When the power goes out or a warning comes over the phone, there's no time to go count cans. Days of Supply already has: food, water, fuel and medication, against what your family actually uses, and which one runs out first.
7 days of everything, free. No card to start. Your list stays yours — export it whenever you like.
Why I built Days of Supply, and why I use it myself.
Recently our family went five hours without power. Not long after, we were under a tornado warning, here in Utah. Both times I opened the app and knew exactly what we had and how long it would last.
Adding my shelves, I found food I thought was good had already expired. And at the case lot sale, I bought what we were missing instead of guessing.

Most preparedness advice counts calories and stops. But a year of wheat is worth very little if you run out of the fuel to cook it in a fortnight. This works out every resource separately, then reports the one that fails first.
Try it with a sample family of four. City water, natural gas, a portable generator with 40 gallons of gas, 40 gallons of stored water, about three months of food, and a wood stove. It starts on an earthquake on a hot St. George day.
A power outage and an earthquake are not the same problem. Tell the app once how your place runs, and it works out what keeps going in each one.
Stand in the aisle, open the app, and see what you already have and what you're missing. Search any item to see how many you have and when they expire, and the shopping list shows what's below the minimum you set, in the case sizes you actually buy.
Counting is the start. These turn the count into dinner, into a plan for the cabin, and into an honest look at what the animals cost you in water.
Pick breakfast, lunch, dinner or dessert, and it builds three recipes from your own pantry, starting with whatever is closest to its date. Switch on No power and every recipe works on a camp stove or with no cooking at all.
Animals are the only part of a food supply that keeps coming. They're also the thirstiest thing on the property. Add them and the app counts both: eggs and milk for as long as the feed lasts, and every gallon they drink.
A week of food at home tells you nothing about the cabin. Each place keeps its own shelves, its own setup and its own days of supply, and a bar at the top always shows which one you're working on.
Stored fuel goes off, and not at the same rate. Treated gasoline is good for about a year, mixed two-cycle for a couple of months, kerosene for years. Propane cylinders need requalifying twelve years from the stamp on the collar, after which a filling station can legally turn you away.
Medication is what actually runs out first in a long disruption, and it's the one thing you can't improvise. Enter what's on hand and how many doses a day, and you get days per person, with critical prescriptions warned earlier because a 90-day fill needs planning.
A rusted can you can see. An expired passport you can't. Pick the document from a list and add its expiration date, and the app warns you early enough to renew: a week ahead for a fishing license, three months for a passport.
Ammunition and tackle are counted alongside the part people forget: a way to keep the meat, which decides whether a deer is five days of food or fifty pounds of waste.
Grandparents use this. So every button says what it does, and nobody has to hunt for anything.
So point your phone at the label. It reads the product, the date, the calories and the category, and files it, including the pack dates and "best if used within three years" wording on a case of storage food.
Set the goal and the app works backwards to what's missing, in the units you'd buy it in.
The long-term staples counted the way they're normally taught: grains, legumes, milk, fat, sugar and salt, per person, with what's still short expressed in buckets and cases rather than pounds.
The FEMA baseline: a gallon of water per person per day and food that needs no cooking, checked against what a shelter-in-place order would actually demand of your house.
Every account starts with 7 days of everything and no card. After that, stay on the free plan or subscribe. Either way the inventory is yours, and you can export it to a spreadsheet whenever you want.
Every plan counts your whole family, however big it is. The limits below are only how many people can sign in and help keep it up to date, and on Extended that's everyone.

That's about $5 a month on the yearly plan.

Grandparents give it to their grown kids' families. Businesses, agents and groups give it to their clients, members or employees. The more families, the lower the price for each.
| Families | Household | Extended |
|---|---|---|
| 5 to 9, a family gift | $50 | $85 |
| 10 to 49 | $45 | $75 |
| 50 to 249 | $35 | $60 |
| 250 to 999 | $30 | $50 |
| 1,000 or more | Let's talk | |
Regular prices are $59.99 and $99.99 a year. Gifts for 2 to 4 families are at the regular price, and savings start at 5. Paid once, up front.
Grandparents give it to each of their kids' families for Christmas. Real estate agents give it to buyers at closing, and to past clients as a thank-you. It keeps you in their thoughts all year, every time they open the app.
No. Start with one room. The number updates as you go, and a partial count still tells you which resource is weakest, which is usually the useful part.
Six: a power outage, an earthquake, a winter storm, the water being shut off, being stuck at home with no stores, and having to leave. Each one assumes different things still work, using what you've told the app about your power, water, gas, generator and the weather.
It's built for people who don't want to fiddle. A setup guide walks you through each step, the buttons are big and say what they do, and the search box finds features as well as food. If you get stuck, tap Help, or tap Suggest and a person will write back.
Yes. Every item with a date shows whether it's good, due soon or past its date, and the list of what to use first is always on the Pantry tab. Many people find food they thought was fine the first day they scan their shelves.
No. Every account gets 7 days of everything without a card. If you want to keep the paid features after that, you pick a plan then.
From your own shelves. The app reads what's in your pantry, favours whatever is closest to its date, and suggests meals that use it. Anything past its date gets a clear reminder to check it first, and past-date dairy, meat and eggs are never used.
Eggs and milk add food for as long as the feed you've stored lasts, and meat animals count once. Their water is added to your household's daily use. The figures are typical starting points you can change to match your own animals; your vet or the USU Extension office can tell you what yours need.
No. Every plan plans for everyone in your household, whether that's two people or fourteen, pets included. The only difference is how many of you can sign in and help: one on Free, three on Household, and everyone in the family on Extended.
Because days of supply is arithmetic about one building. A week of food at home tells you nothing about the cabin, so each place keeps its own inventory and its own number, and you choose who in the family can see each one.
Your account is yours alone, and the only people who can see it are the ones you invite into your household. Sign-in is a link sent to your email, so there's no password for anyone to steal.
It's built for one. Add it to your home screen and it runs like an app, including offline in the storage room where the signal drops.
The next outage or warning won't wait for you to count. Most families are surprised, usually not by the food, but by the thing next to it that runs out in a day, or the cans that expired years ago.
7 days of everything, free. No card to start.
