About this app
ā 61 MILLION USERS ā
Yuka scans food & personal care products to decipher their ingredients and evaluate their impact on your health.
In a world of incomprehensible labels, Yuka provides clarity in one quick scan so you can make clear-sighted purchases.
Yuka uses a simple color code to inform you of the product's impact on your health: excellent, good, mediocre, or poor. You can access a detailed info page for each product, to help you understand its grade.
ā 3 MILLION FOOD PRODUCTS ā
Every product is evaluated according to 3 objective criteria: nutritional value, additives, and the organic dimension of the product.
ā 3 MILLION COSMETIC PRODUCTS ā
The scoring method relies on analyzing all of the product's ingredients. Every ingredient is assigned a level of risk, based on current scientific research.
ā BEST PRODUCT RECOMMENDATIONS ā
For any product with a negative grade, Yuka will recommend in total independence a similar product that's better for your health as an alternative.
ā 100% INDEPENDENT ā
Yuka is a 100% independent application. This means that product evaluations and recommendations are completely objective: no brand or manufacturer can influence them in one way or another. In addition, the application does not advertise. Find out more about our funding on our website.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude for this app. From the moment I first used it, I was thoroughly impressed and have continued to enjoy its features. I particularly appreciate the way it informs me about the nutritional value of the items I scan, including both positive and negative aspects. Then, they gave better healthier options, and most of the time, the alternative was actually cheaper to buy. And including tons of scientific studies backing it up... simply amazing

It's a great app! Free version. The work behind the scenes saves me the time from having to do the research. There's a breakdown of ingredients and explain the risk factors. I scanned a Korean Face cleansing kit, and got the English translation of the ingredients. It doesn't work for all, but I was grateful for that one. They provide healthier alternatives as well. No ads, a plus! I look forward to seeing more products added. For a small yearly subscription, there's more. Thank you, Yuka Team!

Overall all great app and very eye-opening the chemicals in our foods. One thing I would suggest is the ability to see what grocery stores carry the products listed under the (alternative) Recommendations, or even a filter where I can select only recommendations that are available at a particular grocery store. That would be very helpful as I don't know if my store carries all the ones that are listed.
