Everything about scans, verdicts, family food notes, and how IngrediCheck stays neutral.

How it works

You get a verdict for each person's food notes: Match, Not a match, or Needs review, plus a plain-English explanation of why the label was flagged that way.

IngrediCheck turns technical ingredient lists into plain language and shows what matters for your food notes, so you do not have to decode the same label on your own.

AI helps read the label and explain ingredients faster, but the product is designed to give you neutral guidance you can review for yourself.

IngrediCheck is built to explain ingredients without fear-based language. It helps you review the label and make your own decision.

IngrediCheck reads the product's ingredient list from a barcode scan or a photo of the label, translates it into plain language, and checks it against each person's food notes to give a verdict, Match, Not a match, or Needs review, with an explanation of why.

Food Notes

Yes. You can set up food notes for different family members, then use one scan to see what fits each person.

Food notes are the dietary preferences and ingredients you want to keep track of, like allergens, additives, or anything you would rather avoid. IngrediCheck checks each scan against them.

Open Food Notes in the app, choose the family member you want to update, then add, edit, or remove items in the relevant section, such as Avoid, Allergies, or Preferences, and save. Your updated notes are used for every scan from then on.

Food Notes live in the app menu. From the Home screen, open the menu and tap Food Notes to view and edit each family member's allergies, foods to avoid, and preferences.

You can add as many food notes as you need for each family member. Longer lists are simply shown in groups, so nothing gets left out.

Using the App

IngrediCheck is available on both iOS and Android, so you can scan products from your phone wherever you shop.

Yes. Along with scanning a barcode, you can take a photo of the ingredient label, so you can still get a verdict when a product has no barcode or it will not scan.

Your recent scans are saved in the app so you can revisit them. However, we don't currently offer a way to delete your scan history.

Unfortunately, IngrediCheck is currently only available in English. However, you can chat with the in-app assistant in many languages, just write in your preferred language and it will reply in the same one.
