📖 BROWSE RECALLS FOR FREE
Freely browse food recalls published by the FDA and USDA — no scanning and no subscription required.

🔍 SCAN YOUR PRODUCTS
Scan a product's barcode, then its lot/batch number: Numeline instantly checks, by brand and lot, whether it matches an official FDA or USDA recall. Ideal for your groceries, your inventory, or incoming shipments.

🥗 ALLERGENS & DIET
Set your allergens (the major allergens) and foods to avoid (pork, shellfish, gelatin, alcohol, beef…), or thresholds for sugar, fat, or salt. On each scan, the app compares the product's details (Open Food Facts data) to your profile and alerts you if the product concerns you. Useful for allergies, intolerances, diets, and diabetes. This information is declarative and may be incomplete — always check the label.

🚨 RECALL ALERTS
Get notified if a product you've already scanned becomes subject to a recall: monitoring continues automatically, even after your scan and even when the app is closed.

📋 COMPLETE INFORMATION
For each FDA/USDA recall: brand, reason (listeria, salmonella, allergen, foreign object…), affected lots, distributor, and what to do.
