  • What’s happening?

    Started out loving the app, but as I kept entering items from my recent food inventory, it seemed to stop adding items. When I search for anything past a certain point all I get is a gray box. What’s happening? I do have a lot of items but I paid for premium!
  • Okay but needs improvement

    I spent a long time trying to choose the app I'd use to keep track of my food and avoid waste.

    Scanning was no problem. Curiously one pack of tomatoes always scans as if it's a car .... but otherwise, most items have been recognised.

    My problem is that I specifically wanted an app that would remind me when I have items soon to expire (a couple of days ahead and then again on the day) .... but I can't seem to find an option for push notifications on this App. Is that not a thing ? I've tried looking in all the settings page but ... nothing.

    Disappointed as I really like the interface in general, but my main need for the app isn't being fulfilled so I'll have to go elsewhere.

    Also I like that you can use the slider to say how much of something there is left, but it would be great if that was shown right on the front screen and not only when you click on the item.

  • Unfortunate

    I can unfortunately not recommend this app, it’s been buggy from the start. The biggest issue I’m having so far is that I paid and bought the pro version and then set up the reminders a day in advance, but haven’t received any yet. I’ve deleted and re downloaded the app many times to try and fix the issue but no luck. Not having reminders renders the app completely pointless. I’m paying to get reminded of the food that will expire soon !

    By the way, every time I’m re downloading the app I have to guess with logos how to change the language because it automatically sets it up as a foreign language that I don’t know about… very annoying.

  • Couldn’t install it

    Register screen wouldn’t fit on mobile phone screen. Couldn’t select ok to register.
  • No customer service

    Impossible to get ahold of anyone. Locked out of my account and PW reset doesn’t work, paid for the PRO feature and can’t use it. Have sent 3 emails and waited a month, still no response. I want the app to work and would gladly change my review if someone would reach out to help. Doubt another 1 star review will trigger a response from the team, but hoping it does!

  • Would be good if reliable

    I bought a subscription because I really liked the capability of the app. It worked well, although a little crashy, for about a week. Barcoding was sort of ok, but not great, but I didn't mind manually entering pantry items. Functionality is very good when it works. I was able to enter more than 1600 items into a variety of locations. Then all of a sudden it stopped letting me add items. The other functions still work. After about a week to trying to enter more items and unsuccessfully trying to contact the author for support, I gave up and exported my data to an apple numbers spread sheet that is working ok for me. I would have hung in longer if I received any response from the support email address. Too bad, it has the potential to be a great app.

  • Bugs

    A lot of bugs.

    Every food expires in 10 months even when I have set the custom expiry date.

    Does not use apples “Password” function to help sign in.
  • Why I love No Waste

    I love NoWaste because it gives me control of my food inventories at any time or place across all my devices. I can look at my inventory while at the store.
