### 3/5 — No beans.

*2024-03-05*

Good app but it’s missing a lot of beans. Kidney, pinto, etc.

### 1/5 — Appli pratique mais pas du tout stable

*2021-12-30*

Appli très intéressante mais se ferme toute seule au bout de 5 secondes sur iPhone 8 et iOS 15

### 4/5 — C’est dommage 😭

*2021-12-03*

C’est dommage qu’on ne puisse pas créer ses fiches produits 😭
J’aurais aimer pouvoir ajouter mes produits comme le fromage de chèvre ou autre😪

### 5/5 — Patsy

*2021-11-22, version 2.19*

This is such an amazing app loving all the easy to click info. Very useful.

### 1/5 — Partagée

*2021-10-03*

L’application est super, j’ai donc décidé de prendre la version payante… et là surprise, rien de plus… y a t’il vraiment une différence entre la version gratuite et la version payante???
Du coup, déçue d’avoir payé 1,99€

**Developer response:** Bonjour, la version payante permet d'accéder à des catégories d'aliments qui ne sont pas disponibles gratuitement. Cela supprime également le bandeau publicitaire. Pourriez-vous s'il vous plait reconsidérer votre note de 1 étoile. Merci 🙏

### 5/5 — Everything you could want to know about food

*2021-10-01*

Everett
Thank

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for your feedback

### 4/5 — Pratique

*2021-03-31*

5 étoiles auraient été positionnées si le PH de chaque aliment était pris en en compte. En effet aujourd’hui on reconnaît de plus en plus l’importance des régimes acido basique et très peu d’applications fournissent cette information... peut être dans la prochaine version 😊

### 5/5 — Trop bien

*2021-02-26*

Trop bien

### 5/5 — Great information about nutritious

*2020-08-25*

It’s really awesome app, I can found any food, what my body need and also advise others and helpful for my blog.

### 3/5 — Can’t click the vitamins and minerals

*2020-03-18*

It would be nice to click the vitamins and minerals when you look at food benefits. I want click from Milk and click beta carotene to know what beta carotene is and how it is good for me. All it says is antioxidant and that’s it. It should say what antioxidants do like fight free radicals and contribute to healthy skin and anti aging benefits.
