### 3/5 — Somewhat okay cards

*2023-07-12, version 3.2.0*

I was really hoping to use these cards but other than celiac disease I also have an egg allergy and issues with nightshades (which includes white potatoes).

I really appreciate the efforts for translating wheat and gluten issues into other languages for safe traveling.

However, I hope these cards can be amended. Hopefully the portion that says ‘foods I can eat’ can be updated to only ‘what grains I can eat’.

These cards would also be an issue for those that are lactose intolerant or vegan.

### 4/5 — No soy sauce

*2022-07-23, version 3.2.0*

I like the idea of this app, especially with travel, but if I were to show this to someone Asian, they wouldn’t realize that I can’t have soy sauce. I’d give it 5 stars if it mentioned soy sauce.

### 3/5 — No soy sauce

*2017-10-19, version 3.1*

Great idea, but it doesn't mention soy sauce, so that limits its usefulness for Asian travel and restaurants.

### 3/5 — Every Little Bit Helps!

*2016-04-23, version 3.1*

This is a great little app, that helps when visiting a restaurant.  However, I would love to be able to message or email the card to the restaurant whenever I have to telephone order a take-out meal.  Being unable to get out to restaurants now, this would be helpful.  But a big “Thank You” for helping us Celiacs communicate our situation to others, who don’t understand.

### 4/5 — Could be very useful

*2013-10-16, version 3.0*

This could be very useful as I travel at lot. I'm a vegetarian so I would like the option to remove the meat and fish statement if possible please

### 3/5 — Helpful

*2012-04-30, version 1.5*

But could you please get a card for Vietnamese restaurants.

### 3/5 — Really Handy

*2012-01-22, version 1.5*

I've found this helpful when eating out, 
some of the card are a little fuzzy, making them hard to read.

### 3/5 — What about printing?

*2011-03-06, version 1.5*

I thought you could print this.I mean I don't want to have to take my iPod everywere.

### 4/5 — Good idea

*2011-01-19, version 1.5*

Really good idea, but it's a bit long. Also no Samoan which would be helpful

### 3/5 — Pretty good

*2010-11-21, version 1.5*

I wish we had had this for our trip to Japan, although looking at the Japanese card, I would have been surprised if someone could have read it. This could be a very helpful app if the resolution was better - for an iPhone 4, it's not great - I can't imagine it in an even lower resolution.

### 4/5 — Useful

*2010-10-25, version 0*

This is a good and useful application, text a bit more clear in the next update please...

### 3/5 — Other Allergies

*2009-07-14, version 0*

It is not uncommon for people with Celiac Disease to also have an intolerance for dairy products also. I have MANY food allergies in addition to Celiac disease so the portion about what I can eat is a bit dangerous for me.I will use the top portion though. It is at least somewhere to start!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not detailed enough at all

*2022-12-14, version 3.2.0*

These have the ability to be amazing BUT they aren’t enough to keep us safe. And the language barrier issue means we can’t add more information to build on it. I prefer the equal eats app. More detailed. Also free and not limited to just celiac so it may be good to have for a diverse eating population.

### 1/5 — A blurred vision of greatness.

*2012-11-02, version 1.5*

This is a much needed app for international travelers who need to avoid gluten. Sadly, it is hardly usable because the scanned translations are so blurry that the tiny text cannot be easily read. The fix: re scan the cards at  higher resolution or, better yet, make use of iOS native support of most international writing systems.

### 1/5 — J'ai loupe quelque chose...?

*2011-11-24*

Je ne comprend pas, mis à part un texte mal traduit pour dire que la personne aillant créé l'appli est malade il n'y a rien d'autre...??

### 2/5 — Helpful ???

*2017-09-13, version 3.1*

The first time I showed this card to a server in Spain, they gave me back the card, shrugged their shoulders and walked away.  The card is too "in your face" - the comment "I may therefore become very ill if I eat food containing flours...." is too strong, it scared the uninformed.  I wol dlike a gentler but informative card!

### 2/5 — Good idea - needs work

*2013-05-31, version 1.5*

A great and useful idea, however a few of the cards are too fuzzy to be of much use.
Please consider an updated version of this app to include among others, a readable Japanese card.

### 2/5 — Great info, poor resolution

*2013-04-16, version 1.5*

My wife has celiac disease and we have found this app to be great when we are traveling or at a place where the staff speaks limited English. HOWEVER, some of the translated images have such poor resolution, that no one can read then, including Japanese and Urdu.  Can you please update this?

### 2/5 — Thai

*2012-12-19, version 1.5*

Sadly the Thai is too fuzzy to read and Vietnamese is absent. Otherwise a great concept, it's just that Thai and Vietnamese are my two favorite take aways.

### 2/5 — Somewhat useful but not the Japanese

*2012-06-01, version 1.5*

Not bad. Good idea and can be quite useful but font is too small in Japanese for anyone to read. Would be better if you can enlarge to make it readable.

### 2/5 — Good app, needs vegetarian option

*2009-09-25, version 0*

Needs a vegetarian and/or vegan setting.

### 2/5 — I lol'd

*2009-07-03, version 0*

this is great for when i feel like i don't ever want to talk to anyone

### 5/5 — Amazing. Has saved me many a times

*2017-06-21, version 3.1*

As a Coeliac this has been beyond useful when travelling to non English speaking countries. I have just come back from Argentina & Peru and I never got sick once! I would show it to the waiter in their preferred language (works offline) and they immediately understood my requirements. Thank you

### 5/5 — Very very useful

*2014-04-04, version 3.0*

Very worth it. This app saved me several times in japan. Highly reccomended

### 5/5 — Amazing app !!!

*2012-09-02, version 1.5*

This app has kept me from getting sick in so many different countries I love it and highly recommend it to any one with C.D. That travels!

### 5/5 — Really helpful

*2012-08-12, version 1.5*

This app was really helpful whilst in Bali, especially since I had just been diagnosed.

### 5/5 — great app!

*2010-11-07, version 0*

very useful app! thank you!!

### 5/5 — An excellent app for travelling abroad!

*2010-09-04, version 0*

This is a simple but really effective app for foreign travel. As a Coeliac person, trying to get through to restaurantants or food outlets in different countries that gluten isn't just about wheat can be really hard and this little tool is just brilliant. Worked like a dream on my recent holiday in Egypt! Thank you!

### 5/5 — Perfect for travelling

*2009-11-07, version 0*

I used the recently in China and it really worked. The resolution is a little to low but still worth it. Thank You!

### 5/5 — Works

*2009-07-19, version 0*

This is exactly what it says it is. An explanation of what celiac is and what the server needs to look for to keep the customer safe. 
Not really needed in your hometown unless you are too lazy to explain celiac restrictions to your server in your own words.  Great for travel especially if you don't speak the language but need to convey restrictions.

### 5/5 — Thank you! :)

*2009-02-06, version 0*

Oh my gosh this app is going to be so useful when my family and I travel out of the country again!  I travel a lot and I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and I wondered how I'd be able to handle my food situation in foreign speaking countries but this is going to be so helpful!  Thank youuuuuu! :)

### 5/5 — Fantastic!!!

*2009-01-18, version 0*

I paid over $100 for the hardcopy laminated GF cards online. They didn't have near the selection, and the chef or waitress kept throwing them away, thinking they were disposable. This is a fantastic app!!!! Thank you!!!
