V1.2.14: A Clearer Picture "Protect your local data. Keep the evidence. Stay in control." Private Local Transfer Move profiles, saved products and notes, scan history, pet profiles, evidence, replies and retained photos between LB iOS installations in one password-protected, authenticated file. Imports are fully validated before replacement, with recovery for interrupted restores. LB does not upload the archive or recover forgotten passwords. Choose a local Files destination to avoid cloud syncing. Android transfer files are not compatible. Product Rediscovery & Open Prices Find products again through web search and source links. Tap to look up barcode-linked community price observations, including price, currency, date and location. Coverage may be incomplete or outdated. Observations do not confirm stock, delivery or availability. Product Memory & Change Detection Keep up to 12 distinct evidence snapshots per product, with dates, sources and retained label panels. With Scan History enabled, rescanning preserves earlier evidence; versions can also be saved explicitly. Compare ingredients, allergens, nutrition, recognized hazard codes and reviewed text. Differences can result from incomplete captures, different sources or recognition errors, not necessarily reformulation. Multi-Photo Label Capture Combine up to 8 reviewed package panels while preserving original recognized text and edited wording. Retain photos when history is enabled and storage succeeds. Repeated lines are flagged for review. Food, pet-food and cosmetic scans require ingredients; supplies can use warning or SDS panels. Missing captures do not mean information is absent from the package. Saved evidence and photos have deletion controls and are marked for exclusion from cloud backup. Package vs. Database Use Review this package to compare the real label with a saved database result. Both sources remain separate, with ingredient-text differences highlighted and available allergen and nutrition evidence shown. Unverified label interpretations do not silently replace database fields. Pet Mode 2.0 Create cat and dog profiles with life stages and sensitivity terms. Review recognized food declarations, possible species mismatches and broad protein descriptions. Compare two foods using the dry-matter calculator. Text matches are not diagnoses; missing matches do not establish suitability. Calculations remain approximate and do not certify nutritional adequacy or replace veterinary advice. Manufacturer Reply Records Save up to 20 replies per product with questions, dates, claimed senders, barcode or batch details and follow-up points. Replies remain unverified correspondence and never change warnings or declare a product safe. Translating private replies requires confirmation. Nothing is sent to manufacturers automatically. Cleaning & Supply Guidance Review captured SDS excerpts for ventilation, protective equipment, handling, storage, first aid and disposal. Selected non-English headings are recognized. Missing sections remain unknown. Compare saved compositions for recognized bleach combinations with ammonia or acids. This limited check never declares a mixture safe. Consult real labels and current, complete SDS documents. Database Traceability & Voice Check release fingerprints and inventories for all six bundled databases and 755 existing records. This adds traceability, not new scientific review or database expansion. Unknown sources and review dates remain identified; remote knowledge-pack updates are not included. Ask Voice Mode what changed, where package and database evidence differ, or which panel needs checking. Answers use stored evidence and explain gaps. Interface text and evidence answers follow the selected-language translation flow; availability depends on the device and translation service.
