Logging in
It logged me out. I cannot log back in and it changes my email to something that's not an email and says my email is wrong even though it lets me put in my email.

Misleading
This app likes to act like that products that are filled with seed oils and additives are good for you just because it has an “organic” label on it. Do your research and don't rely on this app. For the record, I only downloaded this app to prove a point to a few people that the app is flawed for food, cosmetics and other household products.

This app has terrible nutrition advice based on archaic recommendations by the US. I would not use this if you're actually serious about your health. It doesn't even count carbs as bad. It says saturated fats are bad as well as sodium. Not an evidence based app at all.

Rating system is soft now
Used to be much better in rating bad foods and highlighting why. The rating system has changed quite dramatically. Previously foods that had moderately harmful ingredients would get a significantly lower rating. Seems like some big corps have either threatened or paid off owners so food don't look near as bad anymore

Good, but not detailed enough. The app cant tell the difference between foods with with healthy fats or unhealthy fats. It just rates foods with higher amounts of fats as poor.

Mind blown! Can't believe someone of the food items, thinking they are good/decent, are absolutely terrible and should be avoided!

It used to be a really good app, but it just freezes after I take a photo from the ingredients list. And it's been a while!

Lately I need to kill the app before every scan or it won't return results??
