Accepted Answer

You can set preferences (such as allergens or dietary choices) to highlight ingredients that may matter to you. Always check the product label and follow professional guidance if needed.

Take a photo of the ingredient list. The app extracts the text and returns a neutral explanation of ingredients, tailored to your preferences.
