Since 2021, the European Union has allowed the addition of ground insects (such as beetles, cockroaches, and mealworms) to foods as a source of protein. There are also many foods that contain additives (such as carmine and shellac) obtained from insects (such as scale insects).

Don't want to eat insects? The Insect Scanner program helps you easily identify these foods. It works as follows:

• Scan the barcode on the packaging.

• The application immediately indicates whether the product contains insects or not.

• It also displays more information (such as Nutri-Score, origin, and more).

Key features:

• Extremely fast: Barcode recognition is based on the latest technology, and you'll see the result instantly.

• Highly intuitive: The color red means insects found; the color green means everything is fine.

• Offline mode: Over 1000 products in the local database - this is how you can identify products in the supermarket even without an internet connection.

• Continuous improvement: New products are constantly being added. If a product is unknown, you can add it yourself.

• Important additional information: Additional information such as Nutri-Score, product origin, and added ingredients.

The application is actively under development, and we look forward to receiving your feedback!
