What is Label: Ingredient Scanner?

Label: Ingredient Scanner is a food transparency tool that provides direct access to USDA nutrition facts and ingredient lists via barcode scanning. It distinguishes itself by avoiding subjective health scoring or algorithmic judgments, focusing instead on objective data presentation and side-by-side product comparisons.

Current Momentum

v1.1

Cholesterol and potassium are now on every label, in the right order. The full FDA layout: Calories → Total Fat → Cholesterol → Sodium → Total Carbohydrate → Protein → Potassium. Serving multiplier. Wondering what three servings of that cereal adds up to? Tap − and + below the Per Serving toggle to scale every value. The label updates instantly. Compare from your saved list. Tap ⇄ in Favorites or Recents to pick two products you've already scanned. No re-scanning required. Share and copy. A share button on every product result generates a clean image card you can send anywhere. The copy button next to it puts the full nutrition label on your clipboard as plain text — paste it into Notes, a message, wherever. Scan from your photo library. Took a photo of a product in the store? Open the scanner and tap Library. Label reads the barcode from the image. Type a barcode. Scanner couldn't read the packaging? Tap Manual on the scanner screen or type the number directly on the "No Product Found" screen. Filter your saved products. A search bar at the top of Favorites and Recents filters by name or brand as you type. Allergen tracking. Set your allergens once in Settings — Milk, Wheat, Peanuts, and six others. When a product contains one, it's noted on the label in amber. No warnings, no scores. Just information you asked for. Data source. Each product now shows quietly whether it came from USDA or Open Food Facts.
