๐Product Owner / Developer / Founder ๐
2018 / 2020Lifyzer Healthy Food Solutionโข is a social-food mobile app that aims for transparency and opinions between customers. It allows users to share their feedback on food items and rate them.
Thanks to its clever OCR and barcode scanning technologies (using Google Mobile Vision and Firebase), it also instantly gives the health score and useful details about items you regularly eat or purchase.
In order to give the most reliable data available on the different continents, Lifyzer partially uses OpenFoodFacts, Foodrepo.org, and the US FoodData Central (FDC), which are the biggest open-source nutrition databases.
Available on iOS (a native app built with Swift):

As well as on Android (natively coded in Java):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lifyzer
The apps use a simple REST API built on top of PHP 7.2 and using MySQL database.
Finally, Iโm currently working on a food search engine, based on Algolia ๐
Lifyzer is 100% transparent with its users. Thatโs why the project is 100% open source ๐ช
