Yuppa
What is actually inside a product, read from a photo of its label
Most of what a package tells you is on the front; most of what matters is on the back. Yuppa reads the back. Photograph a food or cosmetic product and it identifies the item, reads the ingredient list, sorts every ingredient into a risk band and scores the product out of 100 — nutrition for food, ingredient safety for cosmetics.
How a scan works
- Photograph the label. Camera or gallery. There is no barcode step: a shot of the ingredient list grounds the analysis in the real label rather than in a guess at the product.
- The list is read and classified. Every ingredient lands in one of three bands — no concern, medium risk, risky — with a plain sentence saying what it is. An ingredient the app cannot place is never called safe.
- One score, with its reasons under it. Food also gets nutrient values per 100 g and a processing tier. Cosmetics are judged on their INCI names alone.
- The report says how sure it is. A result read off a label is not the same as one recognised from a photograph, and the report says which one you are looking at.
What it checks for you
Set these once and every report is compared against them before you see it. The comparison runs on your phone; these preferences are never sent anywhere.
- Allergens — gluten, milk, egg, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, fish, shellfish, sesame. When one is declared on the label, the warning is the first thing in the report.
- Diet — vegan or vegetarian. Where the answer cannot be established, the report says so rather than passing the product.
- Health goals — less sugar, less salt, less saturated fat, fewer additives, measured against the values declared per 100 g.
- Skin — dry, oily, combination, sensitive or balanced, applied only to products meant for skin.
Food and cosmetics, judged differently
A biscuit and a face cream do not deserve the same test. Food is scored on what it is made of and what it declares per 100 g. Cosmetics are scored on their ingredients alone — no nutrition table, no processing tier, because those numbers mean nothing on a tube.
Yuppa PRO
Every scan is an AI call, so scanning opens with Yuppa PRO. It is sold weekly or yearly; the store shows the price and the period in your own currency at the moment you subscribe, and those are the terms that apply. The yearly plan may carry a free trial — three days at the time of writing, once per store account. When a trial ends the subscription renews automatically at the price shown and keeps renewing until you cancel. Every plan carries a fair-use number of appraisals per period, shown in the app.
Languages
Sixteen languages on Android, five on iPhone. The analysis is written in the language the app is set to, and a report you saved keeps the language it was written in.
Yuppa is not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any medical condition. Its scores, risk bands and warnings are general information, not medical advice. Ingredient lists change: check the packaging, and talk to a doctor, pharmacist or dietitian before decisions about allergies, diet or skin.
