## What is Vegman?

Animals: Friends. Not food. 

Eating out has never been easier for vegetarians and vegans as the number of restaurants catering to us continues to grow. The Vegman App helps you find vegetarian and vegan,  as well as VEG-friendly restaurants - and wherever you are in the world, it tells you how to get to them.

Waiting for your food? You can use this time to read our newly improved blog right from the Vegman App! 

The Vegman App is a companion app for the community based website www.vegman.org. Please note: Vegman is a work in progress. There are many vegan, vegetarian and, VEG-friendly restaurants in the world and we need your help to identify them. Via our website you can upload images, write reviews, rate restaurants you have visited and flag wrong content, so the community can profit from your experiences as you will profit from content submitted by others. This content will also be accessible in the Vegman App and in a upcoming version we will implement the function to submit data directly from the app.   

We want to thank our worldwide community for helping us build Vegman. Your participation leads to a better world, and the animals and environment thank you for it!

### 3/5 — Reasonable but out of date

*2019-07-28*

I find that many restaurants are no longer open and have closed yet they still show on this app . Some have closed over 3-4 years ago !  I don't believe the app is ever updated. It also shows many restaurants that serve meat as well as veg dishes - which most restaurants do , do what the point of trying to create an app that is marketed as pure vegetation?

### 1/5 — Not helpful

*2018-06-28, version 3.1.3*

I downloaded this app with the hopes of finding vegan options in the city I just moved to. When I seared my zip code, it only came up with Smoothie King. Just because other restaurants aren’t vegan does not mean they do not have vegan options, which is what I was hoping would come up. This is a good idea but could use much improvement.

### 1/5 — Not great

*2017-06-27, version 2.1*

Second time. This is not a great app. Searching was a struggle. I can't even see the results because the search bar suggestions cover it. Internet is better and quicker.

### 3/5 — Amazing app and content, but is always tracking you

*2016-10-30, version 2.1*

As a vegetarian, this is a great app to have around. Sadly I deleted it knowing that the app requires you to always be tracked through location services. There is no way around this. The developer needs to fix this to allow for location services to be on when using the app only. Give your customers the choice of being consistently followed. It feels like you are selling off our data otherwise.

### 2/5 — C'mon. We really need this.

*2016-10-18, version 2.1*

The "upcoming" section hasn't been updated since 2013. If I could, I would beg the developer to either get motivated again, or sell this app to someone who will completely transform it into what it needs to be. This is such a helpful tool, it just needs to be revamped and constantly checked on. Please. *knockknock*

### 1/5 — Lame

*2016-08-01, version 2.1*

Great idea, in theory, but this app misses the mark big time.  Very limited info and rarely updated.  If you want to know where the Mellow Mushroom is in any given city---this is the app for you.  But if you're not looking for a chain and would like to try something not so commercial/mainstream--just use Google.

### 5/5 — Must have app for Vegans

*2016-04-26, version 2.1*

I don't know what I would have done without this app. Arriving in Phoenix Arizona I knew within minus that there was a vegan restaurant less than a mile from me. Equally good in Croatia and the U.K. Well done team and keep up the good work.

### 5/5 — Love this app while traveling!

*2016-03-16, version 2.1*

It's great!

### 5/5 — Great Ap!

*2016-03-10, version 2.1*

I am a Vegan Vegetarian. I have used this ap in many cities across the country.
I LOVE it! Really!
Makes finding Vegetarian and Vegan restaurants very easy!

### 2/5 — Functionality needs to improve

*2015-01-10, version 2.1*

Can only search using phone GPS. The option to search for places you are not currently in does not work.
