About SafePlate: Food Safety Scanner
Know what's in every bite. Scan a barcode or snap a photo of any food label, and SafePlate reads the ingredient list and instantly highlights anything that matches your family's allergen profiles — including hidden synonyms like "hydrolyzed soy protein" and "sodium caseinate" that are easy to miss. Built for families juggling milk, peanut, gluten, and 11 more allergens across kids and adults — each person gets their own profile. WHY FAMILIES CHOOSE SAFEPLATE • Honest by design — when a label is blurry or a product isn't in the database, SafePlate tells you it couldn't verify, instead of showing a false all-clear. • Reads hidden allergen synonyms that are easy to miss on a busy label. • A profile for every family member, with the severity tier you assign. • Scans barcodes, printed labels, and restaurant menus. • Plate Intel — per-item allergen intel from a plate photo. IMPORTANT — please read SafePlate is an informational tool, not a medical device, and is not FDA cleared. SafePlate reads INGREDIENT TEXT only — it does NOT verify cooking temperature, doneness, hygiene, cross-contamination, expiration, or storage. You are responsible for cooking to a safe internal temperature, safe food-handling, and verifying freshness. Allergen highlights are not a guarantee of safety; always confirm with the manufacturer's label. In an emergency, call 911 — SafePlate does not call emergency services on your behalf. WHAT'S IN THE APP Per-profile allergen lists • Add a profile for each family member with their own allergen list and the severity tier you assign yourself (mild, moderate, severe, life-threatening). • 14 allergen categories: milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, soy, fish, shellfish, sesame, mustard, celery, lupin, mollusks, sulfites — plus custom user-defined ingredients you'd like to avoid. Beyond allergens — your own ingredient lists • Optional built-in lists for eating patterns you may choose to follow: gluten-free, low-FODMAP, low-glycemic, low-sugar, low-acid, and lactose-free — plus fully custom lists for any ingredient you want to avoid. • Turn any list on per profile and SafePlate highlights matches the same way it does for allergens. It does not recommend or endorse any eating pattern — you decide. Three ways to scan • Barcode lookup against the public Open Food Facts and USDA FoodData Central databases. • Photograph an ingredient label — on-device AI reads the printed text. • Photograph a restaurant menu or plated dish — the app extracts visible text you can review. More tools • Color-coded ingredient summary highlighting any configured matches. • Cooking-temperature and food-handling reminders when meat, poultry, or seafood is scanned (informational only). • Reaction Journal — log a date, food, severity tier, and a photo for your own records. • Allergy cards in 11 languages with a QR code, for handing to a server. • Meal Planner — recipe ideas that avoid any ingredient on your family profiles. • Nearby-restaurant map with allergen tags and notes from other families. Always call ahead to confirm. • Reminders for auto-injector expiration dates you log, and alerts when the public OpenFDA or USDA FSIS feeds post a Class I recall affecting your scan history. • Siri shortcuts, Spotlight search, and full VoiceOver support. PRICING Free: 5 scans per month, 1 family profile, all the personal-reminder features. SafePlate PRO: $6.99/month or $49.99/year — unlimited scans, unlimited profiles, recall feed access, full meal planner, ingredient explanations. 7-day free trial. Auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage in Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions. — Published by Finn Digital LLC. Informational only — SafePlate reads ingredient text and is not a medical device. Always read the manufacturer's allergen statement.
