Your pet can't read labels. Barkode can. Point your camera at any pet food — scan the barcode or photograph the ingredients panel — and get one honest, one-glance answer: FEED IT, FEED WITH CARE, or DON'T FEED. JUDGED BY THE RIGHT RULES FOR YOUR ANIMAL Barkode isn't a dog app with a cat mode bolted on. Every species gets its own nutrition rules: • Cats — obligate carnivores: real animal protein and taurine, not carb fillers • Dogs — named meats and whole foods, and real toxin checks (xylitol) • Fish — aquatic protein over grain fillers that cloud your tank • Reptiles — insect protein, calcium and D3, not sugary filler • Horses — forage and fiber first; high-sugar feed is a laminitis trigger • Pigs — balanced grain-and-protein rations with proper lysine • Birds — pellets and veg over all-seed diets, and never avocado …plus an honest catch-all for every other companion. MADE PERSONAL Add your pet. For dogs, one photo identifies the breed. From then on every label is judged for YOUR animal — its species, its breed, its allergies — with a "Judged for Bella" call on every scan. WHAT YOU SEE ON EVERY SCAN • The call, in plain words — never a cryptic score • What's good — the wholesome ingredients we recognized • What we flagged — each ingredient, why, and how serious • Best foods for your species — clean picks if this one falls short PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No email. Scan photos are processed and discarded. Your scan history lives on your device. FREE TO TRY, HONEST FOREVER One free scan every 30 days, forever. Barkode Pro is unlimited scans: $5.99 per month or $39.99 per year (Barkode Elite Annual). Subscriptions auto-renew until cancelled. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase; manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings. Informational only — not veterinary advice.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SmartXY at none against Barkode's 2. Barkode's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
