CUSTOMER REVIEWS

“This app is an ABSOLUTE GODSEND and I cannot recommend it enough. It works amazingly, is so easy to use, scans things super quickly and allows you to put in so many different things (I’ve got allergies, intolerances, and OAS [yay me, right!])” -Karina C.

“Fig has changed my life. Being able to easily scan labels and quickly see if a product is safe for me to eat has been a game changer. I used to cry almost every time I went to the store. My eyesight is terrible, so reading labels is difficult. Now I can get in and out easily. Thank you!!” -Allegra K.

“I have never felt more liberated, supported, seen and represented by an app and its founders. I am better able to manage my allergies and food intolerances through Fig and it has made an immense impact in my everyday life.” -Rachel S.

“Food allergies had turned grocery shopping into a nightmare for me. I was having so much trouble finding foods that I could eat that I started having panic attacks. A friend told me about the Fig app & I immediately downloaded it. My life changed again, only this time for the better! Wow, not only was I able to find new foods to eat, but I also discovered many foods that I thought were okay-weren’t. My health improved. I’m so thankful for Fig. -Raella T.

"Finally, an app that understands the needs of families with dietary restrictions. The Multiple Figs feature is a game-changer for managing my kids' allergies. Thank you, Fig!" - Jason M.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-09-20, version 4.162.1*

This app has not only  helped me find packaged foods I can eat but has amazing recipes as well.

### 5/5 — Great For Diet Help!!

*2026-09-20, version 4.162.1*

This app has been so helpful with my change in diet. Cutting out things you can’t eat anymore for health reasons is already tough, but Fig makes it so much easier.

### 1/5 — Waste of time and money

*2026-09-19, version 4.162.1*

This app is not helpful or nor does it have a deep database. They want YOU to build the database for them.

### 5/5 — Great App, Great Customer Support

*2026-09-19, version 4.162.1*

I got this app because I was put on milk and soy restrictions when nursing with infant. This app helped me quickly identify foods that I couldn’t have which was a huge time saver when learning how to read labels.

I recently needed to contact customer service and they responded in less than 24 hours and were able to resolve my issue.

Highly recommend!

### 1/5 — Will charge you $69.99 even when canceled DO NOT GET THIS APP!!!!!

*2026-09-18, version 4.162.1*

I’m on the phone with my bank right now as a type this. My subscription was canceled on September 10th why they have tried to pull $69.99 out of my accounts 5 times since then!!! So much so that my banks fraud department contacted me on the 11th stating that they try to pull out another payment and the description of the charge say trial end! My bank assured me that it wouldn’t happen again considering they thought it was a glitch and then that’s why it probably is not going through! Flash forward now this morning September 18th they pulled the money out of my account and the payment description says the same thing trial end!  So now I’m disputing fraud charges because my subscription was canceled and the bank let me know that this is not the second or third time they tried to pull this from your account. It happened a total of five times so five times they have been in the background, trying to pull this money from my account! DON’T GET THIS APP GUYS. YOU GUYS JUST READ AND EDUCATE YOURSELF ON NUTRITIONAL VALUE. IT SEEMS LIKE A GOOD THING AT FIRST UNTIL YOU’RE TRYING TO CANCEL IT AND IT’S TRYING TO PULL THAT MUCH MONEY OUT OF YOUR ACCOUNT.

### 5/5 — Love it!!!

*2026-09-17, version 4.162.1*

Just recently got diagnosed with celiac disease and struggled to find good foods that fit within my diet. This app genuinely changed everything I feel safer at the grocery store the scanning makes it so much easier to shop!

### 5/5 — Life Changer

*2026-09-17, version 4.162.1*

I developed and allergy to certain foods and with this app I now can eat certain foods without second guessing myself. I absolutely love it and recommend it to everyone. You can even get recipes and find restaurants that accommodate your dietary needs.

### 3/5 — Ingredients displayed inaccurate

*2026-09-13, version 4.161.1*

I’ve noticed after scanning foods and double checking ingredients, the app actively displays ingredients that are not listed.

### 5/5 — Loving it

*2026-09-13, version 4.161.1*

It helps me to easier understand what I should be eating and the easily read and marked warnings help

### 5/5 — Exceptionally helpful

*2026-09-10, version 4.161.1*

Having dietary needs, means many struggles with trying to find out what’s safe to eat and where is safe to eat. But Fig makes it so much easier to read ingredient labels that I may not catch or words that I may not recognize but still may be bad for me.
