Excellent for FODMAP beginners

I needed help started and sticking to the low FODMAP diet and didn’t really know what I could eat. This app actually made it enjoyable and I’ve been looking forward to cooking the low FODMAP meals. Really made a difference to my life.

A really helpful app!

So easy to use and so much help and guidance for IBS sufferers. I actually look forward to using it each day and tracking my symptoms

caution: this app requires you follow their plan

i thought this was more freeform but it is very guided (maybe to a fault). you cant record any meal unless its one of their recipes - its preset to skip lunch because you should eat leftovers (every single day??)

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback Penny! The low FODMAP diet is a short term intervention and most people find they do best by following our complete fodmap diet plan. We know it's not for everyone, but the best results come from being guided through the plan for the short period until you've identified your personal triggers and can get back to normal life. We do our best to make it delicious and enjoyable! Hope that helps!

Eureka - It works!

Makes the low fodmap diet a piece of cake (a tasty one)! Heartily recommend this app! Try it

IBSCoach app helped!

This is an excellent app if you are new to the low FODMAP diet! Loved the structure and steps - i followed the diet and cooked from the large library of low fodmap meals (which are excellent) and my symptoms started to disappear. Can’t say thank you enough to the app makers!

Great app!

I’ve been using the app for a week and it’s always been so helpful! The recipes are easy and delicious, and I’ve already learned a lot about IBS triggers and how to avoid them.

Excellent app

Noticed a huge difference when using this app! Definitely recommend!

Response from developer

That's exactly what our team love to hear! Thanks for letting use know you've noticed a huge difference since starting the low FODMAP diet with us. You've made our day!

Great for beginners

Made it easy for me to follow the low fodmap diet. Recently told I have IBS and told to follow a low fodmap diet. This app is everything I need. Makes eating delicious food easy again without triggering symptoms. Lots of good information, and a handy symptom tracker. Highly recọmmended

Great App!

App is very informative and has all the info I need for IBS in one place.

Support staff is super helpful!

Good

I’ve only just started. So only cooked two meals but both were excellent. I’m looking forward to the next

Great recipes and help

This really helped knowing the foods and recipes to help me on my journey with Ibs. Little expensive but if your really struggling with Ibs it’s a great help.

Limahl was really helpful when I had to sort my account out and the emails were useful.

Great support

I was looking for something to help me navigate the IBS nightmare and found this via the only NHS support I got which was on their website! It has loads of articles and guided support coupled with recipe suggestions which are badly needed, especially in phase 1 elimination. The symptom tracker is good and has space to add notes. There’s a good variety of recipes so you aren’t stuck with variations of chicken salad!

IBS Coach for week planning

A good choice of easy low fodmap recipes for the whole week. Each meal can be switched to another one depending on taste. A weekly shopping list is automatically generated, which is very handy. I just have to try the recipes now.

No help for vegans

Only AFTER they get my email address and I go through their little quiz do they tell me they “don’t care for vegans” and I should “come back later”.

You should flag right upfront you don’t cater for vegans as you’ve got my data for nothing and wasted my time.

Subscription

I have subscribed but app is not showing any recipes and logging symptoms is hilighted all the time for same day when logging information also shopping list not working don’t understand why this app is not working ? Information great i just need it to work for me

Response from developer

Mrs B60, We would love to help figure this out. Can you send me an email at support@ibscoach.org and I'll investigate what has happened! Speak soon

Great app

I used the free trial before subscribing and found it really helpful. The recipes and food directory as well as info was great. I felt a lot better using it and learned a lot after a long time not really getting anywhere. Thank you.

Excellent and it works

Finally having some relief from IBS-C symptoms with this app 😊

I JUST WANT A QUCK WAY TO SEE WHAT I CAN EAT

I don’t need some app asking me 20 questions about my bowel movements I just want to know if I can buy arugula when I’m at the grocery store!!!!! If you need an AI to mange your symptoms, you actually don’t and are being taken advantage of by grifters, none of this stuff works

Response from developer

Hi GigiD47, the low fodmap plan guides you through the complete low fodmap diet - from elimination stage, to reintroduction (where you test your intolerance to specific foods). If you 'only' want a list of low fodmap foods you can find one online, but it won't be much help to you as you need to test your specific intolerances for long term IBS management.

Cost per month

I would love to enjoy this app but not everyone can afford £19.99 a month but when I saw it used to be £139.99 for a month . I immediately regretted signing up for it and wish the app thought of people that are struggling with money . I am not happy with this . I was really exited for this app but now I can’t use it cause the price is stupid money!

A great app for coaching to eat and live with IBS symptoms

My doctor “thought” I have IBS and suggested I try the low FODMAP diet. I did some research but it’s hard to keep on top of what you can and can’t eat, and in which quantity. IBS coach puts together a meal plan of low FODMAP elimination phase meals, with a shopping list, and they are delicious and easy to prep. My family didn’t notice we’re eating low FODMAP and I’m already feeling better. Each day you get to learn more - bite size - about how to live with IBS and it’s fascinating. I really recommend it!

A few improvements proposals:
- it would be great to be able to add the food we eat alongside the meal plan (chosen from the green foods of course) ie. A pre run snack
- when symptoms disappear quicker than 4 weeks, it would be great to be able to move to reintroduction phase faster

Thank you IBS team!
