, expiring soon, and still safe. Below that, each item shows its product image, expiry date, remaining time, and storage location. Recognized products can also display calories per one hundred grams or milliliters. The colors guide you through the list.

00:41.820 --> 00:48.860
Red needs attention, amber marks food that expires soon, and green identifies safe supplies.

00:49.510 --> 01:04.750
Tap the green plus to create a new entry. Zerø guides you through every important detail without overloading the interface. You can take a product picture, scan the barcode with the camera, recognize the best-before date, and then choose a storage location and reminder.

01:05.000 --> 01:10.400
Before saving, a preview already shows how the item will appear in your inventory.

01:11.050 --> 01:24.090
The product image is optional, but it is especially useful in everyday life. You can take a new photo or choose an existing image from the gallery. Zerø stores it together with the food item and displays it on the product card.

01:24.340 --> 01:30.500
When several packages look similar, the picture helps you identify the right one without reading every name.

01:31.150 --> 01:45.310
Open the barcode scanner and align the code inside the marked area. If necessary, switch on the camera light from the same screen. Once the code is recognized, Zerø looks up available product information and inserts the name automatically.

01:45.560 --> 01:56.720
The Info view can show details such as brand, quantity, ingredients, categories, labels, Nutri-Score, and nutrition values. The recognized name always remains editable.

01:57.370 --> 02:14.970
Not every barcode is immediately readable, and not every product exists in a data source. The workflow still remains open. You can repeat the scan or enter the product name yourself. Zerø makes automatic recognition a convenience rather than a requirement.

02:15.220 --> 02:22.460
The important part is that you can complete the entry reliably, even when the package is damaged or the product is still unknown.

02:23.110 --> 02:39.590
Next, capture the best-before date. Hold the printed date inside the camera frame while Zerø analyzes the image live. The recognition handles complete dates, month and year, and common printed stamp formats. A detected date is transferred directly into the entry.

02:39.840 --> 02:46.080
This avoids slow calendar navigation while keeping the result available for review before you save.

02:46.730 --> 03:04.210
After automatic recognition, compare the result briefly with the package. If the print was unclear, correct the date directly. Zerø provides a quick selection for year, month, week, and the exact day. This combination saves repeated calendar steps while leaving you in full control.

03:04.460 --> 03:10.740
The saved date later determines remaining time, color status, and the moment when the reminder appears.

03:11.390 --> 03:30.070
Now choose the storage location: fridge, pantry, or freezer. This lets you filter the inventory later. You can also enable a reminder. Zerø sends the notification locally on your device, even when the app is not open. You no longer need to remember every date or check every package regularly.

03:30.320 --> 03:34.520
The selected reminder lead time is stored directly with the food item.

03:35.170 --> 03:53.250
Before saving, the preview shows the product name, expiry date, and current status again. When the photo, name, location, date, and reminder are correct, finish with Save. The food item immediately appears on the home screen and is assigned to the matching priority group.

03:53.500 --> 04:00.020
A package becomes a clear, visible inventory entry that receives attention at the right time.

04:00.670 --> 04:19.750
Zerø stays organized as your inventory grows. Remaining time appears directly on each product card, and items that expire soon are highlighted in amber. Use the location filter to switch between all products, fridge, pantry, and freezer. You can instantly find everything in the fridge that should be used soon.

04:20.000 --> 04:25.120
The overview tells you not only what you have, but what should come next.

04:25.770 --> 04:44.010
A saved food item remains flexible. Open Edit to change the name, expiry date, or storage location individually, and save the result immediately. You do not need to scan the barcode again. This is useful when you freeze a product, move it somewhere else, or read the printed date more accurately later.

04:44.260 --> 04:49.220
Zerø then recalculates its group and remaining time automatically.

04:49.870 --> 05:05.150
For common changes, Zerø provides quick actions directly on the entry. Plus one day moves the expiry date without opening the full form. Consumed removes a finished product from the active inventory. Discarded records that an item could no longer be used.

05:05.400 --> 05:12.000
The overview stays clean, and completed entries disappear exactly where you make everyday food decisions.

05:12.650 --> 05:28.610
Zerø combines fast capture with a clear daily overview. Barcode and product data reduce typing. The camera helps with the expiry date. Storage locations, remaining time, and reminders create priority. Editing and quick actions keep the inventory current.

05:28.860 --> 05:36.620
The benefit is simple: you see earlier which food needs attention, use more of what you have already bought, and avoid unnecessary food waste.
