Insect Scanner Plus

Have you ever wondered what’s really inside the food you buy in European supermarkets?

Among complex chemical ingredients and long E-codes like E120 and E904, insect-derived substances may be hiding — and you might never notice them.

The Insekten Scanner app lets you uncover the truth in just one second — because you have the right to know what you eat.

The app works as an intelligent shopping assistant, scanning food products and analyzing their composition to instantly show whether they contain animal-based ingredients such as carmine or shellac.

Whether you’re vegan, allergic, or simply want to eat clean and safe food, Insekten Scanner is the practical solution you need.

How does the app work?

Simply point your camera at the product’s barcode, and Insekten Scanner instantly performs an analysis, displaying the result within a second.

You can also use the advanced manual search to find any product — even if you don’t have it with you.

Type in the product name, barcode number, or a keyword like “chocolate” or “fruit juice,” and the app will show you a list of related products.

Instant and clear results

Safe: The product contains no insect ingredients.

Not safe: The product contains components or colorants derived from insects.

Each result provides detailed information, including:
