App is Garbage
The app sucks, let us use the website again instead of trying to make us use the app. Will find another app or website that’s actually useful for quickly looking up nutrition information
Disappointed - enjoyed the original app
Tried to scan a food product to get a grade like when the app was first launched and was disappointed to find that the company uploaded its label and propaganda. I loved this app for being able to walk through a grocery store and find out the rating based on real nutrition facts. Now it is a calorie counter and diet ideas shared by various bias. Before it was just the facts on how processed and healthy a product was. Now it is useless for my needs. Deleted it sadly, loved and referred this app for years.
False calculators, overall buggy
Horrible app. It said if I’m on a cut as a woman I should be eating 2800 calories. Super buggy at almost every point, can’t even adjust the numbers nor adjust the serving you had to accurately reflect what you consumed.
Ads….
Popup ads every single time I open the app. Not worth it.
Missing data
Paid for the pro so I could track and analyze all macros and it only breaks down carbs. What a rip off
Not worth the Money
Does not have enough calories count. Recipe and calorie don’t match. Very misleading.
Create a food
It won’t create a food. It just loads for 20 minutes.
Horrible
I tried to sign in and it didn’t let me because I’m 10 that is so whack. I’m never downloading this app ever again. And also most of the reviews are negative.
Expensive membership lost
Paid around $100 for a lifetime membership and they lost it
Wouldn’t let me use
I was just downloading and app and inputting my info when all the sudden, after I put in my age a message pops up saying “you can’t continue to use fooducate”. The issue is, the App Store says it’s 17+ and I’m 17, almost 18. And I put in my birthday correctly. I tried swiping out of the app, I tried redownloading it and restarting my phone. Not sure what the issue it
Don’t count on the free trial
Was charged right away and didn’t get the 7 day free trial
Add new products
App won’t let me send the email when I want to add products that are not scanning
Don’t download
Everything is behind a paywall. Useless without paying. Not worth the cost. Basic functions available in other apps not available here. Food ratings are arbitrary and not based on true science. Use Samsung health instead. Edit: their response to this is both very generic and meaningless. They couldn’t even be bothered to write a real response.
Infinite potential but completely missing core element
This app does have great potential of taking away a vast part of the market share. However, when it comes to adding the missing nutritional information from so many various food items that are missing from your database, it is extremely frustrating that you ask to send the photo of the nutritional labels via e-mail to be addressed at a later time by someone else, who does that these days. It should be addressed immediately via A.I. tools being implemented right within the app so that it can immediately extract all necessary nutritional information right from the user’s photo of the nutrition label, instantaneously reflected in real-time basis. Please get with the trend and keep your app capable; otherwise, new contenders will literally turn your app completely irrelevant, then no one will use it, period.
Not free
Got up because it said it was free and it's not. Don't waste your time unless you wanna pay.
Horrible App
This app can’t find foods on a consistent basis. Half the time you can’t find the grocery tab. What a waste of time. My Fitness Pal is a far better app.
Like most, it spies in you
This app used to be great, but I stopped using it for a while and now that I started using it again, it keeps saying that there is a network error. To make sure I am connected to WiFi or cellular service. It is, but the problem is that I ALWAYS use a VPN. They hate that because it makes it a lot harder for them to track us and spy on us. Many unscrupulous companies (I don’t know about this one) claim that they don’t allow VPN’s because of security concerns. What a load of you know what. VPN’s increase your online security by encrypting your online traffic. And that is why they keep telling people to use a VPN while using a public and unsecured internet connection. Such as the WiFi connections at markets, stores, coffee houses, airports and bus terminals, and so on. But it also interferes with companies ability tracking you and your device. No tracking, no selling of your personal information and that means less money for the greedy developers.
UPDATE YOUR APP PLEASE, THANK YOU
It’s really buggy and I can’t use it.
Don’t get taken!
So I checked my Apple account… was charged $35 for this app not sure how?! I downloaded it months ago have t used since didn’t find it helpful! Beware when they get your info they use it… so a yr subscription I cancelled but eating no pun intended $35 for nothing!
Very lacking
Lacking, they charge you for macro analysis but they have incomplete and/or inaccurate information. And it takes them months to implement the information you provide for the product they don’t have.
Didn’t even get in
I don’t often leave reviews. But this app made me mad. If it’s “completely free” to register and “my card will not be charged” then why don’t need my credit card information?
ad infested
redownloaded this after a few years and I guess they got bought out by some giant company, sad to see that the app now is just covered with ads and trying to push you towards their premium plan, a shame and I will be looking elsewhere for food tracking apps
