About Diet Radar - Food Scanner

Diet Radar scans the ingredients list on food labels in real time and compares them with your dietary requirements, allowing you to quickly identify food products that don't fit into your diet! DietRadar takes care of checking for those hard to remember ingredients so you don't have to!

Works offline so is perfect for people who do not have access to the internet while shopping.

Diet Radar currently only works with the English language.

Diet Radar comes pre-loaded with 7 different diets:

• Vegetarian
• Vegan
• Dairy Free
• Gluten Free
• FODMAPs
• Salicylate Free
• Palm Oil Free

These diets cover many of the hidden and hard to remember ingredients we find in modern day food products. The diets can be modified in order to achieve a complete listing of all the ingredients you can't have.

To scan a food product simply hold the camera steady on the ingredients label of a food product and watch as the ingredients you can't eat are printed in red and surrounded by a red rectangle.

For detection tips and further explanation read the help section within the app.

• Camera - This is to allow for the detection of ingredients using the devices camera.
• Internet - This is required for the first time use of the app to download device specific optimizations. Also used to display Ads.
• Vibrate - Allows the device to vibrate when detecting a black listed ingredient.

Cuts my shopping time I'm half. It checks all ingredients on the back of the packaging so I don't have to! Saves me confusion time and so convenient! I use it daily. Love. Love. Love it!!!

Z70%
by Z####:

You have to enter the item or items you wish to look for for it to scan. What? It won't scan like other apps do by having the bar code in the designated area.

Does not work at all. Very disappointed. Tried it at home and it did not highlight anything. Had high hopes because I am on the fodmap diet. :(

by Z####:

Great app but if the FODMAP diet could be split into High FODMAP and Low FODMAP, this would be pretty amazing.

Please add alpha-gal allergy (red meat) as a pre defined diet. Thanks.

Terrible. Failed to scan ingredients.

P70%
by P####:

Great for FODMAPs. Question, how does the edit list of foods work? Thanks

K70%
by K####:

This appears to be working well for others but for some reason it didn't scan the ingredients well. It would highlight a few or parts of the words, some words were irrelevant and some were missed altogether. But saying that give it a go, it might work better for you?

Very useful app. Helps me find non vegan additives even in low light or microprint. UI is clean and simple, easy to use and very stable. character/word recognition is really good and it has caught things that I would have skimmed over. Image capture is as good as your camera and lighting, works great on my s5. Wish it would keep a history though.

Lets you scan ingredient lists with your camera, and lets you choose your own diet if needed. Includes bad FODMAPS!

M70%
by M####:

I tried it on may food ingredients labels. It mis-indentified a number of high FODMAP ingredients and it miss others. Furthermore this app cannot tell you how of a high FODMAP ingredient a food contains. One needs to know the amount of FODMAP a food contains in order to determine if the food is or is not high FODMAP. The Monash FODMAP app who developed the FODMAP diet is a much better and 100% reliable source of FODMAP information about the FODMAP content of foods

X70%

Great idea, simple to use, seems pretty accurate so far. I only worry if it ever make a mistake and the developer gets a law suit, wouldn't want that to happen! Maybe need some legal jargon in the description to avoid this!

X70%
by X####:

Smart app works well. Could be faster maybe a widget? By the time I load I've usually read what I need to. Great for big lists for sure.
