You know that person who asks 4x if there are nuts in the cookies? - that’s me.

Not because I’m picky, just trying not to die in your living room.

So here’s the deal:

You set your allergens or any food sensitivites Upload or snap a pic of any food label The app analyzes and translates it if needed (even Japanese) Detects allergens & tells you if it’s safe to eat

Amazing, right?

I’ll be cleaning up some UI bugs, improving the analysis screen animation, publishing (learning) to the App Store soon.

Then put in a support ticket, and we'll call you later.

Health critical apps are the last ones that should be vibe coded.

This is pathethic and any kind of "we're not medical professionals" disclaimers should be void in stupid and actually dangerous apps like this.

Do not know if you suffer from any allergies, but I do and trust me, any tool that provides me with some help on decision making is so important
