What's New in Sprout

2.0.0

August 29, 2026

Sprout is now a barcode scanner. Scan a packet and get a straight answer for YOUR child — judged against their exact age, their allergies and their dietary needs, not a generic adult. • No photos. Scan the barcode, or search by name. • Allergen hard blocks — we stop you before the score, not after it. • Age gates that matter: honey before 12 months, whole nuts before 5. • The six food colours that carry an EU warning about children, called out plainly. • Plain English throughout. No scores to decode. • What to buy instead — better options on the same shelf. If a product's label doesn't tell us enough, we say so rather than guessing.

Not helping enough

You MUST take a photo to log, which is annoying if I forget or can’t… I then have to find generic photos to use. Too much time spent.
