When it works

Nice app when it works but I’m finding that half the time it won’t even open up, even when I have 2 bars on 5G. You can forget LTE! Makes no sense to me why it won’t open half the time when I have a good cell signal. Just seems like it’s not very stable to me.

Nice App

It helps a lot just in seconds to know about vegetarian products

Alpha Gal

The Spoonful app has been an important tool in getting a grasp on managing a new diet after an Alpha Gal diagnosis.

I LOVE THIS!!!

i’m baking a cake that my brother with alpha gal will be eating & it’s so simple to scan the ingredient’s bar code or look up alternatives & bake w confidence 😍

Just a question

Can we please add Coles and Aldi to the Australian version of the app? Much appreciated

My Low FODMAP Advisor

I have depended of the spoonful scanner to give me quick advice on the ‘safety’ of a product before I purchase it.
Love this app! Keeps my gut happy. ☺️

Yikes

I just downloaded the app and looked at the initial recommendations. I immediately saw many options that I’m deathly allergic to and no option to scan them out. The app is worthless for me.

Unusable

I can’t use this app as data won’t load. It worked for a while then stopped. When I tried to use the spoonful website my internet providers blocked it for known malicious activity!

I good but one thin

The only thing Is that it does not have the grocery store I go to which is market basket

would be good if it worked

good idea, good potential, but it’s so slow, and sometimes the QR scanner just doesn’t work, never loads anything. so disappointing. refund requested

Don’t try unless you want to buy

I downloaded a trial for this app. It wasn’t useful to me. Unfortunately, I did not cancel in time and now I’m stuck with a $30 app that I have no use for. I submitted a refund request through Apple , twice, and was denied. There is no way to contact this company or the developers. Download at your own risk or you will also be $30 poorer.

Switched to Fig

Not trustworthy. Turns out that cashews are not FODMAP compatible

App Not Opening

Haven’t been able to open the app for a few days - stuck on S screen without opening

Help

I paid for the year and on last update list access - I have until August - the website isht helpful how do I get my app back ? I use every day jeni

Never accurate

^^

Sulphites

You should do a category for Sulphites as I am allergic and other people are, other than that, amazing

Non-vegan products consistently labelled as vegan

The sheer quantity of products containing honey that are labelled as vegan are appalling. There’s also pure honey labelled as vegan. A product that contains shellac, which is derived from beetles, was one of the first allegedly “vegan” products I was shown. I can’t speak for how accurate this app is for other allergies and diets, but if you are vegan STAY AWAY!

Very helpful

This app has been super helpful. A struggle to find vegan options.

A smart shopping helper

This app has helped me so much choose the right foods for my needs. And they are so helpful adding new items quickly. Thank you!

Seemed a bit to complicated to use

Didn’t show certain products so I got confused
