Frequently asked questions - App Discontinuation

FAQ App Discontinuation

As part of our ongoing efforts to focus on the products, services and touchpoints that provide the greatest value to our customers, we have made the strategic decision to discontinue the ZWILLING app by December 31, 2026.

Over time, we have seen that the app does not add enough value for most customers in their everyday use. While it offers features such as storage tracking, saved data, and connected services, it is only used by a small number of our Fresh & Save customer base. We are therefore focusing our efforts on improving our products and on selected touchpoints where we can better support you in your everyday use.

Customers can continue using the app until December 31, 2026. From January 2027, the app will no longer be available, and app-based features and services will be deactivated.
