Three real products, checked
Hidden gluten, a gluten-free label and a “may contain” warning, on three real products
Duration: No sound
Transcript: Three real products, checked
About this video
A short motion-graphics video. Every app screen in it is a screen recording of the GlutenScanning app, in English, in the iOS simulator: a development build with a test subscription, which skips the purchase, and with the app’s decorative animations (the scan line, pulses) off, as with Reduce Motion; otherwise the screens are those of a release build. An automated UI test performed every tap and keystroke. The products are real: their barcodes were typed with “Enter Manually” (the simulator has no camera), and the app looked each one up live on Open Food Facts on 11 October 2026. What the app shows for them (verdicts, reasons, highlighted ingredients) is its own result for the product data of that day, which can change. No app content is added or changed; titles, captions and callouts stay beside or behind the phone. There is no music and no voice-over. GlutenScanning is free to download; using it needs a subscription, which you can try free first.

Check a meal from a photo
Likely allergens from a meal photo, each with its reason
Duration: No sound
Transcript: Check a meal from a photo
About this video
A short motion-graphics video. Every app screen in it is a screen recording of the GlutenScanning app in its demo mode, in the iOS simulator. The scan history is a seeded week of demo scans. The product is a demo product whose verdict and confidence were set by demo mode: no barcode was scanned or looked up, demo mode opens the product sheet directly. The meal photo is a demo photo with a prepared analysis result. No camera, no network and no live AI call were used. No app content is added or changed; titles, captions and callouts stay beside or behind the phone. There is no music and no voice-over. GlutenScanning is free to download; using it needs a subscription, which you can try free first. Demo mode skips the paywall.

Likely allergens — “Each allergen with its reason” “Fish 98%, milk 55%, gluten 35%” “Gluten: flour in the sauce?”
Screen recording, zoomed in on gluten: the sheet scrolls to “Likely allergens”: Fish 98% (“A pan-seared salmon fillet is the centrepiece of the plate.”, suspected in Salmon), Milk 55% (“The sauce on the side looks creamy; butter and cream are common in sauces served with salmon.”, suspected in Sauce) and Gluten 35% (“Creamy sauces are often thickened with wheat flour.”, suspected in Sauce); all three are part of the prepared result.
