Ratings and reviews

as someone who is health conscious and reads labels, app useful as time saver. however, explanations are vague as in "(this seed oil) may be harmful" What I like are the longer articles explaining how seed oils harmful when i have time and can find them. i dont know if they keep info current. there are products not in their data bank. dont know if they are continually adding. great concept tho.

used to be a great app, now it does not work. scanner takes about 5 minutes to populate, by that time I'm out of the grocery store. if you scan ingredients there's nowhere to upload the picture. how do I get my money back for my annual payment?!?!

I used to love this app until it got to the point where I can no longer use it. Tried to uninstall and reinstall and now I can't even log in. So now, I'm paying for an annual subscription for an app that I can't currently use. Not sure what happened. All the other apps on my phone work fine.
