### 1/5 — Falschaussagen

*2025-07-20*

Das erste Produkt was ich zum "Test" eingescannt habe ist eine Cocktailsoße mit Eigelb gewesen. Wollte schauen ob die App was bringt. Leider steht dort ganz groß "Dieses Produkt ist vegan".

Das Allein wäre jetzt erstmal kein Problem. Aber es gibt nirgends einen Button wo man in einem kurzen Wisch an die Datenbank durchgeben kann, dass es hier einen Fehler gibt. Man kann nur dem Support aufwändig eine Email schreiben. Deshalb lohnt sich diese App für mich nicht. Schade.

### 5/5 — Overall great app

*2025-06-06*

Overall this app is great and has helped me when I wasn’t sure about some ingredients. I have encountered an issue prior about it not reading ingredients, it read part of an item description. I tried again and it worked. Could have had something to do with angle. Great app anyway.

### 1/5 — Einordnung nicht korrekt

*2025-05-12*

Deklariert Produkte als vegan, obwohl sie dies offensichtlich nicht sind. App wurde wurde gelöscht.

### 1/5 — Frechheit

*2025-05-06*

Diese App hat mir jetzt 2 mal Produkte angezeigt und gesagt dass diese vegan wären WÄHREND SIE ES NICHT SIND. Was soll das.

### 3/5 — Tolle App, aber…

*2024-08-25*

Es ist ne tolle App, aber bei mir gibt es ein paar Probleme. 
1. Vegan Label wird trotzdem manchmal nicht erkannt.
2. Sprache in der Anzeige ist komplett durcheinander. Ich habe gerade ein Produkt gescannt, wo die Auswertung in drei verschiedenen Sprachen durcheinander dargestellt wurde. 
3. keine Möglichkeit, Feedback in der App zu geben.
4. keine Möglichkeit, das vorhandene Abo-Modell zu überprüfen oder wiederherzustellen. 
5. unklar, welche Daten vom User gesammelt und verwendet werden. App Store sagt keine, die verlinkte Feedback Seite (die aber zu einer anderen App vom Entwickler gehört) sagt, es werden doch Daten verwertet. Was denn nun? Und wenn Daten verwertet werden, wie sind die an den User gekoppelt? Man macht ja schließlich nirgendwo einen Account. Ich bin verwirrt. 

Wenn das gefixt wird, gibt es gerne die fünf Sterne von mir.

### 5/5 — Great App Makes Life Simpler

*2024-08-22*

This app works quickly and easily. It makes life so much simpler when you’re checking ingredients. It’s seamless and quick and provides accurate information. I’ll use it all the time.

### 1/5 — Camera functions not working

*2024-08-21*

The camera and scan ingredients function don’t work, so it is unusable. These two functions also get you stuck in that mode so you have to close the app to exit.

### 5/5 — Awesome and accurate

*2024-08-21*

Scanned dozens of items, common, local, and foreign, and all but 2 obscure vitamins showed up. It only made one tiny mistake in a full pantry, fridge, and freezer of food (both vegan and non). If you’re trying to avoid eating animals, this is the way to go.
