1.4.0
July 3, 2026
This version is all about additives: a complete E number lexicon to look things up, plus a new way to scan barcodes even when they're unreadable. • Number scan mode: reads the EAN digits under the barcode when the barcode itself isn't readable or is missing. • New additive lexicon: every E number with a short description, origin, example and concerns, all backed by sources. Find it under More. • Info tips in the filter explain every additive category. • Allergens even more precise: free-from claims in the ingredient list now count, and traces appear in red when a matching rule is active. • Swipe to save now shows your saved list status right away. • Easier on your battery and data.
