If you or anyone you know has food or skin allergies, look no further, this is THE app to have! It is the best one out there to help identify allergens in products, or really anything you want to avoid or even include! It is quick, efficient, and easy to use! It works even when you don’t have internet access, which can be super helpful in some stores. I never get reception in Walmart. I even use it for my dog food to make sure the flavor I’m buying doesn’t have chicken. The monthly subscription is extremely affordable and helps give me peace of mind in identifying allergens in products!Thank you Allergen Hound for making shopping easier!
Love it!

Labels on packages can be a bit challenging to read. I never wore glasses before. I still forget to carry them with me. The Allergen Hound finds allergens when I have a hard time reading the label. Great App and very easy to use. Bravo!

This app has helped me locate allergens while trying to alleviate artificial sugars from my diet. I have several health problems that worsen when I consume sugar, so I’m very thankful for a user-friendly app to use!
