Not exactly what you describe, but there's Yuka for processed products (food and cosmetics). You scan a barcode and it gives you a score based on the product composition, it's quite helpful: https://yuka.io/en/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

I would have thought the same until I found yuka (https://yuka.io/en/) and saw that they make multi-millions per year. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

There’s a couple really great apps for scanning your products. The one I use more is Yuka. It’s free, and cites scientific sources and descriptions of ingredients as well as recommends alternatives in a non-biased was (brands can’t pay them to promote their products) and there’re very transparent about where their funding comes from. There’s also the EWG.org website (they also have an app but I don’t like it as... Source: 6 months ago

It's not good to use spray tan or any kind of makeup that has toxic ingredients. When I first started covering Vitligo with spray tan, I was using some of the worst products! I'm lucky I wasn't hurt. I found out about the Environemntal Work Group app and the Think Dirty app, but I was still getting products like body lotion, scented soaps etc that weren't good - even though they were reccomended by EWG and TD! ...

In the short term it’s probably fine.

I prefer Paprika as a storage mechanism. It's available (yes, at a cost) on all platforms and works brilliantly.

I scrape web-based recipes into Paprika. Saved into my own database and synced between my devices. Well worth whatever they're charging for it. Source: about 2 years ago

The app Paprika does a decent job at those things, plus allows you to import recipes from websites without having to retype them. There are smartphone and desktop apps, and a cloud sync that keeps your databases on different devices up to date. It does cost money, but it is very much worth the prices. Source: over 2 years ago
