FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is PantryOK?
PantryOK is a pantry, grocery list, recipe, and meal planning app built for people with ADHD, executive-function challenges, and busy households. It replaces the mental load of remembering what food you have, what you need to buy, and what to cook.
How is PantryOK different from other grocery apps?
Most grocery apps start from a blank list. PantryOK starts from your pantry. You mark food as have, low, needed, or eat first, and your shopping list builds itself from what changed at home. Recipes, grocery logging, nutrient tracking, creator channels, body doubling, and family sharing stay in the same food loop.
Does it work for families?
Yes. The family plan lets up to 5 people share one pantry, buy list, recipes, preferences, and shopping flow. Changes sync in real time, so everyone sees the same kitchen state.
Is there a free version?
Yes. Free basics let you track pantry items, manage your buy list, save recipes, and browse the PantryOK catalog. Premium adds recipe imports from multiple sources, step-by-step recipe instructions, a grocery log, nutrient tracking, creator channels, shopping by aisle, family sharing, and cloud backup.
What platforms is PantryOK available on?
PantryOK is available on iOS (iPhone and iPad) and Android. Both apps sync through the same account, so your pantry stays up to date on every device.
Does it sync across devices?
Yes. Sign in with the same email on any device to keep your pantry, recipes, buy list, and household data in sync. Changes update in real time for all household members.
Can I import recipes from social media?
Yes. You can save recipes from Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, websites, pasted text, photos, and scans. PantryOK extracts the ingredients and steps so everything lives in one place.
