Really useful

App is great. Really helpful. Although I read the labels I have been known to miss allergens due to the fact they are not in bold, which has resulted in wasted food. The updates to ingredients/allergy lists in foods in your pantry is also really helpful as well as the recall updates.

The software producer is also great at responding to messages and adding in any extra allergens you may suggest.

I love the option to scan the barcode or the ingredient list.

The translation of the allergen list into different languages for use abroad is also really helpful.

Would definitely recommend the app. Well worth the subscription fee.

Response from developer

Thank you this really means a lot! I'm really glad it's helping you. Labels not bolding allergens is exactly the sort of thing it's there to catch, so I'm very glad it's saving you some wasted food. As ever, if you ever need anything just message me and I'll sort it. Thank you again for using Savo!

Handy app, and a really responsive developer

I found this app when travelling abroad and looking to check if I could eat something. I have some quite complicated and random allergies, and found I am reacting to things that I wouldn’t have expected to. I sent feedback to Jahangir asking for corn to be added to the allergens. What I didn’t expect was his response - a deep understanding of the derivatives and hidden allergens in ingredients such as maltodextrin and glucose-fructose syrup which are not labelled as corn derived. I am thrilled by the outcome and now have an allergen card to show in restaurants across multiple languages. An absolutely brilliant app and well worth the subscription fee. 5*

Response from developer

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it. Corn's a tricky one because so much of it hides behind names like maltodextrin and glucose-fructose syrup that never mention corn on the label, so I'm really glad it's covered for you now. As ever, if you need anything else adding, just message me and I'll sort it. Thank you for your review, and thank you again for using Savo!

Amazing app, a life saver!

Found this app and it’s amazing! We have a fair number of allergies in the family including some not so common ones. Contacted the developer and he very kindly and amazingly quickly added them to the app! The support is second to none and you can tell there is real care and passion behind this app and its development! Saved us a number of times already and we haven’t been using it long.

Response from developer

That's awesome, thank you! There really is. I'm allergic to quite a few things myself, so I really understand the pain of it and just want to make living with allergies slightly better for the people who have them. The less common allergens are usually the ones people get left out of, so if there are ever any more you need just say and I'll add them. Really glad it's already helping the family. As ever, if you need anything just message me and I'll sort it. Thank you again for your review, and thank you for using Savo!

Great app!

I have an allergy to pineapple, it’s something that is being added to foods more regularly and is something that isn’t really thought about. Pineapple was not on the listing but sent a message through and it’s since been added, communication has been amazing and so helpful, I am definitely going to advise friends with the same or other allergies to download and use it in their day to day too. Thank you again for making an app that is going to make life a little easier at a glance

Response from developer

I really appreciate that, thank you very much. It always makes me happy when it's actually useful to someone. Pineapple's sneaking into a lot of things now, so I'm really glad it's on there and helping you. You telling friends means a huge amount at this stage, so thank you for that. As ever, if you need anything just message me and I'll sort it. Thank you again for using Savo!

Such a helpful messaging service

My son has food allergies that were not listed as options to tick so I messaged and asked if they could be added for us. Within an hour his allergens were added. Brilliant service!

Response from developer

That's really awesome to hear, really appreciate it. Thanks for giving it a go! No problem at all, and as ever, if you ever need anything just message me and I'll sort it for you. Thank you again for using it!
