Scan a barcode — or just snap the ingredients label — and Nomi instantly tells you whether a food is ultra-processed, and explains why in plain English.
As featured on
BBC's The One Show featured Nomi as a go-to tool for spotting ultra-processed foods — helping viewers make smarter, healthier choices every time they shop.
No nutrition degree required. Point your phone at any food product and let Nomi do the reading.
Scan the barcode, or photograph the ingredients label when there isn't one. Both take seconds.
A clear answer — Not Ultra-Processed or Ultra-Processed — based on the NOVA system, with the reasons why.
Tap through for a plain-English breakdown of each ingredient — what it is, and whether it's cause for concern.
Every product gets an unambiguous verdict backed by the NOVA classification — the same framework used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
A quick daily check-in builds into a personal report connecting your mood, body and UPF habits — so you can spot your own patterns, not someone else's averages.
Nomi remembers so you don't have to. Every scan is saved to your history, favourites keep your go-to products one tap away, and search lets you check products before you're even in the shop.
Fresh from the latest version of Nomi.

Nomi only needs camera access to read barcodes and ingredient labels. Nothing is shared without your say-so.
Yes. Nomi is free to download on iOS and Android, and you can start scanning straight away — no subscription required to try it.
Nomi uses the NOVA classification system — the same framework used by researchers and dietitians. Foods made with industrial formulations and additives such as emulsifiers, artificial sweeteners, colourings and flavourings are classed as ultra-processed (UPF).
Just photograph the ingredients label instead. Nomi reads the list, explains each ingredient in plain English and gives you a clear verdict.
Scanning uses the internet to look up product data and analyse ingredients, and we keep things fast even on poor connections. Your camera works offline.
