Your products, dates and shopping lists in one place. VigiConso helps you organize your pantry and spot information that needs your attention, without creating an account. SCAN YOUR PRODUCTS Scan a barcode or enter it manually. View available ingredients, allergens, additives and scores. Nutrition facts include energy, sugars, protein and salt per 100 g / 100 ml, with per-serving values when a serving size is provided. PERSONALIZE YOUR FOOD PROFILE Choose from 14 allergen categories and set your dietary preferences. VigiConso distinguishes declared allergens, possible traces and words found in ingredient lists. Allergies and preferences stay separate: changing a diet does not change your selected allergens. KEEP TRACK OF YOUR PANTRY Add products, adjust quantities and record dates. Find items to use soon, expired dates and products with a signal for your profile. Sort by priority, recent additions or name and configure expiry reminders. CHECK PRODUCT RECALLS Browse notices from the French public RappelConso dataset and recorded matches with your pantry. Search for a product or brand, then open the official notice to check the affected batch and instructions. VigiConso is independent and is not affiliated with public authorities. ORGANIZE SHOPPING AND PRICE RECORDS Create shopping lists, check off purchases and record prices by store. View available price history and organize your grocery budget. Shared prices depend on available observations and do not guarantee the current price in a store. FIND RECIPE IDEAS Explore suggestions based on your pantry. The food-profile filter checks recipe ingredient names, including pantry staples, and associated pantry products. You can show or hide suggestions with detected signals. LOCAL PREFERENCES Pantry, lists and profile choices are stored on your device. The 20 original recipes are bundled in English, French and Spanish and work offline, without a subscription. Product, price and recall searches still require an internet connection. The app contains Google AdMob ads with consent-choice management. Interface available in English, French and Spanish. PLEASE NOTE Data may be incomplete or change. No result guarantees the absence of allergens or suitability for a diet. Always check the packaging and, for recalls, the batch on the official notice. Recipe checks cannot cover every preparation or cross-contact. Sources: Open Food Facts, Open Prices and RappelConso. Original VigiConso recipes.
