MenuView - Visual Menu Stop ordering blind. MenuView turns any restaurant menu into a visual guide so you know exactly what a dish looks like before you order it. Point your camera at a menu, and MenuView scans it, identifies every dish, and generates a photo of each item within seconds. Whether you're at a neighborhood spot or a restaurant where you can't read the menu, you'll always know what you're getting. See Every Dish MenuView generates a realistic photo for every item on the menu. Scroll through dishes like you're browsing a food magazine, tap any item for a closer look, and order with confidence.
