Simmer plans your week and manages your pantry automatically — no manual entry, ever. Cook a meal and it decrements your pantry for you. Check off your shopping list and it stocks back up. It tracks what's running low, what's about to expire, and reserves ingredients against meals you've already planned, so you never accidentally double-use something. Every meal shows real cost upfront, swap suggestions pull straight from what you already have, and it's completely free — no subscription needed.
Hey everyone 👋 I built Simmer because I was tired of meal-planning apps that still make you do all the annoying work yourself — manually logging what's in your fridge, guessing at grocery costs, rebuying things you already had.
Simmer automates the boring parts: it tracks your pantry for you (cook a meal, it decrements automatically; check off your shopping list, it restocks), shows real estimated cost before you shop, and reserves ingredients against meals you've already planned so nothing gets double-used. If a suggested meal doesn't work for you, swap it in one tap for something similar.
It's completely free — no subscription, no paywall. I'm a solo developer and this is genuinely my first launch, so I'd love any feedback, bug reports, or "this is missing" comments. Happy to answer anything about how it works under the hood too.
