Know what you’ve got, and where it is
An app for keeping track of your household’s emergency supplies, where you keep them and when they go out of date.

How much water to store
What KITHELD records about each item
Take a photo, then enter how many you have and where you keep it. KITHELD adds it to the right part of the checklist and reminds you before it goes out of date.
A checklist sized to your household
The checklist has 28 needs in eleven groups, based on UK Government preparedness guidance. Enter how many adults, children and pets live with you and the amounts change to match. The example here is for two adults.
Emergency view lists the things you've marked to take first, grouped by where they're kept. It works offline and is always free.
- Turns on the phone's torch, or lights the screen if there isn't one.
- Opens from a widget or the lock screen.
- Free to use, even if you never buy the app.
