Scan it. Know it's halal.
Point your iPhone at any barcode — every ingredient checked for a clear halal verdict in seconds. Always free.
Point at any barcode. Clear halal verdict — free.
A scan for any shelf.
Scan the barcode. If we don't have it, scan the ingredient list instead. Either way, HalalReady catches the things you'd miss — hidden alcohol, gelatin, pork, and non-Zabihah meat.
Scan the barcode.
Instant lookup against ~3 million products. Only the barcode leaves your device.
Or read the label.
No barcode? Point at the ingredient list. On-device OCR reads every line and the local classifier returns a verdict.
Rulings that match your school.
The four major Sunni schools differ on a handful of ingredients. HalalReady encodes those differences with sources — and lets you pick one school or follow all four at once. Other apps default to one madhab without asking.
Hanafi
Broader latitude on transformation (istihala). Minor alcohol traces from fermentation often permitted when the substance has transformed.
Shafi'i
Conservative on intoxicants regardless of source. Animal-derived enzymes often require explicit halal certification.
Maliki
Pragmatic on marine animals (all permitted) and shares Hanafi tolerance on small fermentation byproducts.
Hanbali
Strict literal reading of prohibitions. Doubtful ingredients lean toward the cautious verdict — "leave that which is doubtful."
Only the barcode ever leaves your device.
OCR, rulings, and language detection all run on-device. Your camera feed never touches a server. No account. No tracking. No ads between scans.
Three motions. One verdict.
Point
Open HalalReady and aim at the package — barcode or ingredient list, it doesn't matter which.
Scan
The app picks the right path. Barcodes resolve against the global product database; labels go through on-device OCR.
Verdict
Halal, Haram, or Needs Review — with the ingredients that triggered it and the ruling behind them.
No false confidence on questionable ingredients.
Every verdict comes with the ingredients that triggered it and the ruling behind them. No black boxes.
Permitted
All ingredients clear under your selected school. Eat with confidence.
Forbidden
At least one ingredient is explicitly prohibited. Shown with citation.
Source-dependent

Built for the way you shop.
Finally an app that doesn't lecture me about which madhab is "correct." I picked Hanafi and got Hanafi rulings. That's it.
