Waste of money
I was encouraged to buy this app by celiac Canada. It’s not worth it! It has no scanner, you have to search individual ingredients and it’ll only tell you if a product is naturally gluten free. Ex. Beans and lentils, however, this is considered a high risk cross contact item. Avoid spending the money and get a free barcode scanner app

Not great
So the app seems to be just a list of ingredients that might have gluten. Maybe I should have read the description closer. I thought this would be a food database. Who cares if an ingredient has gluten or not? if the product is made in a factory where they process gluten, than the product is still unsafe. Knowing that the constituent parts of the product are gluten free is meaningless.

So low functioning
This app is definitely not worth the cost. Some of the information is too high level, there’s no description of what the yellow means, there’s no technical breakdown of many high category foods and the search function is really poor. I respect the effort but I would not recommend.
Génial
C’est une ressources très accessible qui permet de savoir si les ingrédients sont avec ou sans gluten et s’ils doivent être surveillés. Lorsque c’est à surveiller, ça explique pourquoi brièvement. Il y a même des images pour les ingrédients!
Ça vaut plus que le prix affiché!

Too basic, not practical
The app has basic search functionality for basic ingredients and very general things - it does not have the ability to filter your search or search results. It also does not allow you to search for products.
The user experience also forces me to press back to search again where as the search bar should be always present if that's the main functionality of the site.
As someone who has a gluten allergy I don't find this app helpful. I want to find out if my product has gluten in it - without having the results coming back and saying "sorry, no results."

Response from developer
We recently rebuilt the app with improvements that should address some of your concerns. Give the new version a new try!
