  • We pioneered the collaborative scanning app in 2012. With this experimental app, we’re reinventing it from the ground up.
  • Install it on Android (Google Play, F-Droid or Amazon App Store) or iPhone/iPad. Note that a internal development build (Android or iPhone/iPad (App Store) if you'd like to use the results of your PRs quicker.

app showcase

  • Smooth-app is developed in parallel to the openfoodfacts-dart plugin, which provides a high level interface with the Open Food Facts API and openfoodfacts_flutter_lints which provides specific linting
  • Every new interaction with the API should be implemented in the plugin in order to provide these new features to other developers.
  • We support desktop platforms (Linux, macOS and Windows), but only for development

Thanks

The app was initially created by Primael. The new Open Food Facts app (smooth_app) was then made possible thanks to an initial grant by the Mozilla Foundation in February 2020, after Pierre pitched them the idea at FOSDEM. A HUGE THANKS 🧡 In addition to the core role of the community, we also had the support from several Google.org fellows and a ShareIt fellow that helped us eventually release the app in June 2022.
