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.
â—† 3 MILLION FOOD PRODUCTS â—†
Every product is evaluated according to 3 objective criteria: nutritional value, additives, and the organic dimension of the product.
â—† 2 MILLION BEAUTY PRODUCTS â—†
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.
â—† BEST PRODUCT RECOMMENDATIONS â—†
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.
â—† 100% INDEPENDENT â—†
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.

Absolute Godsend. This app is amazing, I scan my food and bam I know how good it is. 100 is the best option, 0 the worst. It's really opened my eyes to how bad some food and drink are for you, despite them seeming healthier. It's amazing to look into detail about why it's bad etc, it allows me to weigh up my options and decide if the negatives are OK with me. It's really helped me find better alternatives for my food and drink. I can't be without it now!

Easy to access info to help me make healthier decisions. Take into account it uses a French nutritional rating based system which may be different from what you are used to. Love that for cosemtics it shows the ingredients and why they are considered an issue as well as how it can be a problem and their sources and for food it will break down the components per 100g (like protein, sugar and salt)

Very pleased with this app so far, and on the recommendation of other users have upgraded to the premium version. I've not tried scanning own-brand goods, but the database for name-brand items seems pretty extensive and I like the way the app lists alternatives rather than just pointing out the positives and negatives. This app has become indispensable. What it now needs is the ability for users to organise things into categories (ie folders) of, say, healthier alternatives vs unhealthy ones.
