## What is ZOE Health?

The ZOE App helps you build healthy eating habits, eat more mindfully, and understand your nutrition, one meal at a time. Because what you eat can improve your energy, mood, gut health, and sleep.

Powered by cutting-edge research, AI food scoring, microbiome data, and the world’s largest nutrition study run by ZOE, our app delivers science-backed nutrition insights — cutting through the noise of misleading food marketing and confusing dieting advice. So, whether your goal is to eat less heavily-processed foods, eat more fiber, or simply understand what’s actually inside your food, ZOE’s AI food scanner helps you make informed food choices backed by science, not trends.

ZOE empowers healthy eating with daily nutrition guidance and a smart food tracker. Our app gives you instant, science-backed answers to support smarter food choices and long-term health. It helps you shift your focus from counting calories to nutrition and food quality — making healthy eating simple, sustainable, and enjoyable.

Here’s what you can do with ZOE’s science-backed nutrition app:


SCAN A MEAL TO SEE ITS RISK

With the barcode scanner, ZOE’s App uses our Processed Food Risk Scale to reveal your food’s risk score, helping you understand how a food's processing might impact your health. You’ll get clear, evidence-based nutrition feedback in seconds, based on science — not marketing spin. The Risk Scale reveals a food’s rating — from no risk to high risk. Built by ZOE’s world-leading scientists, this tool cuts through confusing labels and health marketing buzzwords, so you can make smarter food choices every time you eat.

SNAP A MEAL TO KNOW IT’S HEALTHY
With a single photo, our app gives you evidence-based nutrition feedback in seconds, powered by ZOE’s unique food database. When you log a meal, ZOE will instantly tell you how healthy it is. With photo food logging, you can receive nutrition guidance from your AI diet coach. ZOE gives you daily nutrition insights and meal scoring, helping you eat mindfully and make healthier food choices that support your eating habits, healthy cooking, weight loss and weight maintenance goals, and overall well-being.

BUILD BETTER EATING HABITS, ONE SCORE AT A TIME
Whether you want to cut back on high-risk processed foods or eat more plants, ZOE’s AI Food Scanner makes it easy to build healthy eating habits that last.

### 4/5 — AI Misinterpretation & Gaps In App Logic

*2026-08-11, version 2.2.20*

The responsiveness and speed of the app is great, however after coming back to the app after a while it seems like there’s some large gaps in its logic as well as the scanning AI producing odd results. 

Scanning recipe cards from providers such as Mindful Chef or Gusto produce sporadic and incorrect results when interpreted by the AI, sometimes it’s close but most of the time it’s quite far off in terms of the calories and macros. Multiple attempts of the same scan produce different results each time. The only way to tally the macros is to manually manipulate the ingredients until it kind of matches - it would be much quicker to just be able to manually edit the macros before committing.

Additionally trying to quickly log previously scanned foods is not easy to do as ingredients are wrapped up inside meals in the Recent list. Any ingredient should be able to be easily searchable and recalled so it can be used again and again whenever needed without needing to rescan it or having to favourite each individual item. 

A few tweaks could make logging so much better and quicker.

### 3/5 — Letting themselves down by pushing products

*2026-08-11, version 2.2.20*

I think Zoe is contributing a lot to our diets.  The scientific information about diet is second to none and the company is contributing a lot to research.  They are lending their credentials  in the scientific  community to put across what seems like a valuable nutritional programme which I have bought into.

However I think they are letting themselves down by now pushing products like a subscription for 30 plus sprinkles and now a new bar.  They are using some of the worst internet marketing methods to push these products at us at every end and turn.  For me this undermines  their scientific integrity.  Stop it guys.

### 2/5 — Paid and unable to use

*2026-08-10, version 2.2.20*

I’m a Zoe investor and like to use the products on offer to customers. I signed up for a trial, on a rolling contract, paid my first weeks subscription and that’s as far as I’ve got. I’m unable to log into the app, with the same credentials as I use to log into the website from where I purchased the plan and manage my Zoe customer account. Further to this technical support has been poor, I’m still waiting, 5 days on for contact.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-08-09, version 2.2.20*

This is going to help me increase my veggie and fruit intake. I really like the scoring system.

### 4/5 — Beef patty

*2026-08-08, version 2.2.20*

Should read Lamb Steak didn’t know how to change it.
What happened to my Lunch? Fetta and veggies?spinach, lemon Juice tomato?
I also have to be careful of seeds, as I have Diverticulitis flare ups.

### 2/5 — Extremely tedious to log food, lacking compared to other tracking apps, and over gamified.

*2026-08-07, version 2.2.20*

The knowledge base is great, but the app is severely lacking in multiple areas.

Compared to other food logging apps in the field, such as Cronometer, this app pales in regard to logging your data. 

The process of saving meals, foods, and finding them again is tedious. 

The search function for your saved foods does not work. 

The UI is sluggish and has too much emphasis on gamifying the process. 

Logging your diet is a chore with this app, and I imagine a lot will simply give up due to the frustration of it.

After one week of tracking I won’t be logging any more data.

### 1/5 — Old app was great. Don’t waste your money on this one.

*2026-08-07, version 2.2.20*

I resubscribed to Zoe and am
now locked in for a year to an app that provides very little that’s helpful.

### 1/5 — Gaps and bugs

*2026-08-06, version 2.2.20*

Great when it works but frustrating bugs where ingredients are not added and you have to re-do multiple times. Sadly, too, Zoe does not highlight sodium content so I won’t renew my membership as this is a huge gap. The gamification is annoying, I feel like I’m being treated as a child.

### 1/5 — Goodbye After 3 Years

*2026-08-06, version 2.2.20*

If you are just starting your health journey, and are going to use the company’s testing to determine health markers such as gut microbiome and blood sugar reactivity, then I would still recommend this app. 

I did that three years ago, and have religiously used this app since then. 

Unfortunately, the new update that happened in July completely changed the structure of the app. All of the features that I was using as a dedicated member are now gone. I cannot upload my own recipes and modify them with ingredients that work for me. I can no longer track my fasting window or the percentage of macros. I can no longer see what percentage of calories each week are coming  from processed foods or unhealthy fats. I can’t meal plan and make a grocery list. Instead, I’m getting the video lessons that I did when the app started three years ago in some gamified format. 

I will always be grateful for the initial insights I gained through Zoe, but the app redesign was like putting the training wheels back on a bike I learned to ride years ago. Maybe if the wonderful features returned, it’d be worth the subscription.

### 3/5 — Doesn’t work well anymore

*2026-08-05, version 2.2.20*

This app used to work fine, but all of a sudden when I try to type an item in when editing a meal The screen jumps up and all the spots where you type in the food and the amount disappears and you only see the “save changes” bar. It’s super annoying. And today another thing started happening. When I try to edit a food. And I am able to type something and either won’t type or when I click on a food everything. What is going on?
