For a question about a product, include the barcode and a photo of the pack (ingredients and nutrition table).
Lichi PRO and free scans
How much can I scan for free?
Without PRO: 3 new products a day, plus 5 gift scans after your first product; the gift does not expire. Scanning the same product again on the same day does not count.
How do I get Lichi PRO?
In Lichi, open Profile → Lichi PRO and choose monthly or yearly. The App Store shows the price before you buy.
How do I cancel?
On iPhone: Settings → your name → Subscriptions → Lichi → Cancel Subscription. Or in Lichi: Profile → Lichi PRO → Cancel, which opens the same Apple window. Cancel at least 24 hours before the free week or the paid period ends; PRO keeps working until the end of what you paid for.
New iPhone or reinstalled the app
Open Profile → Restore Purchases. Use the same Apple ID you subscribed with.
How do I get a refund?
Apple takes the payment, so refunds go through Apple: reportaproblem.apple.com.
Score and data
How is the 0–10 score formed?
Lichi takes the product’s ingredients and its nutrition per 100 g / ml, then shows one overall score.
Why can a high-calorie product still score well?
Because calories are only one factor. Nuts and oils are calorie-dense, for example, but they can contain favourable fats and other useful components.
Why can a low-calorie product score poorly?
Low calories on their own do not mean a good ingredient list. Sugars, the type of fat, refined ingredients, and other factors matter too.
Why doesn’t an E-number lower the score automatically?
The E number itself does not mean an ingredient is harmful. Lichi judges that ingredient’s specific role and properties.
Does Lichi take allergens into account?
Yes. When allergen information is available, Lichi shows it separately. An allergen on its own does not lower the product’s score.
Why can Lichi’s score differ from Nutri-Score?
Lichi uses its own scoring method and looks at the ingredient list as well as the nutrition figures.
The wrong product was found, or the data is wrong
Check the name, photo, and ingredients on the pack. Data from outside databases can sometimes be incomplete or out of date. Send us the barcode and a photo of the pack at lichisupport@gmail.com, and we will fix the data.
Can I use Lichi offline?
You can open your scan history and saved products without internet, but new scans and search need a network connection.
Your data
No account is needed. Your scan history, Saved products and settings are stored only on your phone and are removed when you delete the app. Read more in the Privacy Policy.
