The whole pack, in your pocket

Every record the SFBB pack asks for

If it's a page in the official diary, it's a screen in SaferFood Diary — kept in the same shape your Environmental Health Officer expects to see.

Daily diary

Opening & closing checks with one tap when all's well, problem notes — and a photo — when it isn't, signed every day.

Weekly extra checks

Probe calibration, deep cleans and pest checks, recorded with one tap from templates.

4-weekly review

All twelve questions, with the month's problems gathered up for you. Reminded when it's due.

Prove-it records

Probe a dish, type the temperature, done — with a photo of the reading if you like. Evidence your methods work.

Deliveries

Log goods in as they arrive — supplier, temperature, accept or reject, with a photo of anything wrong.

Fridge & freezer log

An optional daily temperature log for each appliance, with anything over the safe limit flagged for you.

Allergen matrix

Every dish against the 14 allergens, so you give customers the right answer — and export it as a clean grid.

Staff training

A training card per person, with day-one items inserted in one tap.

Suppliers & contacts

Who delivers what and when, plus your EHO and tradespeople — tap to call.

Cleaning schedule

What gets cleaned, how often, with what — and the six-step method to hand.

Safe methods

All 31 safe-method sheets summarised — plus your own — with your completion record kept up to date.

How it works

Open. Tick. Sign. Back to the kitchen.

Morning

A quiet nudge before service. Run your opening checks — one tap if everything's right, a quick note if it isn't.

Evening

Closing checks, then sign the day with your finger. The official wording, a real signature, about twenty seconds.

Inspection day

Export a tidy, dated PDF of any period — diary pages, reviews, training, the lot — and hand it over or email it.

Your records, yours

No accounts. No servers. No nonsense.

SaferFood Diary keeps your records on your iPhone and syncs them through your own iCloud to your other devices. We never see your data — there's nothing for us to see it with.

  • Works offline — busy kitchens don't wait for Wi-Fi
  • Syncs between your iPhone and iPad via your iCloud
  • No sign-up, no email address, nothing collected
  • Your records stay viewable & exportable, always
Fair and simple

Pay once. That's the whole pricing page.

Software for small food businesses shouldn't be another monthly direct debit.

The maths

Three years in, you'll have spent… £29.99.

Most digital food safety systems charge every month, for as long as you trade. SaferFood Diary is £29.99 once — no subscription, no account, no contract. Here's how that adds up.

Product Price Cost over 3 years Contract
SaferFood Diary £29.99 once £29.99 None
+ Multi-site add-on £14.99 once, unlimited sites £44.98 including the app None
Paper SFBB pack Free to print Hours of reprinting, filing and lost pages
SFBB+ £4.99/month per premises ~£180 Rolling monthly
SFBB Pro £24.95/month ~£898 Rolling monthly
Navitas Safety (Essential) From £129/month ~£4,600+ 12-month minimum

Competitor prices as published on each provider's website, July 2026 — check theirs for current pricing. Three-year totals assume list price throughout, for a single premises — where pricing is per premises, every extra site multiplies it. Other products may include things this app deliberately doesn't, like team dashboards or sensor hardware.

£29.99. Once. No subscription, ever. The cheapest competitor charges £4.99 a month — so SaferFood Diary pays for itself in about six months, then costs nothing.

Two sites or more? Add Multi-site for £14.99 once. The cheapest charges £4.99 per site, per month — that's £119.76 a year for two sites! SaferFood Diary, plus Multi-site, costs £44.98. Once. Forever.

Why we don't do subscriptions

Your diary is a legal record you may need to show an inspector years from now. We don't think you should lose access to it because you cancelled a subscription — or because a company you paid monthly changed its prices or switched off its servers. Your records live on your device and in your own iCloud, so if we disappeared tomorrow, your app and your records would keep working.

Common questions

The things people ask before buying

Can I use it on more than one device?

Yes. Sign in to iCloud with the same Apple ID on each device and your records sync through your own iCloud. For a business, the pattern that works is a dedicated business Apple ID — kitchen@yourbusiness.co.uk, say — signed in on each site's device, rather than staff members' personal Apple IDs. One £29.99 purchase (plus one £14.99 Multi-site purchase, if you need it) on that Apple ID covers every device.

The one limitation, plainly: devices signed in to different Apple IDs don't sync with each other.

I run more than one site — how does that work?

The Multi-site add-on unlocks unlimited locations for £14.99, once. Each location keeps its own diary, records, reminders and inspection PDFs, and you switch between them in the app. Staff, suppliers, contacts and your daily-check lists are shared across all locations, so you set them up once.

The add-on gates exactly one thing: adding a second location. Everything else — recording, viewing, exporting — is in the £29.99 app.

What happens if I don't buy after the trial?

You stop being able to add new records — that's all. Everything you recorded during the trial stays viewable and exportable, PDF export included, for as long as you keep the app. Your records are never held to ransom.

Is there an Android version?

Nearly. The Android app is finished and on its way to Google Play — we won't promise a date until it's live. If you'd like a one-line email when it lands, write to hello@saferfood.app.

Who it's for

Built for the businesses the big platforms price out.

Independent food businesses in England, Wales and Northern Ireland working from the SFBB pack: cafés, takeaways, mobile caterers, street-food traders, home bakers and small kitchens. Got a second site — or a fifth? The Multi-site add-on unlocks unlimited locations for £14.99, once, each keeping its own diary, records, reminders and inspection PDFs — while the platforms priced per premises charge you for every site, every month, for as long as you trade. If you need team accounts, dashboards or sensor hardware, a subscription platform may still suit you better — this app is deliberately simple, for everyone else.
