Adam

Extremely good and well thought out app. I like how personalised it is to your triggers and tolerables rather than being a general app which isn’t tailored to your gut. Has everything in 1 app which is great.

Great app

I’m newly diagnosed with IBS and am trying low FODMAP for the first time, I’m still in the elimination phase. After struggling for months, for the first time my symptoms have improved after only 5 days of tracking using the app to guide me. I like the barcode scan and meal scan features these are great, but as a person who cooks from scratch, often there are no barcodes on everything i am cooking. I’d like to be able to search for an item and see its FODMAP rating before deciding if i will eat it. The app would benefit from some form of community- somewhere to connect with others with the same symptoms, at the same stage of elimination or to recommend tasty low FODMAP items

Response from developer

Thanks so much for the review, and we’re really glad to hear you’re already seeing an improvement! You can actually search for foods directly in the Discovery page to check their FODMAP rating without needing a barcode. There’s also a dedicated Fruit & Veg section where you can browse FODMAP information and portion guidance. For the community side, our Recipes section is community-based, allowing you to discover recipes shared by others and share your own too. Thanks again for the feedback, and we hope IBS Pal continues to help you through your low FODMAP journey!

Need for partner

Paid for premium and my partner also had on his phone so he could check stuff for me but they’ve disabled access. Needs to be able to have more then one user especially with premium. Also discovery page is rubbish

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. Premium access is linked to the App Store/Google Play account that purchased the subscription, so it unfortunately can’t be shared across different store accounts or devices using another account. This is controlled by Apple/Google rather than something we can override. We’ve also made significant improvements to the Discovery page in version 1.34, including search speed and reliability, so please make sure you’re updated to the latest version. Thanks again for the feedback!

Good but not great

The app is great overall, very helpful for tracking. Since having it for just over a month, it’s now started to get really slow and laggy. The app is up to date, could be because of all the data logged on it.

Thanks for the feedback, and we’re glad you’ve found IBS Pal helpful overall! We’ve identified the cause of the performance issues and have improvements on the way that should make the app noticeably faster and smoother. The fix is planned for this weekend’s update. Thanks for flagging this and helping us continue improving IBS Pal!

Don’t waste your money

Not worth it, Been using it consistently for 18 days and still no insights or triggers accurately identified. It asks for your tolerables but then when you add it to your journal it forgets this 90% of the time. The AI analysis is consistently not right. Then when scanning a meal and changing it gluten free bread it often forgets this entirely when you log it to a meal.

Helpful for product scans but that’s about it.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear IBS Pal hasn't met your expectations. Some of the issues you mentioned, including tolerables not always being respected and edited meal scans not always saving correctly, were genuine bugs that have since been addressed. We're also continuously improving our AI insights and trigger detection. While AI is a rapidly evolving technology, it isn't perfect, and we're committed to refining its accuracy with every update. If you're willing to contact us at support@ibspal.com, we'd be happy to investigate your account further and help ensure you're getting the best possible experience.
