• Applications are more responsive and have a more robust appearance
• Ability to automatically add the place where the product was scanned
• Smart autorotation for barcode in android (no need to turn the phone)
• Can add pictures taken with the phone photoroll
• Send notifications from time to time to propose to log a product.
• Create an account on openfoodfacts from your mobile
• There are areas where the touch make much sense ( eg. rotate images, select the images and image areas to identify logos, packer codes, nutritional information... )
• Ability to edit section by section
• Mobile autocompletion
• Propose a game that asks simple question after simple question to tag existing products
• Add a timer for cooking based on the barcode and our data
• Add more fields that are mobile optimized (directly a numeric Keypad for weight, for example)
