Everything on the label, made clear

Nutivio turns a barcode into a clear answer: what’s in the product, how it scores, and what you might pick instead.

Free
Barcode scanning
Point your phone’s camera at the barcode on a packaged food or drink and Nutivio looks it up for you.
- Works with the standard barcodes printed on supermarket products.
- If the camera struggles, you can type the barcode in instead.
- Not in our database yet? You can send photos of the pack so the product can be added.
Free
The full product breakdown
Each product shows its Nutivio Score and exactly which parts raised or lowered it.
- Points from nutrition, additives and processing, shown separately.
- Nutrients per 100 g or 100 ml, each marked low, moderate, high or very high.
- Positive qualities and watch-outs pulled out at the top, so you don’t have to read the whole table.
- Where the information came from and when it was last updated.
Free
Allergens & additives
The ingredients list, declared allergens and additives are laid out clearly, so you can see what’s inside at a glance.
- Additives are grouped into concern tiers based on public regulatory reviews.
- Allergens declared by the manufacturer, including “may contain” traces.
- Always check the physical label too, especially for allergies: recipes can change before a database catches up.
Premium
Preferences & allergen alerts
Tell Nutivio what you avoid, such as specific allergens, palm oil, or anything non-vegetarian, and every product is checked against it.
- Three kinds of alert: contains, may contain, or can’t confirm because the data is missing.
- Nutivio never labels a product “safe”. When it can’t tell, it says so.
- Preferences never change the score, so a score means the same thing for everyone.
Free
History & favourites
Every product you scan is kept in your history, and you can save the ones you buy often as favourites.
- Filter your history by score label to spot patterns.
- Remove single items or clear your history at any time.
- Saved to your account, so it follows you to a new phone.
Free
Better picks
When a product scores poorly, Nutivio suggests similar products from the same category that score higher.
- Suggestions stay in the same category, so the swap makes sense.
- Chosen by score alone. No brand pays to be suggested.
- With Premium preferences switched on, suggestions also respect them.
Free
Basket Score
Scan five products from your trolley or cupboard and get one score out of 100 for the whole basket.
- The average of the products’ Nutivio scores, with a confidence level when information is missing.
- Your best and worst product, and sugar, salt, saturated fat and energy at a glance.
- Try your first basket without an account; sign up to keep it.
- Premium adds additives and processing, better picks, allergy alerts, weekly progress and offline baskets.
Premium
Premium search
Look up any product in the Nutivio database by name, brand or barcode, without needing it in your hand.
- Compare products before you go shopping.
- Check something whose barcode is damaged or missing.
- Results show each product’s score, and can be filtered.
Premium
Offline mode
Products you’ve already scanned, saved or favourited stay available when you have no signal, which helps in basement aisles.
- Covers your own scanned, saved and favourited products.
- It is not a copy of the whole catalogue: new products need a connection.
