Original release notes
Freshli 2.0 is a smaller, faster, far more reliable app. • Expiry alerts now actually arrive. Freshli used to schedule one notification per item, which quietly ran past iOS's limit — so if you tracked more than about ten things, you stopped being warned. You now get one clear daily reminder instead, no matter how full your kitchen is. • Works on iPhones running iOS 17 and later. Freshli previously required iOS 26. AI recipes still run on-device where the hardware supports it; everywhere else a built-in matcher does the same job offline. • Opens faster. The app no longer waits for every tab to load before showing you anything. • Notifications are asked for when they make sense — after you track your first item, not on the first screen. • Neighbor sharing is paused while we build enough local density for it to be useful. Your pantry, recipes and alerts are unaffected. • Fixed: edits made offline could be lost when syncing, recipes could overstate how many of your ingredients they used, and several crashes.
