About this app

◆ 70 MILLION USERS ◆

Yuka scans food, beauty & personal care products to decipher their ingredients and evaluate their impact on your health.

In a world of incomprehensible labels, Yuka provides clarity in one quick scan so you can make clear-sighted purchases.

Yuka uses a simple color code to inform you of the product's impact on your health: excellent, good, mediocre, or poor. You can access a detailed info page for each product, to help you understand its grade.

◆ 3 MILLION FOOD PRODUCTS ◆

Every product is evaluated according to 3 objective criteria: nutritional value, additives, and the organic dimension of the product.

◆ 2 MILLION BEAUTY PRODUCTS ◆

The scoring method relies on analyzing all of the product's ingredients. Every ingredient is assigned a level of risk, based on current scientific research.

◆ BEST PRODUCT RECOMMENDATIONS ◆

For any product with a negative grade, Yuka will recommend in total independence a similar product that's better for your health as an alternative.

◆ 100% INDEPENDENT ◆

Yuka is a 100% independent application. This means that product evaluations and recommendations are completely objective: no brand or manufacturer can influence them in one way or another. In addition, the application does not advertise. Find out more about our funding on our website.

Ratings and reviews

Great app. Very useful, it informs you of all of the positives and negatives of each product on your health. The only problem I have, is that it takes points off the total score if there are any additives at all, even if they are no-risk. Which, isn't much of a problem for me because I can decipher that myself, but it may not be accurate for people who base their judgement, purely off the number.

I don't know if other people just had a bad experience, but I just downloaded this app to help me lose weight and see what I am eating, and this is an accurate app! Yuka shows you what's the negatives and positives are to the food you scan, and it even has a rating to se eif the food poor, well, and good! This app really deserves 5 stars.

Amazing app, learning more about products I assumed were health-conscious choices. Very easy to use and not that difficult to add a product that isn't in the library of products. One caveat, I found some of the cosmetics are low scoring due to allergens, but my wife uses them because they give her no allergic reactions compared to many other products she has tried. So be aware to read why something scores low, and even then you might be able to use effectively (with caution).
