Point the camera at a barcode — or at the ingredients list — and Kinza shows in two seconds how healthy the product is, what is worth your attention and whether it suits you and your family.

- Your own avoid list: palm oil, sweeteners, nitrites, artificial colours.

Verified App Store Reviews
Life saver for family food allergies
My son has severe peanut and egg allergies while my daughter is lactose intolerant. Setting up separate profiles in Kinza takes away all the stress of grocery shopping. It spots hidden whey and casein instantly.
October 2026 • App Store ReviewLabel camera scan works when barcodes fail
A lot of imported products in European shops aren't in standard databases. Kinza photo label reading works like magic — it reads the small print on the back and flags nasty preservatives in 2 seconds.
October 2026 • App Store ReviewThe additive explanations are crystal clear
I love that it doesn't just give an arbitrary score — it tells you exactly what NOVA 4 means, why an E-number is moderate risk, and suggests a cleaner alternative right next to it on the shelf.
