Hey ProductHunt! 👋 I'm Monty, a Public Health Nutritionist from Australia, and I built SnackScan because I was tired of nutrition labels being confusing math homework. The problem: You're standing in the snack aisle, squinting at a label showing "247 calories per serving" — but what does that actually mean for YOUR body? The solution: SnackScan instantly converts those numbers into something real: "18 minutes of walking" or "12 minutes of swimming" — personalised to your age, height, weight, and sex. Why it's different: • No calorie counting or food logging required. • Everything stays private on your iPhone (no accounts, no cloud). • Works offline with live camera scanning. • Built by a nutritionist, not a tech company trying to sell ads and data. Why I'm proud to publish this: This isn't another generic diet and calorie tracking app. SnackScan celebrates informed choices and public health education. Scan a granola bar, see it's 12 minutes of your usual jog, decide if that works for your day. Our belief: No guilt, no restrictions. Just clarity. The free version gives you everything you need. Premium (A$2.99/month) adds planning tools and scan history for power users. Try it: Point your camera at any nutrition label and watch the magic happen. It takes 3 seconds to scan, 30 seconds to understand. I'll be refining and polishing the UI over the next few weeks, with more premium features in the works including adaptive energy requirements based on Apple Watch input.
