Two concrete scenarios for the 2026-12-31 window. Local-only helper for ordinary users — not a vendor console and not affiliated.
Home cook with many Fresh & Save boxes (role: kitchen ops): Must preserve fridge contents and expiry dates before the Dec 31 app deadline
Task: Must preserve fridge contents and expiry dates before the Dec 31 app deadline
Steps: Step 1 screenshot boxes in the app. Step 2 fill template rows (id/contents/put-in/expiry). Step 3 set a few calendar reminders. Step 4 export CSV/Markdown. Step 5 delete the app only after the copy check.
Result / outcome: Result: spreadsheet replaces app storage tracking before shutdown; shopping list copied.
Hardware still works — only app tracking stops. No official substitute exists; this template fills the need without a kitchen SaaS.
Role context: kitchen-inventory-user in zwilling-app-dec31-exit. Deadline 2026-12-31. Vehicle template-form. Keep the export attached to your personal note and re-verify official sources before cutover. This local tool does not call vendor APIs.
Shared household kitchen user (role: family ops): Need to keep a shopping list after in-app lists disappear in January 2027
Task: Need to keep a shopping list after in-app lists disappear in January 2027
Steps: Next: copy the list, then fill the template shopping column, then share the sheet with the household team, then retire the app.
Result / outcome: Outcome: list survives January 2027 without depending on ZWILLING push notifications; export done.
QR/NFC will not reopen the app after January 2027. Warranty/support stay on zwilling.com — migrate content, not product registration.
