About this app

The Michigan WIC Mobile App will give WIC participants the opportunity to view
upcoming appointments, view food benefits that have been issued to them in the clinic,
scan UPCs while shopping at the store to see if the UPC is a WIC Approved item or not,
and provide information on locations of WIC Stores and WIC Clinics across the State of
Michigan and also Update your contact information with WIC.
The goal of the Michigan WIC Mobile App is to give participants all the information they
need at their fingertips to make their shopping experience fun and easy

Ratings and reviews

Glitchy, unreliable and half the time you can't log in. Then it will scan things and say they are approved then you get to the register and it denies the purchase. They really need to update the product info on this app so it's not so nerve racking and embarrassing getting to the register then having to try and figure out what products you can't pay for.

The scanner on the app hardly works. You have to keep reopening the scanner with it already pointing at the bar codes any other way does not work-I spend a lot of time going back & reopening the scanner. However recently this app has stopped working!! Says "unable to connect servers, try again later" has been going on for over a wk! Try reinstalling it & it didn't work! I'm not the only one getting this message. Going to contact my WIC branch to see if there's anything they can do. Super frustrating it hasn't been fixed yet!!!

The app (pre-update) was helpful in a pinch! After the last major update, however, it has become a pain. Every single time i go to open the app, i am given the option to sign up or log in- which is fine! Unfortunately, every time i try to sign in, it takes me to the "authenticate" site and has me go thru the WHOLE process of authenticating repeatedly! This takes longer than just calling the WIC automated hotline and finding out whats left. Barcode scanner has always been iffy.
