So frustrating to use. The search sometimes just doesn’t load and I never know if it’s because that food isn’t there or the app isn’t loading. The layout is frustrating & clicking back doesn’t go back to search results, but to the beginning. Green light foods sometimes mean you can eat freely and sometimes mean […]

This app is ok, but I’m not sure it’s worth $9. I have 2 big issues with it. The first relates to bugs in the “search” function, and the second relates to the actual content of the app. First up, Bugs: I have found 2 bugs, so far. It’s easier to simply give examples rather […]
App is informative on ins/outs of the diet, including lots of recipes and journal space. On the downside, database could definitely use improvement. Lots of rare foods included, but common foods are missing. Most frustrating, is the stop light system. Some green foods, it states that green means you can have unlimited servings. Other foods, […]
No ability to export diary data. That’s a big problem for me. The food logging is tedious and makes analyzing the data hard. Ideally, you’d be able to enter foods, build recipes, and select those foods/recipes for you diary food logging. But there is only basic text entry. Food search often doesn’t work, and I […]
What makes this app so great & worth every penny for me was the “Food Guide” which made it really easy to determine if a food was low fodmap or not. You can look up practically any food you could think of and it will tell you, so that you’re not left guessing, which saves […]
app for iOS is much better and easier to use. some of the categories in this app do not appear in the iOS version and some that are on iOS do not appear here. the food journal is much better on the iOS version, this one is only a one week trial version which is […]
Using this to finally start the FODmap diet that I’ve been putting off for years. The diary functionality is frustrating for a paid app. It often opens/defaults to the day before (but not always?), so I have to go back and edit if i forget to catch that. The options for BMs are pretty limited. […]
One of the few apps I’ve ever bought, and completely worth it. I refer to it regularly. This app is the source for the most up to date FODMAP information, direct from the testing lab. I do wish it gave the actual amount of each FODMAP in each food, rather than just assigning a color. […]
It’s only kind of helpful. They need more food in their system. And a way to search for a specific food. And most of the recipes are honestly kinda gross. It comes with all the info you could need on the fodmap diet. And a way to record. But in my opinion, it shouldn’t cost […]
This has been a lifesaver for my Microscopic Colitis. It’s easy to use, shows me what is safe to eat and in what quantity. There’s a shopping list feature, so you can add the safe foods and see the list at the grocery store. There are other good features, too. The one-time cost of the […]
Needs work. I just bought the app today, already found serious problems with it and uninstalled/requested refund. Search doesn’t work in the Food Guide. The filter option doesn’t hide items that are red (and/or amber): if you want a list of what you *can* eat, it is still full of all the items you can’t. […]
The interface is a little messy to deal with in parts, but the information is there. The main issue I have is the lack of consistency between foods with portion presentation. Sometimes it is small to large from left to right, but sometimes from right to left. Please pick a format, and stick with it. […]
Really like this app, but sometimes when you search for a food, you see just a green light, so you think the food is low fodmap for all categories. But when you click on the food, one or more of the triggers is red. Some food entries in the list have multiple lights & multiple […]
This app is fantastic and well worth the $9.00 it costs. Not only does it have tons of foods, all the foods it contains are broken down into accepted amounts. It gives the recommendations for low, medium, and high fodmaps servings for each food. It even tells you which types of fodmaps it contains. This […]
Not worth the price. Not super helpful for a US user. Unorganized food lists. Prioritizes foods and meals that are certified towards the top of searches, but not available to me, locally. The stoplight serving size order or organization is random (sometimes the smallest serving is shown first, sometimes the largest is shown first). Would […]
I love how informative this app is. Their food list is very expansive and inclusive. I took off two stars, however, because there isn’t a search feature, which means you have to scroll through these long lists until you find the food item you’re looking for. I really hope they add a search feature soon, […]
I just installed this app and I’m already disappointed. Lots of info, but it’s nearly impossible to read because it wants to flip forward and back while you scroll down the page to read it. I like that it has a tracker, but it was disappointing I couldnt just add foods in the app to […]
Food search is all I care about with this app, but it is lacking. One of the problems I have is that many foods have different names. If I don’t know how it was entered, I might not find it. For instance, Napa cabbage is entered as Chinese cabbage. Also, if a food isn’t listed […]
This app is easy to use and helps me maintain a low fodmap diet. I was resistant to purchase it and used other apps, but I found that to be able to trust that the information on food amounts, stacking, and which sugar is the culprit, I need this app. I like the color coding […]
Very disappointed in this app, especially for the price. The database is so, SO incredibly small, many generic foods are assigned to random regions which makes filtering by country pointless, and the recipes section is barely several pages long. Searching for safe foods via internet is 100x more informative than using this thing. I tried […]
