Ratings and reviews

The app is fully working for me now, before it would freeze and would stay frozen even after closing the app, reinstalling... Anyways, it is fully accessible for me, and I am enjoying using it. Most products I buy regularly are good! So I've been adding as many as I can scan into the system! Thank you to the developers for creating this!

Definitely a helpful tool for starting research, but it is worth double-checking the alternatives offered. For example, Dunkin Donuts is not complaint and it suggested Illy coffee instead.... but then Illy is also not complaint either. Edit: The alternative brands has gotten less functional. I can only see the first 3 options and the ability to scroll is broken. Glad to see that a Congo campaign is coming soon, but please fix basic functions first!

There's a glitch with the search button where I can't type more than one letter at once & the list keeps refreshing every letter I typed. Hopefully this will be fixed soon as I literally just updated the app.
