Choose in Settings → Keeping Count → Planned Meals Leave the Pantry:
- On the Day (the starting choice) — two hours after a meal’s time, or at the end of the day for a meal type with no time, what it uses comes out by itself. A note on the meal plan, such as “Took 2 planned meals out of the pantry”, says what was taken; tap Review to put back anything you didn’t have, or swipe the food to the right and choose Not Made (Not Had for a pantry item). The ✕ closes the note.
- When I Confirm — nothing comes out until you say so. Mark meals Made It as you go, or answer one question on the meal plan about the ones you haven’t.
If you plan for more than one profile, the note lists only the meals of the profile you’re planning for, and its ✕ closes only those. Switch profiles to see the others’ meals.
This choice is the same on all your devices and for everyone in your household.
