We currently have HTML-based apps for iOS and Android, using a wrapper. We'd very much like have native apps for speed and access to more advanced features. If you're an iOS, Android, Blackberry or Windows Phone developper, we'd very much welcome you :-)

A native application would allow a more fluid use ( PhoneGap app is actually running in a webview , a kind of Web browser, and is suddenly relatively slow and sometimes unstable ) .

* Modification of existing products ( image rotation , selection of specific areas, filling fields)
 
* The application asks to photograph a specific part of the package when the product is marked incomplete
 
* The application offers simple visual recognition challenges that can supplement the missing data ( ie: What brand ? What weight? What protein value ? Which of these images is the nutrition ? Which of these images is the ingredients ? )
 
* Photo Mode (it never leaves the camera mode, with a simple tap to take a picture , and there is a button to change product )
 
* Off-Line Mode to scan products with limited or no connection.
 
 
 
=== Other Apps? ===
 
 
 
* Calculation of calories and other nutrients
 
* An offline version ( avoiding making an internet connection for lookups)
