iPhone
Reads the ingredient list when it can. Estimates when it can't — and always tells you which. Five free scans every week, no account needed.
Photograph the food. Get a clear answer about gluten.
Built for people living with celiac disease or gluten intolerance — and for anyone cooking, shopping or travelling with someone who is.
Point your camera at a package, a menu, or the plate in front of you. If the ingredient list is legible, GlutenLens reads it and names the ingredient that decided the verdict. If there is no list — a bakery item, a restaurant dish, a package in a language you don't read — it estimates from what the food is, and tells you plainly that it estimated.
No barcode needed. No database lookup. That matters when you are travelling, eating out, or holding a package no scanner app has ever seen.
THREE ANSWERS, NEVER MORE
• Contains — a gluten source was identified
• Caution — possible gluten, or a cross-contact risk
• No gluten source found — nothing gluten-bearing was identified
Every verdict comes with a confidence value and the reason behind it. Cross-contact warnings printed on the label are read and reported, never quietly dropped.
BUILT TO DOUBT ITSELF
Every photo is assessed twice, by two independent models. Both have to agree before the app says a food looks clear. When they disagree, the more cautious answer wins. Ingredients are only shown when both readings saw them — which is how invented ingredients get filtered out before they reach you.
WHAT IT IS NOT
This is an assessment, not a laboratory test. It cannot see gluten that is undeclared or invisible. When a decision matters to your health, read the label and ask the kitchen.
NO ACCOUNT
No sign-up, no email address, no profile. Photos are analysed and never stored.
FREE SCANS EVERY WEEK
Five scans a week are free and refill on their own. An optional subscription removes the limit and funds the app — which is why there are no ads and no money from food brands.
