VeraLens is an iPhone and Apple Watch food scanner that scores products, flags allergens, and explains the rules and data behind each result.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-24 issue.
For
Food shoppers checking ingredients, nutrition, or allergens
Worth noticing
The page says missing nutrition values are disclosed, never counted as zero, and can limit a score.

Field notes

The scoring description starts every food at 100, deducts for amounts above published thresholds, and allows limited additions for fibre and protein. A sample result attributes an added-sugar deduction to Open Food Facts and gives the export date. The page says preference notes for allergies, halal, or vegan status do not alter the numerical score; cosmetics are identified as beta.
