Food & cosmetics label scanner

Scan an ingredient list. See what is in it.

Gluten and nitrites in cold cuts. Celery in stock cubes. Fragrance allergens in baby lotion. The label lists them, but in small print, and you have a few seconds at the shelf.

What it detects

  • Additives

    Hidden additives and E / INS numbers

  • Allergens

    The 14 major EU allergens and trace warnings ("may contain")

  • Cosmetics

    Risky cosmetic ingredients (INCI)

  • Your avoid list

    Ingredients you want to avoid

A "may contain" hit gets the "Trace" tag. If you have an allergy, treat it as present.

How it decides

The verdict comes from fixed rules, so the same label text always gives the same result. Each hit shows its risk level and a plain reason, with sources where they apply.

Who it helps

  • A child with allergies

    Add the allergies to a Child profile. Each scan lists them first.

  • Baby skin

    Scan the ingredients of a cosmetic before first use.

  • A dog that ate a snack

    Scan the packet. The Dog and Cat profiles flag ingredients known to be risky for pets.

  • An ingredient you avoid

    Add it once, and the app flags it every time.

Hard-to-read labels

Small print, curved bottles and low light cause reading errors. IngrediScan corrects the common ones: swapped letters, split or merged words, cut-off edges, and garbled "may contain" text and E / CI codes. It reads labels in 21 Latin-script languages and shows ingredient names in your language.

Privacy

The camera only reads the label. Camera frames are never saved or sent. Saved analyses, with optional photos and barcode, stay on your device. You can delete them at any time or export everything to one ZIP file.

Scanning works without internet. A barcode lookup goes online only when you ask for it. There is no account. Read the full privacy policy.

The assessment is for information only. It does not replace the manufacturer's label or advice from a doctor or vet. Text recognition (OCR) can miss part of a label, so an empty result does not mean the product is safe.
