Frequently Asked Questions

How does NoJunk scan food labels?

NoJunk uses advanced AI-powered OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology combined with GPT-4o Vision to instantly read ingredient labels. Simply point your iPhone camera at any ingredient list, and NoJunk will identify every ingredient and provide health scores within seconds.

What are harmful food additives and E-numbers?

E-numbers are codes for food additives approved for use in the European Union, ranging from E100 to E1520. They include preservatives, colorants, sweeteners, and flavor enhancers. Many E-numbers and artificial additives have been linked to health concerns including allergic reactions, hyperactivity in children, and potential long-term health risks.

Is NoJunk free to use?

Yes! NoJunk is completely free with no subscription required. We believe everyone should have access to tools that help them make healthier food choices. The app includes 10 free AI-powered scans per hour, which is more than enough for regular grocery shopping.

How accurate is NoJunk's ingredient analysis?

NoJunk uses OpenAI's GPT-4o Vision API, one of the most advanced AI models available, to analyze ingredient labels. Version 2.0 includes improved accuracy even in poor lighting conditions. The AI cross-references ingredients against comprehensive databases of food additives, preservatives, and E-numbers to provide reliable health scores.

Does NoJunk store my photos or personal data?

No. While ingredient images are temporarily sent to our cloud service for AI analysis, they are immediately discarded after processing and never stored. Your scan history stays on your device only. NoJunk collects no personal information, no location data, and uses no tracking or analytics.

What do the color codes mean?

NoJunk uses a simple traffic light system: Green means the ingredient is safe and healthy, Orange indicates caution (consume in moderation), and Red flags harmful ingredients you should avoid. Each ingredient also receives a 0-100 health score for more detailed assessment.

Can I use NoJunk for grocery shopping?

Absolutely! NoJunk is designed for real-time grocery shopping. Scan products before you buy them to compare similar items and choose healthier alternatives. Your scan history is saved so you can reference it later when making repeat purchases.

What devices support NoJunk?

NoJunk requires iOS 17 or later and is compatible with iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac (with Apple Silicon), and Apple Vision. The app is optimized for iPhone but works great across all Apple devices.
