◆ 80 MILLION USERS ◆

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.

◆ 4 MILLION FOOD PRODUCTS ◆

Every product is evaluated according to 3 objective criteria: nutritional value, additives, and the organic dimension of the product.

◆ 2 MILLION BEAUTY PRODUCTS ◆

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.

◆ BEST PRODUCT RECOMMENDATIONS ◆

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.

◆ 100% INDEPENDENT ◆

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.

    like the app so far, I just wish it would introduce AI Translation of some product ingredients for non UK produce

    Why don't you call out harmful oils? Major omission
    Developer reply · 6 Oct 2026
    Hi, Gregory! Yuka does take oils into account. Oils are penalized when they are partially or fully hydrogenated, as this process can produce harmful trans fats. Non-hydrogenated oils aren't penalized simply for being oils, but their saturated fat content is considered in the nutritional score -🥕 Ileana

  7. ★★★★★ sosana N · 5 Oct 2026 · v5.5.2
    love this app I just wish there is easier way to add product on your list like just take pictures and upload to your system instead typing everything in it takes to long. But otherwise I use it daily
  8. ★★★☆☆ Mr Leon · 5 Oct 2026 · v5.6
    Apparently, the algorithm thinks 1.5 grams of saturated fat is a health hazard. The human body requires at least 50+ grams of dietary fat daily for hormone regulation, brain function, and nutrient absorption. Stop demonizing basic macronutrients with your rigid, context-blind scoring. 1.5 g on a organic sleeve of cheese or some nuts. It's the same for 1-3 g of sugar , that's just plain ridiculous and I am personal trainer and Health coach - have low body fat of 12 % . straighten your app out .

    Hi there! Yuka is a label decoder & not a personalized nutrition app. Our nutritional score is based on Nutri-Score and considers saturated fat and sugar alongside calories, sodium, protein, fiber, and fruit/vegetable content. The goal is to help users understand labels and compare products, not to determine individual dietary needs. 💚-🥕 Ileana

    This app is amazing, nothing comes into my home without being scanned first, I've put sooooo many products back on the shelves. I really couldn't believe how bad some products are, even products designed especially for babies and children!!! Thank you 😊 If I could suggest one thing it would be putting my history into alphabetical order or something, I cant tell you how many times ive scanned the same product lol 😆
