Ratings and Reviews
Great & very informative app
Easy to use app, no issues just type in the E numbers, and the information is there.
Bottom line is app does the job it was designed too, and it does that job well.
👍👍👍👍👍
Needs a bit more work
I like the neat look but a few things need to be fixed. Many additives are contradictorily labeled , says not vegan then below will say suitable for vegans. Also some mislabeled for example said not suitable for a dairy product for vegetarians when it’s actually vegans that it would not be suitable but vegan was not warned. Need a way to create lists of additives I personally am avoiding. Needs more heath conditions. For example there is not warnings on many phosphates or phosphorus when there is many medical/health conditions that need to avoid them. Need to search by word with partial matches. Eg. Typing Phos… will bring up phosphorus & phosphate additives etc.. Need to be able to add a warning icon to additives I’ve added to my personal list
So handy and easy to use
It’s great to have all this information at your fingertips especially when doing the weekly shop!
