### 2/5 — Quantity Tracking is Missing

*2026-07-19*

Bar code scanning is hit or miss (mostly miss from my brief testing) which I could live with, but not being able to track the quantity is a deal breaker. Only one in the list doesn’t make sense.

### 1/5 — Câmera não funciona

*2026-02-18*

Câmera não funciona no App. Mesmo dando permissão ele não consegue acessar a câmera, deixando o App inútil e quebrando sua principal qualidade!

### 5/5 — Best food tracker

*2026-02-15*

If you want to stop wasting food by missing expiry dates, Best Before is the app for you. Easy to use and for the price it’s a bargain.

### 1/5 — Stürzt ab!

*2025-07-15*

Stürzt ständig ab und man bekommt die Daten nicht wieder, da keine Anmeldung erforderlich ist. Wäre sonst eine prima App gewesen

### 1/5 — A waste of time and money, stopped working

*2024-09-30*

After putting lot of products in it, it stopped working. The worst app ever. Waste of time and money.

### 2/5 — Good idea, poor execution

*2021-10-11*

Very basic app, great concept, but not being able to add anything without a barcode was the deal breaker for me. So much for tracking leftovers, produce, or anything not manufactured.

It would also be nice to be able to distinguish between items in the fridge vs freezer.

### 1/5 — Not the same as the android app

*2021-08-03*

The name and description are word for word the Android app, but this is not the same app. Sadly, no syncing.

**Developer response:** We do not develop Android apps and our description probably got stolen. There is no reason to leave a 1 star review if you compare apples to pears

### 4/5 — It’s good but still needs some work!

*2021-07-09*

The app is good in theory but in practice…needs work! Could be a strong app and more popular with a shift in who you’re wanting as clients.I will help give feedback on specifics if you need, you can do it!! It’s a great idea overall.
