How does HalalLens verify halal status?

HalalLens uses OCR to scan ingredient lists and checks each ingredient one by one against our ingredient reference. Each ingredient is classified as Halal, Haram, or Doubtful based on available sources and ingredient context.

Is HalalLens free to use?

Yes. HalalLens is free for personal use and intended to stay that way. Some web pages show ads to support the service, and the app does not show ads.

What languages does HalalLens support?

HalalLens supports 16 languages including English, Norwegian, Arabic, Indonesian, Malay, German, French, Swedish, Danish, Turkish, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Dutch, Urdu, and Azerbaijani. The app can also scan ingredient labels in multiple languages.

How accurate is HalalLens ingredient detection?

HalalLens uses AI and OCR to extract ingredients. Accuracy depends on label quality, language, and image clarity, and results are improved over time.

Can I use HalalLens offline?

Core scanning and verification require an internet connection to access the latest ingredient data.
