Eat out without the guesswork. Point your camera at any menu, in any language. Forkiee reads it, tells you what each dish actually is, and checks every one against your allergies, your diet and how you want to eat tonight. Then it tells you what to order. AT THE TABLE • Reads printed menus, handwritten boards and screens, in any language, and answers you in yours • Checks every dish against your allergies, traces included, plus intolerances, diets and goals • Explains a dish you have never heard of in one sentence, with a photo where there is one • Hands you the sentence to say to the waiter, in the local language, with the translation • Takes follow-up questions the way a person would: something lighter, no nuts, more protein BUILT AROUND HOW YOU EAT Peanut, tree nut, milk, egg, fish, shellfish, soy, wheat and sesame, with traces handled separately. Gluten free, dairy free, vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, halal, kosher, keto, low carb, low FODMAP. High protein, fewer calories, less sugar, whatever you are working toward. YOUR ALLERGY CARD, IN NINE LANGUAGES Show the kitchen a card that says exactly what you cannot eat, written in the language they read: English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Turkish and Japanese. AFTER DINNER • Photograph the bill and Forkiee splits it, down to who ordered what • Keep the table in your Taste Passport, with your own photo of the plate • Send calories, protein, carbs and fat to Apple Health as estimates, if you want them "It made me feel confident that I have choices." App Store review FORKIEE PRO Forkiee Pro unlocks everything in the app. Monthly and yearly plans are shown in the app, and the yearly plan comes with a free trial where your Apple Account is eligible.

HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT KNOWS Forkiee reads what a menu says and what a dish usually contains. Kitchens change and recipes vary. Nutrition figures are estimates, shown as ranges, and Forkiee tells you when it is unsure. It is not medical advice: always confirm allergens with the restaurant staff.

Menu Calorie Scanner
Read full descriptionHide full description
Point your camera at any restaurant menu and see the calories before you order — no typing, no guessing, no hunting through a food database dish by dish. Menu Scan reads the whole menu at once. It recognizes every dish on the page, then estimates calories, protein, carbs, and fat for each one and scores how healthy it is from 0 to 10. Instead of ordering blind and regretting it later, you get the full nutrition picture of the table in seconds — and it all runs on your device, so it works even with no signal in a crowded restaurant. WHAT YOU GET - Point-and-scan a printed menu and read every dish's nutrition at a glance - Calories plus protein, carbs, and fat estimated for each dish - A 0-to-10 health score so the smartest choice jumps out - Dietary flags for vegan, vegetarian, keto, paleo, gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, and halal - Compare two dishes side by side before you commit - A saved history of past scans plus favorites you can pull up any time PERFECT FOR - Anyone counting calories or macros who eats out and hates guessing - Keto, vegan, and gluten-free diners scanning menus for safe picks - Gym-goers protecting a protein target at restaurants - Travelers reading unfamiliar menus in a hurry WHY NOT JUST LOOK IT UP? Because typing every dish into a food-tracking app while your table waits is slow, and half the restaurant items aren't in the database anyway. Menu Scan reads the actual menu in front of you and gives you the numbers instantly — one scan, whole page. Values are smart estimates for general guidance, not exact medical figures. PRIVACY Scanning and text recognition happen entirely on your device. Your menus and scans stay on your phone — there is no account and nothing is uploaded to a server. FULL ACCESS Menu Scan is free to try with a daily scan limit. Unlock unlimited scans, the full insights dashboard, the weekly meal planner, unlimited saved history, and advanced dietary filters with Menu Scan Pro: - Weekly plan - Yearly plan - Lifetime (one-time purchase) Subscriptions auto-renew until cancelled; manage or cancel any time in your App Store account settings. Scan your next menu before you order and eat with the numbers in front of you.
