Barcode scanner

Scan a package barcode to add it to your grocery list, without typing a product name.

How it works

1

From the grocery list, tap the barcode icon and point the camera at a product’s barcode.

2

ChopCue looks it up against Open Food Facts and UPCitemdb.

3

A match pre-fills the item’s name; if nothing is found, you can type the real name directly instead of a dead end.

Why it matters

Coverage is genuinely strongest in Europe and the US, which is an honest limit rather than a bug, but for the products it does recognize, it turns "what is this jar actually called" into a two-second scan instead of typing it out by hand.
