Ingredient Lookup

Features
Read full description

IngredientCheck scans a food product barcode and classifies every ingredient individually against your dietary profile. Halal profile is functional today. Vegan, vegetarian, and kosher profiles are designed in for future versions. What you get: • Every ingredient becomes a tappable, color-coded chip: green for allowed, orange for caution, red for forbidden, gray for no data. • Tap any chip to see what the ingredient is, where it commonly comes from, the verdict reasoning, and the named sources backing the classification (Wikipedia, Open Food Facts, WorldOfIslam, scripture references). Every source has a tappable URL. • Compound ingredients on a label, like "Leavening Agent (E500(ii), Yeast)" or "Parmesan (Milk, Salt, Enzymes)", appear with both the parent name and the parenthesized sub-ingredients — so what you see in the app matches what's on the package. • Halal-aware pattern detection catches subtleties OFF's generic vegan/vegetarian flags miss — alcohol carriers in natural flavors, enzyme source in hydrolyzed proteins, modified starches, wine vinegars. • Manufacturer-declared labels (HALAL, KOSHER, VEGAN, ORGANIC, GLUTEN-FREE) shown when the package declares them — visually separated from our own ingredient analysis, so it's clear which claims come from us and which from the manufacturer. • Recent scans on the home screen — tap to re-open without re-scanning. • Active dietary profile selector in Settings. Transparency: Every classification cites at least one named source. The "Where our data comes from" screen in Settings lists every source the app uses with direct links. We are transparent about what we know and what we don't — including that the highest-authority halal certification bodies (JAKIM, IFANCA, LPPOM MUI, HFA, HMC, MUIS) are not yet integrated. Privacy: No account, no login, no analytics. Scan history is stored locally on your device. The only network requests are anonymous lookups to Open Food Facts and our open GitHub data repo. Disclaimer: Informational only. Not a fatwa. For definitive rulings, consult a qualified scholar or your local certification body. Data source: Open Food Facts (https://world.openfoodfacts.org/). Ingredient classification database: open-source on GitHub at sfc38/ingredient-checker-data, fetched at launch so corrections ship to users without an app update.

Sippd is the wine app for people who actually drink wine. Rate it. Remember it. Share it. No sommelier jargon, no spreadsheets, no homework. Just a good place to log the bottles you love and the ones you'd skip next time. WHY SIPPD • RATE EVERY WINE YOU TRY One tap, one score from 1 to 10, one memory saved. Add a photo of the bottle, a note about where you were, the price you paid, or just the score. Your wine, your rules. • REMEMBER EVERY BOTTLE Your personal wine podium, ranked the way you tasted it. Scroll through your highest-rated wines, browse by region, and jump back to any bottle months later to remember exactly how it felt. • HOST TASTINGS WITH FRIENDS Plan a wine night in seconds. Pick a date, drop a place on the map, build the lineup, send invites. Friends RSVP, rate the wines alongside you, and the night lives on in your shared journal. • SHARE WINES WITH YOUR CREW Make a group for your wine club, your partner, or that one friend who always brings something good. Share bottles, compare scores side by side, and finally settle who actually liked the Barolo. • TRACK YOUR WINE JOURNEY Stats that grow with every bottle. See your favourite regions, your average score, the countries you've drunk through, and how your taste shifts month by month. BUILT FOR CASUAL DRINKERS Sippd isn't for sommeliers. It's for the friend who orders the second bottle, the couple who picks up something nice on the way home, the group chat that argues about Riesling. Modern, warm, and free of wine-snob vibes.
