The one thing I have absolutely no clue about is what is and isn’t safe to eat while pregnant. I thought I would have to find a book somewhere and carry it around with me but this handy app has made food decisions quick and easy! ### 3/5 — Download but keep as back up *2017-06-20, version 1.3* He has a lot of fast food on this app, but not simple things like eggs and the cheeses that are good or even bad. It's a great idea and an app like this needs to be out there. But definitely need some work and fine tuning. ### 4/5 — So far so good *2017-02-22, version 1.3* Great app to make BETTER eating decisions!! Hopefully the data base will keep growing! ### 4/5 — Very Useful App! *2016-07-19, version 1.3* I just found out I am pregnant for the first time yesterday! I am so happy I found this app because I had only a little knowledge of dos and dont's when it came to wait I can eat. Now whenever I want to go grab a snack or go to the grocery store, I can consult this app and feel better about the decisions I'm making. ### 4/5 — Useful with some minor mods *2016-04-25, version 1.3* Would be great to have a back button on search - sometimes you just want to go back to the list of items you looked up instead of the entire list again. Pretty comprehensive but very American focused so hard to look up food outside the US. But at least you have a wide variety of food. Not a lot of other apps like it. Very useful during pregnancy when you just need to quickly check if certain foods should be avoided. ### 4/5 — Thanks! *2015-12-06, version 1.3* This is exactly what I've been looking for. It does crash a lot when using the search feature, though. ### 4/5 — Almost perfect *2015-11-01, version 1.3* This app has been very helpful. I don't give it 5 stars because it needs to improve the way to find foods. ### 5/5 — Really great! *2015-11-01, version 1.3* This is a great tool to have when shopping, out to dinner or at friends houses. ### 4/5 — Helpful app *2015-08-17, version 1.3* I really appreciate this app as there is not anything else like it! I agree with another review that the search feature could be improved as it can be tricky to find some things. But overall I really like it. ### 5/5 — Useful *2015-07-31, version 1.3* Very useful app to help figure out foods that are safe. Easy to use and all in one convenient place. ### 5/5 — Very useful information *2015-07-26, version 1.3* This app has just about every food item you could think of. A couple glitches but not bad. ### 4/5 — Helpful app, needs some tweaks *2015-07-19, version 1.3* Very helpful app! There are few modifications needed for ease of use- allow searching for any word, not just first word in title. For example, when searching 'mahi' it says "no results" because it is listed under "fish, mahi mahi". Thankful an app like this exists though! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — A lot of misinformation on this app *2020-01-10, version 2.0.1* I was really excited about downloading this app. Upon examining some of the choices, I noticed that it gives a lot of misinformation about pregnancy eating. Most of the foods that are labeled “ safe” contain nitrites and nitrates that should not be consumed during pregnancy as it poses health risks to the fetus. Please update this information with fact based knowledge about pregnancy and healthy eating... very disappointing. ### 1/5 — Barcode not working. *2019-01-23, version 1.3* The barcode scanner just shows a black screen. ### 1/5 — The scan is not working *2019-01-04, version 1.3* The scan is not working, can’t connect with the camera :( ### 1/5 — Says Raw Fish is Safe *2016-09-10, version 1.3* As soon as I saw that several raw fish varieties say they are safe to eat, I stopped trusting this app altogether. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2016-02-18, version 1.3* Don't waste your time. Really time consuming to use to get any helpful info. ### 1/5 — Stupid *2016-01-14, version 1.3* Needs a update. hard to look thru to find a food. Example ham. When did Keebler sell ham? Thought they only made cookies but anyway if you search ham Keebler comes up. Ok?why? ### 1/5 — Information seems misleading *2015-07-12, version 1.3* I just got this app and and scrolling through all the foods listed. whilst it contains a very comprehensive list of foods (including many brand names), much of the info is downright wrong. for instance, Roquefort cheese is listed as safe to eat. this is totally wrong. there's also no warning given with mayo that pregnant women should avoid any mayo containing raw eggs. given these, plus other omissions I won't bother to list, I'm now seriously doubting the integrity of the app. I would not rely on this app as a safety food guide whilst pregnant. also, it only lists American brands (surprise surprise) so anyone in UK, Australia etc misses out. will be deleting the app and relying on my own common sense. I urge any pregnant ladies to seriously be wary of the info contained in this app. ### 1/5 — Horrifyingly misleading !!!!! Pregnant women beware! *2015-02-10, version 1.2.1* This is NOT A TRUSTWORTHY APP!!! Under no circumstances should a pregnant woman ever eat raw fish of any sort, raw beef, raw chicken, raw cookie dough that could contain raw eggs!! All these things in this app it says is safe to eat ! These most likely will cause health issues in the mother and birth defects and problems with the pregnancy! From one pregnant mom to all others (researching fathers as well), DO NOT TRUST THIS APP! IT IS DANGEROUSLY MISLEADING !! ### 1/5 — Be wary! Info not correct! *2014-09-11, version 1.2.1* There are a few pregnancy basics that this app had wrong so I deleted it immediately! Listeria can give on lunch meat and this app says turkey sandwiches and ham sandwiches are fine. Most physicians advise all pregnant women to avoid all lunch meat! Do not trust this app!!! ### 2/5 — Not a fan *2017-02-21, version 1.3* I don't like how it's just one big list of things. Maybe the option of seeing the app through categories would be more helpful ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Pregnancy app *2023-10-27, version 2.0.1* I love this app and that it is free to mamma La who are expecting. I was so unsure of what to eat and I haven’t been to my OBGYN yet cause I’m only 6 weeks but this app has helped me find peace of mind to know I’m eating what’s right for my growing baby. ### 5/5 — Finally found what I was looking for! *2017-08-22, version 1.3* Being 35, we're definitely worried about what I can and can't have. This app includes major brands and restaurants, as well. It's our first, so having this take out so much of the guesswork (which definitely felt a bit overwhelming researching on our own) is such an awesome thing to stumble across! I will definitely recommend it far and wide! ### 5/5 — My to go to list *2017-07-07, version 1.3* I'm on my 3rd pregnancy and definitely love that I can check what I can or not have, just as a piece of mind. I wish I would've known about this app sooner. Definitely great to have. ### 5/5 — Great app *2017-03-19, version 1.3* This has been my go-to app for what foods to buy for my wife in her first trimester. ### 5/5 — Really useful app *2017-01-24, version 1.3* I use this app all the time!! It could use some tweaks regarding the ease of searching for certain foods but all in all it's a great database and a must have. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2016-09-27, version 1.3* I downloaded this app based on a recommendation from a friend, and I've found it very helpful so far! ### 5/5 — Helpful *2016-09-09, version 1.3* Very useful I have a baby on the way and it helps me decide what to eat. It's pretty awesome. ### 5/5 — Great *2016-04-14, version 1.3* Thank you It's helping me a lot ### 5/5 — Awesome *2016-02-13, version 1.3* Thank you! ### 5/5 — Free and easy *2015-12-08, version 1.3* This is exactly what I was looking for and it's free! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
