Why lists die

Every grocery app asks the same thing: retype the week.

The meals, the ingredients, the amounts. Somebody in the house does it for a while, and then stops. The app isn’t abandoned because it was bad — it’s abandoned because it asked for the same work every week and gave nothing back when the work stopped.

Larder starts from the other end. Milk is weekly. Flour thinks it’s monthly and is usually right. You name what the house keeps and roughly how often it runs out — once — and the list assembles itself from those rhythms, in the order you walk the store. Tick things off as you buy them; the rhythm updates itself.

No quantities anywhere. “Have or don’t” turned out to be all a household actually needs.

What it looks like
Larder's Provisions screen: everything the household keeps, grouped by where it's kept, each with its own restock rhythm
Everything the house keeps, each with its own rhythm. Set once.
Larder's shopping list: this week's items grouped into store sections
The list, in the order you walk the store. Tick as you buy; the cadence updates.
Larder's week plan: meals assigned across the days of the week
Meals when you want them — optional. A useful list exists with zero meals entered.
Both of your phones

Shared by default.

No primary user, no invited member, no second-class seat. Whoever’s near the shops adds what’s missing; whoever’s home notices the coffee is low. One household, one list, both phones.

Larder installs from the browser — “Add to Home Screen” in Safari on iPhone, install in Chrome on Android. There is no app store version, on purpose.

What it is, and what it isn’t
It is
Free, with no ads and no third-party trackers. Your household’s data is never sold and never mined. Hosted in Australia, under Australian jurisdiction. Sign in with a passkey or a code emailed to you — no password to lose.
It isn’t
Open source, and it isn’t end-to-end encrypted. If self-hosting is a hard requirement, Grocy and KitchenOwl are good.
Larder is the free app in Hovenly

Built by one family in Tasmania.

Hovenly is a small suite for the two people who run a household together — the shopping and the meals, the papers you keep and prove, the shared calendar. Privately held, not for sale at any price. Larder is free, and always will be.
