User Reviews and Ratings
★★☆☆☆Two years between the last and previous review
Can’t be that great or popular if no one feels compeled to review, i mean not even a negative review in two years?
★★★★☆Wonderful but could easily be 5
I’m so impressed by the developers who created an open source food database that’s free. It has amazing data in it. However, it needs some polishing. Ceating an account is unnecessarily glitchy. You can’t get an ampersand for the email address because it gives a phone keyboard for the account ID. I found a workaround by using the microphone feature of your phone. Then it gave me a regular keyboard for some reason. Small things like that should be easy to fix. Then I would not hesitate t
★★☆☆☆Works as described but lacks data
This is a great idea. The problem is that although the scanner recognizes the product (at least generically, but often not the specifics such as the brand) there is no data in the dB for many products. The first four items I scanned all asked ME to enter all the data from the package. Tsk tsk. If you’re crowdsourcing the data it’s going to take a while before this app becomes useful.
★★★★★Finally a convenient way to avoid ultra processed foods
The database of foods is much larger than I expected. I knew we consumed more ultra processed foods than we should but some of the foods I thought were healthy were actually ultra processed.
This is a great app and look forward to it continued success.
★★★★☆Needs More Users!
This could be such a great app if more people utilized it and input data on the food that they’re eating.
