An application in 33 languages to educate the consumer but especially to help him is a very good undertaking. Through it, I hope to reach a better awareness of the rights and obligations of consumers.

Amazing app! Incredibly useful thanks to a complete and updated database of products and emergency phone numbers. The best app an average consumer can download in order to stay informed! It also has some other cool features

Adding a product should be easy. Please add an OCR engine for the list of ingredients picture with the possibility to edit those fields before saving. Very good initiative with this application.

Advertised on tv as an app for managing old appliances. It didn-t recognize my bread maker's QR and how could anyone think old products still have bar/QR codes.
★☆☆☆☆Balaur Popescu· Dec 17, 2023
I don't understand why all the reviews are positive, I tried to scan 10 food products from lidl and the application didn't find any products, it's useless, it can't be used
★☆☆☆☆Andrei Prodan· Nov 5, 2022
Can't scan any bar code even if I allowed the camera permission.
★☆☆☆☆Dragos Dinu· Oct 31, 2022
No product recognized. Apart from phones and map the main function is not working. No products found when scanning.
