Think you’re buying from a cool indie granola brand? Surprise—it’s owned by the same conglomerate that makes engine degreaser and (allegedly) sells your info to the CIA. Buy’r is your pocket-sized truth serum: scan any grocery product and see exactly who profits, from your local co-op to a megacorp with 19 shell companies and a yacht named Tax Haven. While other apps rate your food or hand out “approved” badges, we don’t tell you what’s good or bad. We just show you the facts—who owns it, what’s in it, and how processed it is—so you can decide what fits your life, values, and oddly specific food rules. Because real empowerment doesn’t come from a green checkmark—it comes from knowing the truth. OUR MISSION: We’re a small, self-funded team on a big mission: radical transparency in the grocery aisle. No corporate backing, no brand sponsorships—not even from the “cool” ones. Whether you're avoiding shady corporate practices, trying to support real small businesses, or just tired of decoding labels that sound like marketing Mad Libs, Buy’r puts the power back in your hands—where it belongs. DISCOVER THE TRUTH BEHIND EVERY PRODUCT: Barcode Scanning - Point. Scan. Boom, instant dossier on the product, brand, and parent company. CIA-level info without the espionage. Ownership Discovery - Find out if that "small batch, artisanal vibe" is real or just another product of a corporate rebrand strategy. Brand & Company Spotlights - Deep-dives that feel like true crime documentaries—but for shampoo and salad dressing. SMART SHOPPING TOOLS: Custom Ingredient Filters - Whether you're allergic to gluten or just emotionally allergic to corn syrup, filter it all. Presets, breakdowns, the works. Shopping Lists with Full Integration - Build lists that actually sync with your pantry. No more accidental double-buying basil for the fifth time. Pantry Manager - Take control of your pantry like the food hoarder CEO you were born to be. Recipes and meal planners are in development. Receipt Scan Import - Snap a pic of your Kroger or Walmart receipt—get your pantry logged in faster than a teenager logging into TikTok. NUTRITION & TRANSPARENCY: Detailed Nutrition Breakdown - We don’t just show calories—we show what those calories are hiding. Ultra-processed red flags, ingredient types, and what your food is actually made of (hint: it's not love). Community Ratings & Reviews - Because the hive mind can be smarter than the label. See what real people think—no bots, no BS. EDUCATIONAL & ENGAGING: Interactive Quizzes - Think you know who owns your “indie” oat milk? Let’s test that brand loyalty. Random Spotlight Carousel - A surprise-a-day from family-owned gems you probably missed while being hypnotized by mega-brand marketing. 31 Achievement Badges - Scan. Learn. Flex. Prove you’re not just a consumer—you’re a conscious one.

Reps is a workout logger built for lifters. Build templates, log sets, track personal records and see recovery context alongside your training. TRAINING THAT KEEPS UP Plan workouts with target sets, reps, rest intervals and progression rules. Start an assigned workout or an empty session, adjust exercises, add notes and review your history. Core logging works offline, with account sync when you reconnect. RECOVERY CONTEXT With your permission, Reps uses available Apple Health data to calculate Sleep, Prime, Tension and Reserve on your device. Compatible devices contribute the measurements they share with Apple Health. Coverage varies by device; Devices & Apps shows the available sources. You can also record sleep, tension and energy check-ins without a wearable. An optional direct Oura connection is available within a limited rollout, currently capped at 10 connected accounts pending wider approval. Connected accounts can include recent, read-only Oura workout summaries in local history. Apple Health and manual check-ins remain available without a direct Oura connection. Your workout summaries, body measurements and some derived summaries can sync to your signed-in account. Daily Log and Coach history have separate sync controls. See the privacy policy for the data each feature uses. REST TIMERS AND WIDGETS Keep track of rest from the app, lock screen or Dynamic Island. Add widgets for training and activity context. GOALS AND SHARING Set workout and duration goals, follow other lifters and share workouts using your chosen visibility settings. DEVICES AND SETTINGS Connect a compatible Bluetooth heart-rate monitor for live workout readings. Find device connections, training preferences, health settings, appearance and privacy controls in organized Settings categories. WORKOUT FILES Import one activity at a time from TCX files, with visible results and duplicate detection. FIT files are not supported in this release. AI features and paid upgrades are not available to ordinary public accounts in this release. Cycle partner sharing and a standalone Apple Watch app are not included.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: My Reps at none against Buy'r's 2. Buy'r's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 months) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
