DawaLens

DawaLens helps you understand the medicines you take and the food you eat — in clear, simple language, in your own language.

Point your phone at a medicine strip and DawaLens reads it back: what the medicine is, what it is commonly used for, and warnings based on the allergies and conditions you have saved. It also checks the price against the government ceiling price, so you can see whether you are paying a fair amount, and points you to lower-cost generic equivalents. On the food side, scan a meal or a packaged barcode to log calories and nutrition, get simple traffic-light guidance on sugar, sodium and fibre, and see healthier swaps suited to your health conditions.
