Yuka AI
Know what's inside before you buy.

Highlights

Clear insights on food and beauty products to guide everyday decisions.

What it collects
No account required
Yuka AI has no sign-in. We never create or collect a user ID, name, email, or password — the app is fully anonymous.
Scanned products & photos
When you scan, the product barcode goes to public product databases, and the product photo or name is sent to a third-party AI service for analysis. The photo itself is kept only on your device; the resulting product analysis is saved to an anonymous shared catalog with no link to you.
Scan history & favorites
Your scan history and favorites are stored only on your device and are never uploaded or synced to a server.
Preferences
Dietary and product preferences (such as allergens, diet, and health goals) stay on your device. They may be included in an analysis request to tailor results, but are not stored on any server.
Subscription status
Purchases are handled by Apple. Subscription transaction events are also shared with a third-party subscription-analytics service. We never receive your card details.
No tracking or ads
No analytics, advertising, or cross-app tracking SDKs are used. The only device permission requested is the camera, for scanning.
Built with
- Secure cloud database & storage — Stores an anonymous, shared product catalog so that once any user scans a product, its analysis is cached for everyone — repeat scans return instantly. No user identity, account, or device ID is attached to these records.
- Third-party AI analysis service — Identifies a scanned product and analyzes its ingredients, nutrition, and health risks. The captured product photo (or product name/ingredient text) is sent for analysis. No user identity accompanies the request.
- Public product databases — Look up food and cosmetic product details by barcode. Only the scanned barcode (or a free-text search term when browsing categories) is sent; no user data is attached.
- Subscription & billing (Apple) — All purchases and subscriptions are processed by Apple through the App Store using StoreKit. Payments are charged to your Apple ID; we never receive or store your card details.
- Subscription analytics service — A third-party service receives subscription transaction events (product ID and transaction) for revenue and subscription reporting. It runs in observer mode — it does not process payments or show paywalls — and it is tied only to its own anonymous profile, never to an app account.
