Can I eat this?
Scan a barcode, search, or snap a photo. SafeBelly checks the food against every condition you live with and tells you in seconds: yes, no, or eat with care.

“Greek yogurt, a 100g pot.”

How much matters
Most foods aren't simply safe or unsafe. SafeBelly shows the answer at a small, typical and large portion, and how much you can have and stay in the green.
- Small, typical and large, side by side
- How much is safe for you, in grams
- Per-group FODMAP thresholds from published research
Check in with one tap
Log what you ate, then tap how your belly feels a couple of hours later. For FODMAP-sensitive profiles, SafeBelly shows which FODMAP groups line up with how you feel.
- One-tap belly check-in on Home and in your diary
- A gentle reminder after meals, if you want one
- Patterns from your own check-ins, not a diagnosis
Not just verdicts — a journey
Most food apps stop at “avoid this”. For IBS and other FODMAP-sensitive profiles, SafeBelly's Guided Journey walks you through the same three-phase protocol dietitians use, learns your personal tolerances, and measures progress by how much you can add back — never by what you cut out.
Every one of these numbers is a person hesitating over a label — in a supermarket aisle, a friend's kitchen, the back of a menu — hoping they've got it right.
Get early accessElimination — a calm reset
Strict, cautious verdicts while your gut settles. SafeBelly does the label-reading for you, so a reset doesn't mean living on plain rice — your safe list keeps growing even in the strictest phase.
Reintroduction — test, don't guess
One food group at a time, at set challenge doses. SafeBelly sets the challenge doses, reminds you on challenge days, and turns the outcome you record into your personal tolerance, so a reaction becomes data, not a setback.
Maintenance — your rules, proven
Verdicts adjust to the tolerances you actually demonstrated, within safe limits. A food that reads eat-with-care for most people can read yes for you, at the dose you've tested. The goal was never a shorter list — it's a longer one.
Your conditions are nobody's business but yours.
What you can and can't eat is some of the most sensitive data there is — the law agrees (GDPR Article 9). It's encrypted on your device and in transit, it's never sold, and it never feeds anyone's ads.
“Celiac disease. IBS — fructans confirmed, lactose fine at small portions. Bloating after Tuesday's dinner, settled by morning.”
One app, one price. No freemium.

Common questions
Is there a free version?
No. Every scan costs us real compute and careful data work, and a watered-down free tier would mean weaker answers for the people who need them most. We'd rather be honestly paid than dishonestly free. Start with the 7-day free trial instead — cancel within 7 days and you pay nothing.
Why is a card required for the trial?
Because our users have a health need, not a window-shopping habit. Your payment is handled by Apple, never by us, and cancelling within the 7 days costs nothing.
How accurate are the verdicts?
We score per FODMAP group and per portion, using thresholds compiled from published, peer-reviewed research — and every verdict explains why in the app and names its data sources. Each release is validated against a held-out test set before it ships. Where data is uncertain we say so, and on allergens an unknown is always treated as “check the pack”, never as safe.
Which conditions does SafeBelly cover?
Sixteen condition profiles, stackable — every scan is checked against all of yours at once. The headline four: IBS (dose-aware FODMAP scoring), celiac disease (a hard block on gluten), food allergies (any of the 14 EU-recognized allergens), and prediabetes (carb-dense or high-sugar servings read eat-with-care — never a hard no — with carbs, net carbs and glycemic load shown). And a dozen more, built on the same cited engine: histamine intolerance, acid reflux / GERD, functional dyspepsia, IBD, EoE (six-food elimination triggers), SIBO, endometriosis, general bloating, lactose intolerance, fructose malabsorption, functional constipation and diarrhea with fiber and caffeine surfaced, and a general food-intolerance option. More follow — each one only when we can support it properly.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
It's yours. Export your diary and symptom history anytime. If you delete your account, we erase your data within 30 days — as UK/EU law requires and as we'd want for ourselves.
Which platforms does SafeBelly run on?
iPhone, with Android to follow. Your profile, safe list and diary sync to your account. Checking a food needs a connection, but your diary works offline and syncs when you're back.
Can I use SafeBelly in the UK or outside the US?
Yes. SafeBelly is US-focused but available worldwide — prices are shown in USD, and the App Store charges you in your own local currency at checkout. UK and international customers get the same app and the same 7-day free trial.
Eat without the second-guessing.
Point. Tap. Know. Get early access, scan your first food in thirty seconds, and see exactly why it's safe for you, or why it isn't.
