Annoying notifications
I really love the concept of this app, however there’s no way to choose what type of notifications it sends, and while I opted in to receive recall alerts and product scores for items I scanned, it also sends me notifications like “keep your streak alive” trying to get me to open the app and use it actively… which makes me want to do the opposite. I cancelled my subscription trial and I’m this close to deleting the app altogether and looking for something else that offers similar purpose. The interface is cute, but I’m not interested in gamifying product recalls. I want to be able to use it for its stated purpose without being bombarded by useless notifications all day!!

NOT FREE ‼️‼️
I found this app through threads where they are very active in informing about food safety and promoting their app. I was excited to find an app that actually cared about what we eat and a way to help us prevent eating things that are recalled or bad.
While going through the process of signing up I was even more thrilled because I was able to put in my specific food limits and allergies and what warnings I wanted to know about food. It then had me put my email in and confirm it… but that’s when it hits you with the paywall.
You can’t even enter the app unless you pay for the subscription. This company is as money hungry as the rest of the companies, don’t waste your time. And to the people who made this app, don’t claim you care about food safety if you don’t make it accessible for everyone. Majority of people with food insecurity’s and the ones that NEED an app like this are the very ones you’re excluding by making it a subscription. It’s disgusting to be honest.

The best food safety app
Been using mana for a couple months and absolutely love it, really great functionality being able to track everything and love how they make it interactive with the mana character/world.
Sigh
You can't use the app AT ALL unless you pay for a subscription. There is no free option. It doesn't tell you this until AFTER you put in your email, name, and other information about you. Everyone just wants money. There are other free apps and resources to get notified about recalls and other information. Putting this kind of information behind a pay wall is so exploitative.

Must pay to use
There’s no free aspects of this app. This should be clear before downloading and giving you my email address. Good thing I’m in California and can control my data. Can’t wait to waste their time with data requests like they wasted my time downloading and creating an app. I’m not interested in being forced to do a “3 day free trial” just to see any functionality of the app.

Newbie
I’m just getting started here! Overheard some chatter about this site… so checking it out! Love the cute little baby Mana! And the relaxing music so far… I’ve been using Yuka app to scan products when grocery shopping… but I hear this is a different and fun experience. So let’s go!…
Highly recommend
The restaurant health ratings are awesome. Also love the scanning, was pretty surprised to see the warnings on things I eat regularly. Super helpful way to be clean, love my mana man
Dope
This is surprising one of the most helpful apps I’ve used all year.. I might now ever buy anything without scanning first
REVOLUTIONARY
This app will change the world. From recall alerts, to easily accessible safety ratings for restaurants, to comprehensive scanning for every product I could ever dream of — I feel a sense of protection from Mana. In a world where no one is looking out for anyone but the big companies at play, this one feels like armor for the little guy. I feel safe with Mana. I feel like I can finally trust what I consume again with Mana as my shield and weapon. I no longer need to spend hours doing my own due diligence on the items I plan to consume because Mana’s got my back in a flash! Thank you Mana!!!

Really impressed with Mana!
Downloaded this out of curiosity and ended up loving it. Super easy to use and gives helpful information on products I use every day. Definitely worth checking out.
Incredibly useful information and so engaging!
The absolute best health app out there! If you want to know what you’re putting into your body and build good health habits, nothing comes close. The depth of information here is unmatched by any app and you cannot find this level of detail anywhere else. It’s super easy to use - you just scan a product and Mana gives you a detailed breakdown within seconds. It’s actually fun and is the first wellness app that genuinely keeps me motivated. Highly recommend!

About time!!
This app is honestly a game changer for anyone trying to make healthier choices. Being able to quickly scan grocery items and instantly see ingredients, allergens, and health insights makes shopping so much easier and more transparent. I also love that you can search restaurants and see health-focused reviews and ratings in one place. Super useful, thoughtfully built, and something I can see helping a lot of people live more intentionally. I love the cutie mascot!!!

The Mana App is top tier
Absolutely love this Mana! It’s amazing how Mana allows me to scan every food product I come across in the grocery store, gas station, or anywhere! It’s incredibly user friendly and breaks down each ingredient in the food product, clearly displaying ingredients and providing ample evidence for why they are harmful or beneficial to your health. The mana score is created for each product that shows a clear overall score of how healthy or unhealthy the food product is for my individual health, another incredible feature allowing each indivisible to input there individual allergens, food sensitivities, and diets, allows each user to simply scan a product and see what it is and how it pairs with or effects there particular diet. The tomagachi and different worlds are craftily created to create a genuinely fun experience that also allows me to track my intake of different foods and their impact on my health. Overall love the mana app!

Better than the other product scanners out there
Wellness is super important to me, and not only does this app support health tracking on food items it supports everyday items like clothes and cosmetics all in one app which is really nice. Love the pantry feature for keeping track of things I already scanned. Not to mention it gives really good insight on restaurants too! Really well rounded app.

Amazing tool for a better life!
Love this app! Had such an amzing experience scanning and getting the best feedback about what’s gets inside my body. Definitely game changer!!!
Super cool
This is so cool, I now have more transparent info on what I am actively consuming and get a real idea of how it affects me. I’m pre diabetic and am trying to be more health conscious, this is definitely helping with that.
Game changer
I feel like I spend way too much time researching random products to try and figure out how healthy/unhealthy they actually are. But Mana has made it so I no longer have to rely on whatever sketchy info happens to pop up on Google. Points for the cute little animated guy too, reminds me of those tamagotchis I used to love as a kid 😊

I love this app!!!
I’ve been using this app to scan products to better understand what I am consuming so I can make better dietary decisions and it has been EYE OPENING. I’ve tried other apps but this one is by far the most comprehensive and FUN! It’s almost as if it has gamified my eating habits and the little characters and worlds are entertaining and cute. I pretty much scan every product I see now just to see what it says about them and to see my character in the app change from my scans.
