Question 1

Is SoyPre really independent?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We don't accept paid placements or sponsored recommendations. Our goal is to provide honest, unbiased information to help you make better food choices.

Question 2

How accurate is the product information?

Accepted Answer

Product data comes from open and official databases - mainly Open Food Facts - and from readers who add products. No database is perfect: labels change and some products are incomplete, so always check the pack, especially if you have an allergy.

Question 3

Will my data be shared or sold?

Accepted Answer

Never. We don't sell or share your personal data with third parties for marketing, and there are no ads in SoyPre. Your information stays yours - see the Privacy Policy for the details.

Question 4

Is the app available now?

Accepted Answer

Yes - SoyPre is on the App Store for iPhone and on Google Play for Android.

Question 5

What makes SoyPre different from other food scanning apps?

Accepted Answer

SoyPre is 100% independent: no ads, no paid placements, and every score can be opened to see how it was reached. Scanning is free and unlimited; Premium adds preferences and safety alerts, and you decide what to pay.

Question 6

How is the SoyPre score calculated?

Accepted Answer

Most foods and cosmetics get a score from 0 to 100. For food, nutritional quality (based on Nutri-Score) is worth up to 60 points, additives up to 30 and an organic certification 10. A single high-risk additive caps the score at 49, and a Nutri-Score of D or E keeps it below 50 too, dark chocolate aside. Cosmetics are scored on their ingredients, and the riskiest one sets the ceiling: under 50 with a moderate-risk ingredient, under 25 with a high-risk one. Tap a score in the app to see the breakdown. A few categories - such as alcohol, supplements, medicine and infant formula - are not scored at all, and the app says so.

Question 7

Does SoyPre work for people with food allergies?

Accepted Answer

Yes, with Premium. Switch on the allergens you must avoid in Preferences and every scan is checked against what the pack declares, including “may contain”. We check the label, not the product itself, and if a product has no ingredient list on file we say so. Never rely on an app alone for a severe allergy.

Question 8

What is SoyPre Premium?

Accepted Answer

Premium unlocks two things: Preferences (your diet, what you avoid and allergen alerts) and Safety alerts (a warning when a product you scanned is recalled or flagged by a regulator). Everything else is free. You choose one of three yearly support levels, and they all unlock the same features.

Question 9

Which products and countries does it cover?

Accepted Answer

SoyPre is built first for shoppers in the Philippines, but the barcode catalog is global. If a product is missing, you can photograph its label and send it in - a person reviews it before it is added.
