## What is Frifor?

Many foods are ultra-processed. Lots of them contain additives that are hard to find on the packaging and even harder to understand. If you have allergies or intolerances, there's even more to keep track of.

We've rebuilt the app from scratch, with more focus on you. Build your own compass by telling the app what you want to avoid, and Frifor lets you know when a product contains any of it.

WHAT YOU GET

- Food scanner: See what a product contains, whether it's ultra-processed and whether it has additives you want to avoid
- Allergens: An overview of the 14 most common allergens, such as gluten, milk, nuts and shellfish
- Your compass: Tailor the app to what matters most to you, whether that's E numbers, carrageenan, smoke flavouring or allergens
- Product database: Hundreds of thousands of products from shops in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany and the UK
- Shopping list: Add products straight to your list as you scan
