We started as Sugar Free – the first app to reveal hidden sugars and decode ingredients straight from the label. Most scanners still rely on outdated databases – limited, inaccurate, and blind to what really matters. Now we’ve evolved into Emma – the next generation: an AI that truly understands food. It reads any label or barcode from any country, translates it, and explains in plain words what’s safe and what’s not. Stop eating blind – let Emma protect your health.

The Sugar-Free Food Scanner App is an excellent tool for health-conscious individuals aiming to monitor and reduce their sugar intake. With its user-friendly interface, quick barcode scanning, and detailed nutritional breakdown, it helps users make informed choices about their food. While it offers valuable customization options and educational tips, the app could improve by expanding its product database, adding offline capabilities, and enhancing its global adaptability. Overall, it's a practical app for promoting healthier eating habits, despite minor limitations like premium feature restrictions and internet dependency.

What you achieved with the previous Sugar Free launch is impressive, especially reaching #4 Product of the Year. Seeing how the project evolved into Emma is even more inspiring.

Is a relevant tool that helps people like me to take control of their eating habits. It's smart, practical, and exactly what's I needed.
Thank you guys 😍

This is such an important topic! Congratulations to the new ones! Do you protect the substitutes for the tsukr, which are more often than not the worst tsukor. If this is so, then how and what minimal quantity can you identify? Do you know that the distributors may not indicate on the packaging if the share is very small - which you identify and inform the supplier? You touch on an important topic, but you're focused on sugar, which is important, but I don't think the list is complete. You should think not only about sugar and identify it, but it is also important to say that the product contains maltadextrin or starch. Not the starch that is in potatoes, but the one obtained by processing - it is more dangerous than sugar.

Hello Slava, thank you for your review and for exploring our app! To answer your questions: We focus on evidence-based information. Currently, our app detects hidden sugars, but in our January update, we’ll also include sugar substitutes and sweeteners. The update will explain which substitutes may affect your health and which are safe. As for minimal amounts in products: scientifically, tiny amounts have no negative impact. Most substitutes used by manufacturers are FDA-approved and meet strict safety standards. If not listed on the label, the amount is too small to matter. Some substitutes are safe for regular use, but excessive doses of others can cause digestive issues. This new feature will be part of our big January update, which will also detect allergens, preservatives, and E-components. Lastly, we noticed you gave 4 stars. Could you share why? Have you tried the app in real-life situations? Your feedback helps us improve!

My wife has diabetes and I am able to see the debilitating effects of sugar in her diet. The label scan feature is a big boon for users to identify sugar masquerading in alternative names. The success of the app will depend on the will of the users to implement the advise genrated.
