## What is Vegan Scanner?

Is it vegan? Point your camera at a plate, a package or an ingredient list, and Vegan Scanner answers — right on your iPhone, in seconds.

No account. No servers. Nothing leaves your phone.

WHAT YOU CAN SCAN
• A plated meal, at home or at a restaurant
• A packaged product
• An ingredient label, even in a language you don't read
• A single ingredient you're unsure about

HOW IT ANSWERS
Vegan Scanner reads the label, translates it when it isn't in your language, and checks every ingredient against a built-in catalog of animal-derived ingredients — the obvious ones and the hidden ones: casein, whey, gelatin, carmine, shellac, L-cysteine, E-numbers.

Then it shows you the evidence. Every verdict names the ingredients it rests on, so you can judge for yourself. When a label only says "may contain traces", it tells you that instead of pretending to be sure. Never a guess dressed up as certainty.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Photos, extracted text and results are processed entirely on your device with Apple Intelligence. Vegan Scanner has no servers, asks for no account, and uses no advertising trackers. Scanned photos are deleted automatically once you're done.

That also means it works with no signal — on a plane, in a basement supermarket, or abroad on roaming.

VEGAN RECIPES
Scanned something vegan? Get recipe ideas built around it, generated on your device.

WHO IT'S FOR
• Vegans and vegetarians reading labels in the supermarket
• Anyone avoiding animal-derived ingredients like gelatin, dairy or carmine
• Travellers facing an ingredient list in another language
• Anyone cooking for a vegan guest

Available in English, Spanish, Portuguese and French.

REQUIREMENTS
The analysis runs on your device, so Vegan Scanner needs an iPhone with Apple Intelligence enabled, on iOS 26 or later.

Vegan Scanner gives evidence-based guidance. It is not medical advice, an allergy service, or a vegan certification.
