I use it all the time when shopping and I’ve been surprised at what I thought was relatively healthy, turned out to be substantially worse than I thought, the app is great it gives you a score out of /100 for almost every product tells you all the ingredients and offers links to the studies attributed with the risks involved with certain additives in food and drink, also offers you alternatives at the bottom of the page for each product you scan. I would 100% recommend to anyone who gives even the slightest care about their health.

I don’t usually write reviews but came across this app via an advert and was immediately intrigued by its potential of scanning the foods in my cupboard to find out the truth behind the ingredients and ultra processed nature of these foods. Especially as we have dietary requirements in our household.Unfortunately, the advertising hype was letdown by the fact that as part of the setup process of the app you cannot actually scan anything without first setting up a subscription with a 3 day “free” period.Now, I appreciate that apps like this require a massive database, holding all the information of these foods. However it is a huge disappointment when you are met with an immediate paywall without actually experiencing at least a limited number of scans before hitting this paywall.There is no need to slap a “subscribe now” banner before the user has even had chance to experience the app.

Overall I’ve been really impressed with this app! The food database is huge and almost all products I scan are in there already. If not, it takes only a few seconds to scan the ingredients and get the product overview.The app is super easy to use and has a sleek design. It’s been a real eye-opener for me, especially realizing that some “healthy” foods I’ve been buying are actually heavily processed and that I should be looking for alternatives.Would definitely recommend to anyone wanted to focus on their health and making a real change.

Made the decision to use this, was hoping to maybe catch a handful of products that are unhealthy. I’ve always thought I’ve been smart at knowing what foods to avoid, how wrong I was. The majority of food in supermarkets is damaging to your health. I encourage everyone to use this app, scan the food you’re buying and you will see for yourself how unregulated the food industry is when it comes to healthy and clean food. This app is a hero and has made me realise that I need to make some drastic changes in what I consume. Thank you Ivy. Keep up the good work.
