Just downloaded last night and used it in the grocery store this morning.  So far I like it, was helpful in deciding on what to buy 🍎🍓🍐🥝

### 5/5 — Amazing app!!!!

*2018-04-27*

Amazing app... breaks down every veggie/fruit/grain and tells you if and when you should buy it organic, why you should or shouldn’t , how to prep it, and nutrition facts.

### 4/5 — Update please

*2016-10-01, version 3.0*

*2015-10-28*

I have actually used this app quite a few times while in the supermarket.  Good for a quick check.

### 5/5 — So Helpful

*2015-09-03*

I love this app!! I am often in grocery stores with a very limited selection of organic produce. This app lets me know what is safe to buy and what to leave behind.

### 5/5 — Helping my children make healthier choices!

*2015-07-14*

My children are so excited to go to the grocery store with me. As soon as we walk in the doors, they have my phone and this app open. They check every single produce item we buy. I love it!!! They love it and best of all they are learning how to eat clean and healthy.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2015-03-18, version 2.0*

Great app for determining vitamin/mineral content of foods. Would like to see recipe link(s) for each food.

### 5/5 — Great for trips to the grocery store

*2015-03-10, version 2.0*

I can't always afford to buy everything organic, so this app is great for grocery trips!

### 5/5 — It's actually fairly useful

*2015-02-27*

I use it for a minute when I go to the supermarket to see whether I should pay the extra cash for organic....it's free and I actually use this app...so 5 stars!

### 5/5 — App

*2015-02-24, version 2.0*

Awesome!!!

### 5/5 — So useful!

*2015-02-16, version 2.0*

So easy to use. Can reference my favorite fruits and veggies quick while I'm shopping. Can wait till summer so I can hit up some farmers markets!

### 4/5 — A much needed update

*2015-02-16*

Glad to see this get updated. Now I can find ( as far as I know) any farmers market out there, even the ones near me! Hope this keeps getting updated more often.

### 5/5 — So Happy

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Stupid

*2014-10-02*

US only and the favourites feature does not work,minimal choice of produce....Ordinary at best

### 1/5 — Love the concept but lacks credibility!

*2013-08-08, version 1.0*

Why is the corn "green"?!? Virtually all non-organic corn (90-95%) are GMO!!! GMO seeds are injected with Round Up to repel pests, definitely NOT safe to eat. Made me wonder who backed this app...

### 1/5 — Corn

*2011-03-21, version 1.0*

Why would they label corn as green, almost all corn unless labeled organic is genetically modified and therefor not safe to eat. It should be in the red. Makes you question the reliability of the rest of their ratings....

### 2/5 — Good info, irritating sounds

*2015-05-18, version 2.0*

That says it all

### 2/5 — Boots me out

*2013-09-28, version 1.0*

I love this app except every time I click on "markets" at the bottom, then click on a state (any state) I get booted completely out of the app. Please fix this. Other than that, it's really great.

### 2/5 — Oh and that one reviewer...

*2012-12-19, version 1.0*

In Sept of last year mentions it is them not understanding. But how can it be the users' fault and not of the designer? It is intentionally misleading.

### 2/5 — Nice...

*2012-05-14*

Nice.....but, needs more info about Farmers Markets like, day and times. 

The range of produce varieties is limited.  would love to see more info about how sprays effect our environment and bodies. Then you'd keep me using this app.

I don't agree with Corn being labeled as safe, it is highly sprayed with pesticides and GMO is an issue WE can't ignore. Although the creators of this app defend the corn info, I don't eat corn from stores or farmers markets.

### 2/5 — Corn is not flagged: BIG problem

*2011-09-11, version 1.0*

GMO (Genetically modified) food has had it's cells invaded with bacteria, viruses & an anti-biotic marker (this is all true. See "Food Over Forks" documentary from research) and going untested, sprayed with heavy pesticides and unlabeled into CORN, wheat, soy beans & canola. Unless it's organic, it's GMO on those products. This should be flagged for "buy organic". Fix this ASAP please

### 4/5 — Excellent Info

*2020-01-28*

Simple app but too many interrupting ads. Info is excellent but I’d like to input my colors when I mark it as my favorite. Ple ase add more content....

### 4/5 — Love this App

*2019-10-06*

It is perfect.

### 5/5 — I have learned so much from this app over the years

*2026-06-25*

This app provides detailed information on various fruits and vegetables including their nutritional value and whether organic is recommended. I use it to learn more about the fruits I purchase particularly the exotic ones. I am also pleased that the developer has not abandoned the app and has not only released an update but also a complete redesign with a new app icon.

### 5/5 — a Food Bible

*2025-11-09*

I open this app almost daily to help purchase foods that nourish and help prevent diseases, love it!

### 5/5 — The best!

*2025-06-07*

THEE BEST APP I’ve come across in quite. some. time. It’s clear, concise, easy to use AND it’s beautiful to look at. It’s so satisfying to find the exact kind of app you’re looking for, one that meets all your needs and then some, without anything I don’t need. I often find myself Googling, “is (blank) high in pesticides”. This is so much quicker and easier. I appreciate the extra stuff too (nutrition and prep) but really appreciate that you’ve kept it concise. I love the layout and overall look of the app. I especially love that you can see at a glance which foods are safe or not, without having to click on it. And ad free is only 99 cents 🙌🏼 I really can’t thank you enough! 🙏🏼

### 5/5 — Great Shopping Companion but could go further

*2023-02-14*

I have consistently used Organic Buddy for many years. Use it to find farmers markets nearby and to decide which foods to by organically or conventionally grown. It is a great shopping companion.  But I am increasingly wanting more. What about grains, including flours, and legumes?  I buy bulk dried grains and beans a lot.

### 5/5 — Best app

*2022-02-18*

I use it very often and people see me and I pass it on to them. Great app thank you

### 5/5 — Great Shopping Companion

*2021-08-17, version 3.1*

I like this app a lot. Use it to find farmers markets nearby and to decide which foods to by organically or conventionally grown. It is a great shopping companion.

### 5/5 — Useful

*2021-04-10*

I’ve used this app many times while shopping. In the last year or so it crashes every time I try and open it. Is it obsolete? Or should I delete it and reload it? Anyone know?

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2021-02-09*

Pretty useful when buying groceries... it would be nice to have the option to create more lists besides favorites.

### 5/5 — Organic Buddy!

*2020-04-15, version 3.1*

Great app for seasonal food and farmers markets. I’ve had this app for years and it great!🤗

### 5/5 — Simple

*2019-09-12*

Love the simplicity
