Help with App Development (Sorry if this is in the wrong section!)

[celineyg]

Hi! I'm a high school student and part of a team entering a competition where you have to pitch an app idea. For our idea we were thinking of helping people keep track of the foods in their kitchen and sending notifications to them when their foods are soon to be expired. Obviously there would be a lot of data involved in this (how long each food lasts) and we would need to keep the information of many foods to make an effective app.

Our competition was more about the idea side of things than the actual development, and I know nothing about app development, so I was wondering If anyone could explain how this information of mine could be stored (Through cloud i think) and link me to somewhere the could highlight the costs involved.

Anything would be appreciated, and also just general feedback of any difficulties or problems that this app idea could face as well.

Thanks so much!

I'm not so sure this would need to be stored in a cloud server. It could all be in the app, it's just the app would be a large one.

To save space, could the app be set up so the user inputs the proper data?
