enjoy the meal.
You sit down somewhere in Rome or Tokyo, open the menu, and recognize nothing. MenuSnapp is for that moment: photograph the menu and read it back in your language — every dish, what it actually is, and what it costs in your money.
Translation
Translated by meaning, not word for word.
Camera translators swap words in place — that's how you end up ordering “jumped noodles, grandmother style”. MenuSnapp translates the way a local would explain it: Carciofi alla Giudia becomes “Jewish-style artichoke”, but Cacio e Pepe stays Cacio e Pepe — its literal “cheese and pepper” moves into the description, where it helps you instead of renaming the dish. Printed menus, chalkboards, six-page cartes — it reads them all, in 30 languages. The app itself speaks 28, picked up automatically from your phone.
Prices
Prices you can actually judge.
Every dish shows the menu's price and what that means in your money, converted at current rates. Switch your currency later and every saved menu re-converts on the spot — including the ones you scanned weeks ago.
Popular here
It knows where you're sitting.
MenuSnapp finds the restaurant you're in (and asks, if it isn't sure), then reads its Google reviews so the menu opens with “Popular here” — the dishes regulars keep mentioning, not the ones with the biggest photos. Every scan lands in History with the restaurant attached, so the little place in Lisbon isn't lost forever.
Every dish
Tap a dish before you commit to it.
Each dish opens into a small page of its own: what to expect and how it tastes, the story behind it, dietary tags, photos, and what diners at this exact restaurant said about it. Photos are always labeled with where they came from — a diner's shot, a general photo of the dish, or an AI image in the app's house style. No pretending.
Pricing
Your first 5 menus are free.
No account, nothing to set up. After that, one credit unlocks one whole menu: 5 for $1.99, 15 for $4.99, 30 for $8.99. Eating your way through a longer trip? $7.99 a month, unlimited.
A menu you've unlocked stays unlocked — reopening it from History is always free. You can buy without creating an account, and if you sign in later your purchases follow you to a new phone.
About us
We built the app we needed.
We make travel apps for problems we keep running into on our own trips (touristtraps.app is ours too, if you want to check it out). MenuSnapp exists because menus abroad kept beating us. If something looks off, or you have an idea — or a translation made you laugh — write us at [email protected]. Every message reaches the team, and we read everything.
Scan your first menu tonight — it's free.
