### 1/5 — Your gubment at work

*2021-03-30, version 1.0.3*

While I’m surprised they ever made the app, it now hasn’t been updated in 3 years and no longer works.

### 1/5 — 7-yr Old App STILL Crashes

*2021-03-22, version 1.0.3*

US•Duh-published app still crashes for the same exact issue after existing seven (7) years, a review stating as much (total of 3 currently; so not hard to find/see), and a wonky iOS interface that still has poor ‘Release’ coding & QA errors. 
An app crashing and restarting, like this one, after a zip-code search (when search returns, the “USDA” logo also covers the Back page link) is tried is low hanging fruit easily resolved at the end of a sprint or Release testing. 
Should we just be happy civil ‘servants’ did something?! Poorly executed app.

### 1/5 — Good concept but....

*2014-02-20, version 1.0.0*

This app is a good concept because I remember the old books you used to look up est. numbers, addresses etc. But it doesn't seem to function properly. Type in zip then nothing no option to push go, search etc. just nothing. Hopefully the bugs get fixed cause this could be a very useful app!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not easy to use, doesn’t display correctly

*2026-08-18, version 2.0.2*

The App has for years a shortcoming where it does not display correctly, content is good, for a quick company/establishment look up, once one knows how to work the ineffective enlarged interface display on Apple devices such as smartphones.

### 1/5 — Will not function at all on IOS

*2025-10-24, version 2.0.1*

It will open but will spin the loader forever when you try to search.

### 1/5 — Sales

*2025-08-18, version 2.0.1*

The apps is no longer works

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2025-05-03, version 2.0.1*

This app is useless. What’s the point of this app if it doesn’t work. It’s been 3 weeks since I downloaded this app and not function works.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2025-02-05, version 2.0.1*

Oversized fonts. Word overlay each other.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2024-10-17, version 2.0.1*

App looks terrible! Cannot search, way big on screen and is locked up! Used to love the app. Sad

### 1/5 — Outdated, slow, crashes a lot.

*2024-01-08, version 1.0.3*

Can you do better ??? 

Crashes all the time and now stops working. I always use it but I have had enough and deleted it!

### 1/5 — DOES NOT WORK

*2023-09-26, version 1.0.3*

This app is useless. Does not work under ios17. 
Waste of time to download.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2023-02-22, version 1.0.3*

This app has not been updated and nothing comes up when I type in a known establishment’s name or zip code. Why have an app that doesn’t work? When it’s fixed, a good option of searching alphabetically would help, as well.

### 1/5 — Crashes on opening

*2023-02-21, version 1.0.3*

App will not open. Crashes at opening.

### 5/5 — Finally this application makes it to the 21st century!

*2024-02-27, version 2.0.0*

For years, this application displayed in a funky pre-iPhone 5 format, barely functioning on modern devices. Recently, it has been updated to look normal. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Inspection Directory

*2014-08-06, version 1.0.2*

This is an easy to use app and results are immediate. It's nice to see what plant you are purchasing your meats from.

### 5/5 — FSIS Rocks

*2014-02-25, version 1.0.1*

Keep up the good work.

### 2/5 — Not current

*2019-10-03, version 1.0.3*

Seems like an awful high number of plants are not in the database. I have updated but still does not appear. Sometimes there are P####+B####+ etc where a single operator processes different species.  Need the ability to put in only a single “letter” plus number in order to locate the plant info.
