Frequently Asked Questions

How does Checkly work?

Checkly scans product barcodes using your phone's camera, retrieves nutritional and ingredient data, and scores each product against your personal health goals and dietary preferences.

Where does the product data come from?

Product data comes from Open Food Facts, an open-source, community-maintained database with over 3 million products worldwide. Some products may not be in the database yet.

Is Checkly a replacement for medical advice?

No. Checkly provides general food information based on your selected preferences. It is not medical or dietary advice. Always consult a healthcare professional for specific dietary needs or medical conditions.

How many free scans do I get?

You get 10 free scans. After that, you can upgrade to Checkly Premium for unlimited scans. Your profile, preferences, and scan history remain accessible on the free tier.

How do I cancel my subscription?

Open Settings on your iPhone, tap your name at the top, tap Subscriptions, find Checkly, and tap Cancel Subscription. You will retain premium access until the end of your current billing period.

How do I restore my purchase on a new device?

Open Checkly, go to Profile, and tap "Restore Purchases". Make sure you are signed in with the same Apple ID you used for the original purchase.

Can I delete my data?

Yes. Go to Profile and tap "Reset All Data" at the bottom. This will delete your profile, preferences, and scan history. Uninstalling the app also removes all locally stored data.

Why does Checkly need camera access?

The camera is used only to scan product barcodes. Camera images are processed in real-time on your device and are never stored or transmitted.

A product I scanned shows wrong information. What should I do?

Product data comes from a community database and may occasionally be inaccurate. Always verify critical information (especially allergens) by reading the actual product packaging. You can contribute corrections at openfoodfacts.org.
