Haram, pork, gelatin, E number

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Point the camera at the ingredients panel. Primo Halal names the exact ingredient that decided the result, and says so plainly when an ingredient is not in its database. Point your camera at the ingredients panel on a packaged product. Primo Halal reads what is printed, checks every entry against its ingredient and E number table, and tells you which ingredient decided the result. It reports what a printed ingredient list declares. It is not a halal certification and it does not issue religious rulings. WHAT YOU SEE AFTER A SCAN - One of four results: no prohibited ingredients found, doubtful because the source is unclear, contains a prohibited ingredient, or cannot determine - The deciding ingredient, named, whenever there is one - The full ingredient list, each entry marked permissible, animal derived, prohibited, doubtful source, or not in our database - Precautionary wording printed on the pack, such as may contain traces, kept separate from the result - A halal claim or a named certifier printed on the pack, shown beside the result and never used to decide it - Plain language, so you can check the reasoning yourself IT NEVER GUESSES Label scanners fail in two ways, and both are in their reviews. They pass a product whose pack lists pork gelatin, and they mark everything they do not recognise as doubtful, carbon dioxide included. Primo Halal does neither. An ingredient that is not in the table is reported as not in the database, and doubtful is reserved for a real ingredient whose source is genuinely unclear, with the reason stated. HOW IT WORKS - Scan the barcode, or photograph the ingredients panel when there is no barcode or no record for it - Every entry is matched against a curated table of ingredients and E numbers, gelatin, rennet, enzymes, emulsifiers, carmine, L cysteine and alcohol carriers among them - A fixed rule set produces the result, and the explanation is written from that result rather than in place of it - Where the printed label and the product record disagree, the pack in your hand wins, and both are shown WHO IT IS FOR - Shoppers comparing two products in the aisle - Parents checking candy, cookies, cereal and snacks - Anyone reading a label in a language they do not speak - Anyone who wants the reason rather than a color WHAT IT IS NOT Primo Halal is not a certification body. It does not speak for any certifying body, school of jurisprudence or scholar, and nothing it shows is a religious ruling. Recipes change, labels are reprinted, and a photograph can be misread, so read the pack yourself before you buy. Scan history stays on your device.
