Come back to it

Every scan is saved on your phone. Filter by type, swipe one away, or select many and delete them together.

Your scans stay yours.

Truth has no accounts and no servers. Barcodes go to Open Food Facts, a non-profit open database, only to look products up. Ads come from Google AdMob, and where the law requires it you choose what it may use.
