Hey everyone 👋 I built Allergo after years of struggling to explain my food allergies while travelling - especially in places where even small translation differences can completely change the meaning. One moment that really stuck with me was realising that the word for “peanut” isn’t consistent across Spanish-speaking countries. That’s when I started thinking there should be something more reliable than Google Translate or standard allergy cards. Allergo focuses on: • Clear allergy communication (not generic translation) • Localised wording depending on country (work in progress) • Simple cards you can show in restaurants, available in-app and in Apple Wallet It’s still early, so I’d genuinely love feedback - especially from anyone who travels with allergies or manages them for family members. Happy to answer any questions, and really appreciate any support 🙏

Good job! I like the idea, specially given this can be a disaster when you're travelling with a kid.
Although I'm not sure if I want a seperate mobile application on my phone specifically for this.

@rightsum Hi! Would you prefer a physical card? There are of course benefits of both, an app allows

wallet pass access, quick card creation and more
