HalxStocked — Support
Last updated 10 November 2026
HalxStocked keeps a cupboard of tins and dried goods and tells you how many days of food your household has, scored in calories against a target you set. It is a one-off purchase, there is no account, and nothing is sent to us.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need an account?
No. The app opens straight onto your cupboard.
Does it cost anything?
It is a one-off purchase. There is no subscription and nothing to buy inside it.
Is there a free trial?
No — it is a one-off purchase. If you buy it and it is not for you, you can ask Apple for a refund through reportaproblem.apple.com.
Will it work without a signal?
Yes. Your cupboard works offline — the only thing that needs the internet is looking up a barcode, and you can always type the details in instead. If you share a cupboard with your household, that syncs through iCloud, so changes catch up once you are back online.
Can somebody else see the same cupboard?
Yes, through iCloud — invite them from Settings. They do not have to live with you: it works just as well for family in the same house as for someone keeping an eye on a parent's or a neighbour's cupboard from their own home.
Why does it say a tin is fine when the best-before has passed?
Because a best-before is not a use-by. The app adds a grace period per category and alerts on that instead, which is the whole point of it.
Something is wrong with a product's calories.
They come from Open Food Facts and are community-maintained. Correct them in the app, or improve them at openfoodfacts.org.
