Good but needs updates!!

Overall this is a really good app! It is very informative and covers most additives/chemicals found in foods and cosmetics and tells you about them. There were a few I tried to look up and couldn't find. However, It's a bit pricy! I didn't realize it initially, but the app hasn't been updated since 2010!? Come on developers!!! It also hasn't been optimized for retina displays so the visual quality is poorer than most. However, the app is easy to navigate and has a nice interface. For the price though, it NEEDS some updates!!

Some good info but some misinformation as well

At first, I was very excited to find this app! But then I noticed that while it does have some good information which is why I got two stars instead of one, there are a lot of ingredients that aren’t in the database. There are also some ingredients that are labeled as safe when they are not such as sunflower Lecithin. What’s worse when I emailed them to let them know, they ignored me. Not only is that a horrible customer interface and shameful but there are people eating that it’s hidden in foods and it’s contributing to inflammation an oxidation within the body and I bet people don’t know why they aren’t feeling well. Generally, speaking seed oils are not good for you in any form. Sunflower Lecithin, soy lecithin, safflower lecithin… and more…. are part of the reason America is so sick. I don’t care what the criminal agencies say about it they lie about everything else. Of course they’re going to lie about it being safe. Do your own research. And unfortunately, we can’t even trust like this.
