This app changed my life!! No more standing around in the grocery store reading every single ingredient label to see if it fits my diet (FODMAP). Can sort by specific grocery stores - genius. And if you cant have the item scanned the app provides suggested items that you can have (including pictures). Honestly amazing. Best app ever.

I'm a teenager figuring out their dietary needs and this is SUPER helpful. The search feature, plus the fact that you can filter by store? Brilliant. Also love the scan feature, and the fact that you can stack diets (gluten free AND low FODMAP, for example). My one issue with this app are that it won't let me save/favorite items, so I have to screenshot them- this could be a bug, not sure. Overall love the app! Super happy with it :)

Thank you Bee! We're glad you're finding it helpful. And shoot, you should be able to favorite just be swiping. Are you signed in? We don't allow favoriting on guest mode, because we don't have an account to save it to. If you are signed in and it's still not working, email support@spoonfulapp.com with your username and we'll take a look.

Found it very helpful when the food you're scanning is listed. Sadly MOST of the items I scanned were not in the database. I got tired having to add them every single time. Seems like it should be someone's job to go to stores and scan all the items in the store before the app is even released. A lot of times the app wouldn't even load up while I was in the store trying to use it. Unsubscribed.
