Lactose Safe
Scan Labels, Travel Dairy-Free
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Scan food labels for hidden lactose in 14 languages. Translated phrases help you avoid lactose while traveling. No cloud, no login. Free to try.
Lactose Safe is an ingredient scanner and travel phrasebook for lactose-intolerant people who want to avoid lactose.
THE PROBLEM WITH LABELS
Dairy hides under dozens of names — whey, casein, milk solids, cream powder — in small print, buried inside long ingredient lists. If you're grocery shopping and trying to figure out whether that pasta sauce or granola bar is going to ruin your evening, reading every label by hand is slow and easy to get wrong.
SCAN IT IN SECONDS
Point your camera at any food or drink label and the app instantly reads the ingredient list — no internet connection needed, no account required, nothing leaves your phone. It flags dairy-derived ingredients, including the ones hiding under technical names most people have never memorized.
Works in 14 languages, so it's just as useful at a German supermarket or a Japanese convenience store as it is at home. Built for grocery shopping, checking packaged snacks, and browsing unfamiliar products wherever you are.
TRANSLATED TRAVEL PHRASES
Menus list dish names, not ingredients. When you're traveling, what you need is a way to ask. The phrasebook gives you 60 translated phrases in 18 languages for avoiding lactose: "Is there milk in this dish?", "No cheese, please", "I'm lactose intolerant." Display the phrase to your server/barista, and avoid lactose in spite of the language barrier. Fully offline.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN

WHO THIS IS FOR
Lactose-intolerant people who want to eat the foods they love — finding the right products at the grocery store and navigating food abroad without the guesswork. This app is not designed to manage a milk allergy. Milk allergy is a distinct medical condition that requires professional evaluation and an emergency plan this app cannot provide.
