Is Digit-Eyes abandonware?

iOS and iPadOS

Many of the items in my pantry that I routinely need to identify aren't listed in the databases of barcode scanner apps, so I am thinking about spending some time adding them manually.

One app that supports this feature - and one that I already own - is Digit-Eyes. However, it hasn't been updated for more than 4 years. I don't want to spend time on this project only to find that the app I have used is broken by a change in a future iOS update and the developer isn't active to resolve it. So, does anybody know if there is any life at Digit-Eyes, or has it effectively been abandoned?

If anybody has recommendations for another barcode scanner that allows you to add barcodes manually, this would also be good to hear.

I still use Digit-Eyes and also Seeing AI. But what I like about Digit-Eyes is that once it identifies the bar code, under the more info heading, I can get all of the nutritional information as well as all of the ingredients. I can't always find all of that information on Seeing AI.
