About this app

CodeCheck is your personal shopping assistant when it comes to healthy and conscious consumption 🕵️‍-. Simply scan the barcode or EAN number of your food 🥗 or cosmetics 💄 and in just a few seconds you can find out whether the products are vegan, vegetarian or gluten- or lactose-free. Additionally, if they contain: palm oil, microbeads, nanoparticles, parabens, paraffins, too much sugar, etc.. CodeCheck also helps you, if you have an allergy to something. Now you can also customize CodeCheck to fit you best. Based on your individual needs, it will give you a personal rating circle which shows whether a product is suitable for you. You can set warnings, for gluten or if a product is vegan or vegetarian or not ⚠️. You will always receive suggestions of better alternatives, too. But CodeCheck isn’t just a product scanner and a smart shopping assistant. It’s also a wiki and a news feed – all in one app 💪!

Good idea for an app. 5 stars idea, I'd say. Though I think that in comparison to other apps $5 (CHF 5) to go ad free is too much, especially in regard that people who want to shop ecologically don't want to see commercial spam ads for unecological products all the time. So, I find the pricing slightly abusive. Also I found that most products I wanted to check with this app so far aren't in the database yet, which renders it more of a training tool (you make a habit of checking product details).

5 Scans per week just because you don't want to pay money is outrageous. I used this app for years since I'm highly allergic to gluten but now it won't even show anymore if a product is gluten free or not! I tried over and over to add it to the list of things I'm allergic to and it just won't work. Really sad because there is still some products like make-up where you can't see the ingredients on first glance. So sad

They tried so hard to make it difficult to gather information for free now. The app is useless if you dont pay. 5 scans per WEEK. And if you search the product manually then the detailed information will not be shown, because you have to pay for that too. So ridiculous. Especially at these times where you can take a picture and ask AI for FREE. And you will probably get more accurate information from AI, since in this app the USER updates the info about the products. 1 star is an exaggeration
