How My Household works.
Written in the order you'll meet it: set the house up, get the cupboard in, then use it. Sections still being written say so.
Setting up
Signing up creates a house. Everything you keep — recipes, products, the week's plan — belongs to that house rather than to you personally, which is what lets you invite the people you live with into the same cupboard.
The first run walks you through a guided stocktake: one screen per kind of thing, laid out as tiles, and you tap what you've already got. It saves as you go, so leaving halfway keeps what you did.
The step-by-step walkthrough is still being written.
Your house and who's in it
Not written yet — naming the house, sending invitations, what each person can see and change.
Products and the cupboard
A product is a thing you own: this tin, this brand, this size, in this cupboard. An ingredient is what a recipe asks for. Keeping them apart is what lets the app say "you have two of those" instead of "you have tomatoes".
Not written yet — adding products, scanning barcodes, areas and bins, counts, and what happens when something runs out.
Recipes and the shelf
Not written yet — typing a recipe in, importing one from a link, the shelf versus the library, and linking ingredients to products.
Recipe packs
A pack is a whole cookbook that installs into your shelf, pictures and all. Every house is given Basic Recipes and Classic Cocktails when it's created. Others are bought once from the pack store inside the app and stay with the house.
Not written yet — browsing the store, what happens after you buy, and removing a pack.
Cooking and the planner
Not written yet — what can be cooked tonight, cook mode, timers, and planning a week.
Shopping and prices
Not written yet — building the list, scanning a shop in, receipts, and where prices come from.
Reports
Reports will tell you what they can work out and say "can't tell yet" about the rest. A wrong number about your own kitchen is worse than no number, so the app doesn't estimate to fill a gap.
Not written yet — what each report covers and what it needs before it can answer.
When something looks wrong
Not written yet — a change that didn't stick, a barcode that won't scan, a price that looks off, and how to get in touch.
