How it finds a product

  1. Scan the barcode

    One number finds it in Korea's public food safety data. Fastest and most accurate.

  2. No match? Photo of the ingredients

    Take a photo of the ingredient list and nutrition table. You check and fix the text before it's analyzed.

  3. Or search by name or front photo

    If the barcode is damaged, type the name or photograph the front and pick the right product.

FAQ

How is the app different from the web?

Same information. The app has a faster camera, medication reminders and on-device text reading. The web works without installing anything.

Who decides the score?

No one picks scores by hand. They're calculated from nutrition facts, the additive dictionary and published rules, all listed on the 'Grading & additives' page.

Does it mean a product is "safe"?

No. It shows what we found in the ingredient list; the package label comes first. If you have a severe allergy, always check the package.

What if a product has no information?

It isn't in the public data yet. You can analyze a photo of the ingredients right away, or report it so we can fill it in after review.

Where do my photos go?

Ingredient photos are read on your device. Only product photos you choose to upload go to our server, and they're shown after review.
