Ratings and reviews

Lots of useful information but always encounter with error. Cannot track item now as kept saying there is an error. Informative but incredibly buggy app. Consider before subscription. Update: the error has resolved after long while. However the range of food is quite limited for some cuisines (e.g Chinese) and inability to add individual items for counts. Was hoping to rely on the app to track the total food count but I have to use alternative method now.

Was great until the latest update, now doesn't even open. The apparent update has not fixed anything for me. Waste of money but the inconvenience is even worse, I was relying on this to record what food my 6 month old was trying, now that's all lost!!! Note I am still having issues 2 months later with this app!! It will work for a week then stop working. Do not recommend at all.

Found this app great for information about different foods before offering to my baby, and keeping a record of foods tried. However, I was not impressed that after a while of using the app, it glitched and locked me out while still paying for the subscription. Then, when I eventually got a new password emailed to me, and I logged in, it constantly logged me out. Now, the app simply doesn't log any new data and just says "unable to save". Will be copying all my data and cancelling my subscription
