iPhone

New: touch and hold the Glik icon to scan or search straight away. Glycaemic index and load for your portion. No account, no ads, works offline. Glik shows the glycaemic index and glycaemic load of a food for the portion you will actually eat, and how that may affect your blood sugar. For anyone on a low-glycaemic-index diet, including people with diabetes or insulin resistance. Glik is an educational tool. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition. It does not monitor any condition and does not replace advice from a doctor, diabetes specialist or dietitian. Talk to your doctor before changing your diet or medication. WHY LOAD, NOT JUST INDEX White toast bread has a high glycaemic index (70), but one slice (25 g) gives a low glycaemic load (9.5). The index alone can be misleading. Glik always shows both, and recalculates the load for the portion you choose. WHAT IT DOES - Side-by-side comparison of two products: index, load, carbs and fibre at a glance - Glycaemic index (GI) and glycaemic load (GL) for your chosen portion - Barcode scanner for packaged products; it also reads QR and DataMatrix codes on new packaging - Touch and hold the Glik icon to scan or search straight away. Glik's shortcuts also work from Spotlight, the Shortcuts app and the Action button - Custom portion size, in grams or ounces - Save a dish made of several ingredients as one reusable product with its own load - Adds up the glycaemic load of a whole meal - Better low-GI substitutes - Export and import your favourites and meal, in case you switch phones - Favourites and recently checked products - Nutritional values (kcal, protein, fat, salt) for built-in products and most packaged ones (Open Food Facts), plus Nutri-Score and processing level (NOVA) for packaged ones - In English and Polish WORKS OFFLINE The built-in database works without an internet connection. You can also download several hundred popular packaged products in one tap (usually in a few seconds), so scanning keeps working with no signal. HONEST DATA For every value you can see whether it was measured in a study or estimated from composition. We never present an estimate as if it were a measurement. The estimation method is explained directly in the app. CLEAR FOR EVERYONE We show the level with colour, shape and word together, so it can be read even with colour-vision differences. VoiceOver, text scaling and dark mode are supported. PRICE AND PRIVACY Pay once, every feature works right away, no subscription and no extra charges. No accounts, no sign-in, no ads, no analytics, no tracking. Your favourites and meals stay on your phone. IMPORTANT Glik is an educational tool.

Glik 1.3: faster to the scanner and to search. - Touch and hold the Glik icon on the Home Screen to scan a barcode or search for a product straight away. - Glik's shortcuts for scanning and searching are now in Spotlight and the Shortcuts app. On an iPhone with the Action button, you can set it to start a scan. - The scanner also reads GS1 QR and DataMatrix codes that carry a product number. Ordinary barcodes work as before. - Full nutrition values (kcal, protein, fat, salt) for every built-in product. - In a wider window, the content stays in one readable column. - The icon is ready for the newer Home Screen styles. - Settings has a new “Rate Glik” row, if you would like to leave a review. - The offline database now downloads in seconds. Fixes: - Corrected and consistent numbers: verified GIs for several dozen foods (including dates, raisins, millet and buckwheat groats) and the carbohydrate values of a dozen or so built-in foods; a glycaemic load for cheeses, eggs, nuts and vegetables too; the meal, the dish and the comparison show the same values. - Reporting a missing product or incorrect data opens your mail app more reliably. - The privacy policy and the backup note now say plainly that, on iPhone, Glik's data can be part of your own iCloud backup. - Accessibility fixes, including clearer VoiceOver labels on the main screens.
