Helal Scan: Halal Food Scanner

Is it halal? Scan the barcode and know in seconds. Helal Scan reads the ingredient list for you and gives a clear answer — Halal, Needs Checking or Not Halal — naming the exact ingredient that caused it and why, in plain words. Long German labels, hard additive names, E-numbers you have never heard of: the app reads them so you do not have to. WHAT YOU GET • A clear answer with every flagged ingredient named, not a bare label • The reason for each flag, in plain language • Foreign labels explained in your language — no translating in the aisle • Look up an E-number or additive and see at a glance whether it is a concern • Search by product name or brand across 27,000+ products • Manufacturer statements where we have obtained them, quoted directly • Scholar opinions on the ingredients scholars genuinely disagree about • Saved results stay readable offline — useful in a supermarket aisle • Product missing? Photograph the label; text recognition runs on your phone • Save what you buy often, and find past scans in your history LANGUAGES Reads ingredient lists in English, German, French, Turkish, Arabic, Spanish, Italian and Dutch. The app itself is in English, German, Arabic and Turkish. HONEST ABOUT ITS LIMITS This app is not a fatwa and not a halal certificate. It screens the declared ingredient list. It cannot see manufacturing processes, ingredient origins, processing aids or cross-contamination. When something is uncertain it says so instead of guessing — "Needs Checking" is an answer, and the app uses it. PRIVACY No account. No third-party tracking. Photos never leave your device — text recognition runs on the phone, and only text is sent. What we receive is the barcode you scan, what you search for, a random device ID that is not linked to you, and anything you deliberately submit. Your scan history is stored against that ID; Clear Scan History in the app deletes it. While Share anonymous usage is on in Settings, we also see which screens you open; in the EU, the EEA and the UK it stays off until you turn it on. Ingredient data partly via Open Food Facts (ODbL). Always verify anything that matters with a qualified authority.
