## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — not useful

*2015-05-29*

This app does not show vitamins, minerals or any other detailed important information.

### 1/5 — Diane

*2014-03-26*

Do not waste your money!!!

### 1/5 — A search function is needed!

*2009-10-12*

Essentially, it's just a big list without any sort of search function. Takes a while to find what you want. I regret paying money for this.

### 2/5 — Just a database

*2014-09-05*

I hoped that the app recorded calorie intake, but it is just a database of nutrients. Overpriced!!!! I wish i could get a refund.

### 2/5 — Not worth the cost...

*2011-07-26*

I don't use this app because the foods are presented in an endless list and there is no search feature. I would LOVE this app if there was a search feature, if brand names were included AND if the ingredients list was included. I am a celiac and I can't find out from this app if the food contains gluten.  Definitely not worth four bucks.

### 3/5 — Potassium not listed for all foods

*2022-01-16*

Potassium is not listed for all foods. This app is not useful for a person following a diet for medical reasons (e.g. Renal friendly).

### 3/5 — Très très bien...   Mais!

*2011-05-04*

Enfin une liste de la composition des aliments et leur teneur en micro nutriments assez complète... dans la poche. Il y a longtemps que j'attendais ça merci! Par contre à l'usage c'est moins bien suite aux traductions Françaises... Traduction avec les pieds, le bœuf se trouve sous la rubrique : "produits de bœuf" qui doit découler de beef products de même pour le poids  des produits pour 100 grammes ce serait trop simple! Donc j'en conclus que c'est la traduction de cup ! Si je ne regrette pas c'est pour une raison simple pour l'iPhone... C'est la seule applis aussi complète. Alors ça me dépanne de l'avoir dans la poche mais pourrais mieux faire!

### 3/5 — Besoin d'un outil de recherche

*2009-09-12*

Interessant mais il a besoin d'un outil de recherche a l'interieur des sections, sinon on trouve rien.

### 4/5 — Needs a "My Foods" section...

*2010-01-06*

that you can add to. That way you can find the food you eat quickly.  That would make this app perfect.

### 5/5 — Brilliant app if you have health issues

*2020-01-11*

I have Stage 4 Kidney Disease and need to control Potassium in my diet, while maintaining a high fibre input. I came across this App from a link in a BC Renal Agency website. The App is comprehensive and gives masses of detail. It has really helped me select appropriate foods.

### 5/5 — More straightforward that any USA apps

*2019-02-13*

so far This appears to be what I’ve been looking for: objective straightforward the facts that are easily accessible. The USDA references are so much more limited, and seem to promote processed foods. sometimes I just want to compare 85 g of raw beets to 85 g of cooked beets. This looks like the app for me. I have found Canadian publicly funded health related references to be more evidence based.

### 5/5 — Useful!

*2012-12-30*

I'm in the USA but this is useful. Doesn't crash. Bookmarks is very nice. 

The search could surely work better. If I try two keywords such as skim milk hardly nothing comes up.  Search alone for milk and the list is exhaustive. 

Thanks!

### 5/5 — Full Database with Options

*2011-03-06*

I have been looking for an iPhone version of Nutritional Values of all foods. This program has a huge database, you can change the serving size, and it includes many name brand items. It has several levels of displayed information. You can get very detailed and lengthy lists of every known and measured vitamins and minerals.

### 5/5 — EXCELLENT

*2010-05-22*

On ne peut pas faire mieux ! Très complet.

### 5/5 — No-NonSense Nutrition Info

*2010-05-08*

For people that need dietary info this program is a good deal.  I need to be on a low-protein diet and this program has the info I need to select foods and make better food choices.

### 5/5 — Finally, a Canadian Nutrition App

*2009-11-15*

Excellent app. I have been frustrate with always having to use the US nutrition facts because they always go by volume not weight. Now, it would be great to have an App like "Lose It" that uses the Canadian Nutrients File.

### 5/5 — Enfin!

*2009-08-26*

Wow! Voici une banque de données nutritionnelles en FRANÇAIS que je suggère à tous ceux et celles qui on un intérêt personnel ou professionnel pour la valeur nutritive des aliments. Je l'utilise personnellement pour calculer ce que j'ingurgite dans le cadre d'un programme de compétition de Fitness et ça ma permis d'obtenir facilement rapidement des infos que je devais chercher sur le net avant.
