The complete application is a system that can be accessed from nearly everywhere and offers you the possibility to find out what you really need next from the supermarket.

Recent releases


Release Notes: This version fixes several bugs, increases the speed of requesting EAN/UPC/GTIN information from OpenEANDB, and introduces an Android app, "KaufKaufME", which can be used to handle the current shopping list and to synchronize between several persons who use the same shopping data.


Release Notes: This version fixes bugs in searching of words consisting of two letters and in counting of products when adding/removing via the search function.


Release Notes: This is a bugfix release. It solves problems regarding product display when mode "Top 10+alphabetical" is used, regarding the display of the on-screen keyboard, and other smaller glitches.


Release Notes: This version introduces a hotlist: products that are marked to be part of this hotlist are shown using a fast access button when products are removed from stock. This feature is very useful for products that typically lose their barcode/packing very quickly (like potatoes or eggs).


Release Notes: This version contains some enhancements to the user interface for easier data management. The "Add Products" mode is deactivated after a period of inactivity to avoid unwanted modifications in the stock of products.

Re: Project is free for users, no source code
So may be I missed something. The license of the software is "Freeware". And from Wikipedia ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... ) freeware is "...computer software that is available for use at no cost or for an optional fee.[1] Freeware is often made available in a binary-only, proprietary form, thus making it distinct from free software."
So what is the problem?

We're conflating different senses of the word "free". This web service is free as in beer (3. (3) complimentary, costless, free, gratis, gratuitous -- (costing nothing; "complimentary tickets"; "free admission")) but it's source code is not free .1. (6) free, liberate, release, unloose, unloosen, loose -- (grant freedom to; free from confinement)

Project is free for users, no source code
Sure, it's free if you know German and want to use their website. There's no source code and it's definitely non-free.
