I just launched YUPE, an iOS app that helps travelers understand and order from restaurant menus—even when they can’t read the local language.
Why I built it
Food is one of the best ways to experience a culture, but language barriers often make it hard to know what you’re ordering.
I wanted a way to explore any country’s gastronomy confidently—even if I couldn’t read the menu or speak the language.
- Scan a menu
- Chat with it — Ask questions like “Is this spicy?” or “Which dishes are dairy-free?”
- Get personalized suggestions — Based on your preferences and allergies
- One-tap order — Generates a polite, localized message you can show to the waiter
Privacy
- No sign-up required for core features
- Your food preferences are stored anonymously to personalize responses
- Website: https://yupe.app
- App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/yupe-dine-anywhere/id6743195643

But I suspect you meant highlighting the screenshots more. Thanks for the feedback — I’ll check how to make a larger screenshot fit better in the design.
