Sounds Great— Unfortunately, Too Good To Be True

Biome claims to support holistic diets and symptom management, but it falls short in several critical areas. There’s no way to add individual triggers or conditions, which makes it feel generic rather than personalized. For example, despite stating that I have GERD, it still recommends tomato-based foods—something I absolutely can’t eat.

This app seems geared toward people with little understanding of nutrition rather than those seeking tailored guidance for managing specific health conditions.

To make matters worse, Biome locks its features behind paid plans, which feels like gatekeeping essential health information that should benefit everyone, not just those who can afford it. Unfortunately, this app isn’t for me, and I can’t recommend it.

Response from developer

So sorry you had a negative experience. Our context and history mechanism had a little bug which we just patched today. The next build should be available tomorrow which fixes the diet and symptom management piece. Really appreciate the detailed review. It helps us make this app better. As far as paid vs free, we're trying to find the balance between the two and will consider your suggestion. However, running these AI insights along with a larger context on your history isn't super cheap for us and we are just trying to find a sustainable balance. Hope you give it another try in the future.

Scam

Chat gtp can do a better job for free. Got charged $49.99 and lost access. Can’t get ahold of them. I think I just found my new business opportunity…create scam apps to charge people

Review

Stop asking me to review, my food is not being logged 😕

Response from developer

hey! we just fixed this. it should be good to go in the next update :)

Complete Scam

Save your money. Chatgtp free version does a way better job. Can’t even get a refund back. A shame companies slap “AI powered” and can get away with anything

Helped me lower bloating

I never really cared about tracking my meals for bloating. However using this app cleared up my bloating within a week. The weekly insights have been so helpful!

Thanks for giving Biome a try :)

Game-Changer for Better Eating Habits

This app is truly incredible in both design and functionality. It does everything I hoped for and more. It has helped me uncover patterns in my eating habits that I wouldn’t have noticed on my own. The resources section is packed with super educational content, and the AI insights are genuinely next-level. It feels like having a personal nutritionist in your pocket!

One suggestion for future updates: adding a meal prep feature would make this app even more powerful. It could help users plan meals aligned with the app’s insights and recommendations, taking the experience to the next level.

Highly recommend this app to anyone looking to improve their health through better food choices!

Easy and informative

This app is super easy to use, you just take a pic of of your food and gives you feedback on your meals like symptoms it may cause. You can also track your mood and stool so overtime you’ll learn the effect that some foods have on your body. They also have all the studies and you are able to ready the articles for more information. Definitely recommend!
