My doctor recommended downloading and following the guidelines for low fodmap food.  This has been especially good when I am out.

### 5/5 — Simple yet efficient

*2024-10-16, version 1.2.5*

Fodmate app is fantastic! It's incredibly informative and easy to navigate. The interface is user-friendly, making it simple to find what foods are low or high in FODMAPs. I love how it provides clear explanations and helpful tips for managing my diet. It’s definitely made following the FODMAP plan much easier! Highly recommend!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Fruit

*2025-10-07, version 1.6.0*

Cactus not included in your FODMAP

### 2/5 — Inconsistent with other information

*2026-06-10, version 1.7.3*

Has inconsistent ratings compared with other guides e.g. capsicum and tomato. 
This coupled with the AI images makes it seem untrustworthy

### 2/5 — AI generated images

*2026-02-11, version 1.6.0*

The use of AI generated images (of food/drink items that I’m sure have many stock images available to use) completely turned me off this app. It makes me wonder what else the developers have used AI for with the creation of this app, like their information? 

There’s also no distinction in what specific category an item is high/low in, ie. lactose. So not very useful if you want to know specific triggers. 

2 stars though because it does have the potential to be a good app. I like how easy it is to filter for different types of items (fruit, dairy, etc) and also for high/low.

### 2/5 — Good for basics only

*2024-11-23, version 1.3.0*

FodMate offers a wide range of foods, the ability to note specific trigger foods, and portion sizes for ‘safe’ levels of FODMAPs in general. However, a major downside is that all FODMAPs are lumped together. If you’re only triggered by GOS and lactose, for example, this app would have you avoiding many more foods than necessary. This makes the app unusable for me, unfortunately.

### 3/5 — AI generated, not comprehensive

*2025-03-11, version 1.4.2*

The images are all AI generated and this has less variety of entries than some other apps.

### 4/5 — Good as far as it goes

*2025-08-07*

List of foods is not comprehensive. Portion sizes such as "normal serving size" are vague. A "packet" size could be different for different foods, or different brands. If the app includes your food the color pictures are a quick way to find them. But categories of food types were sometimes confusing.

### 5/5 — Tops

*2026-06-27*

Informative, concise, and easy to use.

### 5/5 — Food intolerances

*2026-06-03, version 1.7.3*

Very helpful and easy to see and edit.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-06-01, version 1.7.2*

Very easy to use, doesn’t contain every food available to my area of the world but has the basics which is great!

### 5/5 — Life Saving

*2026-05-25*

Information is clear and easy to find.

## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated)

Formal food for IBS as been great for me as struggled for long time now but I know what’s edible now and what causes pain

### 5/5 — Love it

Love it a lot

### 5/5 — Game changer!

*2025-12-15*

Fabulous! Through my own research I stumbled upon “lowFODMAP foods turning into highFODMAP foods ” after ingestion—-I had never heard this before! I’ve been diagnosed with 3 IBDs, already follow a lowFODMAP diet and I am happy my research lead me to this App. It is a practical way to help me plan food shopping, meal planning, cooking.  Fantastic app!

### 5/5 — Ease of use

I really appreciate how easy this app is to use. The simple information I need.

### 5/5 — Very useful app!
