I don't know if it's possible or not.
Add or change best before date with smartphone camera.

Hey, this is not easy to implement because it would require a text recognition package in our app (which increases size to another level) and reading of many available formats.

Also many best before dates are printed with small dots instead of solid characters on bottles, tins and similar products and OCR libs probably wouldn't recognize the text correctly.
