Questions
Is Mimmo free?
Yes. Everything about the season of fruit and vegetables is free. The list holds 7 items, you get 3 scans a day and one recurring basket; Premium removes the limits and adds the Premium categories.
What are baskets?
The shopping you do often, saved under a name, say “Saturday shop”. One tap puts it back on the list. With Premium you save as many as you like, and Mimmo tells you when something is about to go out of season, with an in-season alternative.
What happens if Premium ends?
Nothing is deleted. Your list stays whole and works as usual, but above 7 items you can't add new ones. Premium products already on it keep their name, with a lock. All your baskets stay: you use one, the others wait for you.
Do I need an account?
No, it's optional. Without one, what you save stays on your phone; sign in with Google to find your list and favourites on another phone too.
Does it work offline?
Yes. The catalogue lives inside the app. You only need the internet for a new barcode (via Open Food Facts) and for Premium.
Which countries and languages?
Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, France, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, the Netherlands and Denmark. In Italian, English, German, French, Dutch and Danish.
What does “to be verified” mean?
Months where the sources are less certain. The app still shows them, but says so. Sources are at the bottom of every product in the app.
What about the scanner's pictures?
No photo is saved or sent. Only the code number leaves your phone, to Open Food Facts, and only if Mimmo doesn't know it yet.
