Great App So Far
For what it does this App is great! Just running into the issue of a lot of items I’m scanning are not in the system yet. I’ve been submitting products as I go but there’s a lot.
I have a recommendation
I love the app and have been using it for a week. I really feel like this would really improve the app so I wanted to inform the developer about it. While doing the sign up process there are certain things which are asked of people; their wants and avoidances of certain food categories. As an example I’ll use the terms disaccharides and sulfites from the app. Let’s say a new user sees these terms and doesn't know what they are. It would be really cool if there was a way for its information to be displayed through a double click or if it was just there. I hope I came up with something useful.

Barely Works
I got this app to use the scanner for my dairy allergies, and wow did the thing barely work. It gave me false positives on completely safe foods (there is no Parmesan in traditional Ragu, what are you talking about??? And EnjoyLife cookies are explicitly allergen free, that’s the POINT of them.) It goes out of its way to shame you for eating anything but rabbit food even if you don’t ask it to consider a low sugar or low sodium diet. Not using again.

Missing Seed oils as a dietary dislike
I downloaded this app to help me avoid seed oils. While I do think the app is well done, I do not believe I will be able to rely on it much without vegetable/seed oils as a dietary dislike category. This category includes Corn, cottonseed, canola, soy/soybean, safflower, sunflower, grapeseed, ricebran oils.
If you add this, 5 stars for sure!

I have never reviewed an app but this one deserves it.
I have to be on a strict diet while breastfeeding my daughter and this app has been a lifesaver. The amount of “hidden” ingredients that exist out there is crazy and this app helps keep me from spending all day in the grocery store reading labels.
Thank you!!!
I never leave reviews but I had to for this! I just found out my 3 year old is allergic to eggs. I have been struggling searching for things she can and cant have! Trying to figure out all these “other names” they can use for eggs. This makes it so much easier for me! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I love this app, but it has issues.
This app is an amazing shopping helper if you’re looking to be more careful about what you’re buying. However, it has some issues that make it less usable than I want it to be. It seems like any attempt at editing profiles or lists ends in an error message. The search function could also be improved, as you don’t really get to see all the results when you search something. For example, I searched “condensed soup” and only got a handful of results when I know there are many, many soups logged on the app. It would be nice to have more results and maybe even a way to filter them in the future.

Had problems installing this app
Had this app a couple years and then took it out and just recently tried to reinstall this app. I tried three or four times and it keeps showing up a message that I have no WiFi connection or error.
Accessible to vision impaired but app could be better.
I want to thank the developers of this app for making it completely accessible to vision impaired people. I haven’t found one feature that does not work with voiceover on my iPhone. There are many companies that do not do that. Thank you so much.
That being said, the products in your database are very limited. There are some brands from areas of the country that are not represented at all. Your barcode scanner will not recognize anything with H-E-B or Hill country fair brand on it. Almost all brands and your database are not carried by the stores in my area. Please represent more regions of the country that have grocery store chains not represented in your database.

Most of the products I scan are Unknown
Is this App recently new? Because when I scan my food it says “unavailable” like it’s not updated or something.
