Check any menu or label against every allergy
Add every allergen once, for you or your child. Scan a menu for the dishes that fit and what to ask. Scan a label for allergens under any name.
Try it free for 3 days.
At a restaurant
Your best options come first. Any of them that contains one of your allergens, or needs a question first, is marked with the reason and the question to ask, like "Is the cucumber salad dressed with sesame oil?"
In the grocery aisle
Allergens are flagged by the names they hide under, like casein and whey (milk), albumin (egg) or tahini (sesame). The pack's own "contains" and "may contain" lines are read too.
For the whole family
Add a profile for each person, each with their own allergies and notes, and switch between them before a scan.
For anyone who cooks for you
Share a food card that lists the allergies, so a host, a grandparent or a babysitter has them in one picture.
No barcode needed
Foodwell reads the ingredient list printed on the pack in your hand, not a product database. So it works on store brands, imported food and anything without a barcode, it sees a recipe that has changed, and it works on restaurant menus, which no database covers.
Questions people ask
Is there an app that checks a restaurant menu for food allergies?
Yes. Foodwell reads a photo of any menu, puts the dishes that fit your profile first and marks any that contain one of your allergens or need a question before you order.
Which allergens can I add?
More than thirty, including peanuts, tree nuts, dairy, eggs, sesame, soy, gluten, fish and shellfish. You can add several to one profile.
Does it warn about traces and "may contain"?
Yes, unless you turn it off. A setting called Avoid traces covers "may contain" statements and shared equipment.
Can I check food for my child or someone else?
Yes. Each person gets their own profile, and a scan checks the profile you pick.
Is Foodwell free?
You can try it free for 3 days. After that, scanning needs a subscription, which you can cancel anytime.
