Avaliações dos Usuários

Users appreciate FoodSwitch for its easy-to-use interface and helpfulness in identifying healthier food options, especially for those with dietary restrictions. However, many report the app struggles to recognize scanned products due to a limited database, experiences long loading times, and has device compatibility issues. The shift to requiring registration for certain features and regressions in the new version compared to the previous one have caused frustration among users. Overall, the app is seen as promising but currently limited by technical and usability issues.

Prós

User-friendly interface suitable for all ages, including seniors.
Helpful for people with specific dietary needs like coeliac disease and fitness goals.
Allows scanning of barcodes to compare nutritional information and find healthier food options.
Option to add missing products to the database by users.

Contras

App frequently fails to recognize or scan many products, indicating a limited database.
Loading times are very long, sometimes taking days, making the app inconvenient to use.
Compatibility issues with certain devices; some phones are mistaken for tablets and deemed unsupported.
Gluten-free and other dietary filters require users to register, which some find inconvenient.
New version lacks features present in older version and has usability regressions, causing dissatisfaction among long-time users.

Avaliações recentes

Trying to understand after the download opening the app is telling me 'loading your healthier options...' I don't think it is meant to go into its second day loading the new Percentage number is 26204% I thought that Percentage only goes to 100. I am about 2 minutes away from uninstalling this time-wasting app that I hope to maybe use. If you choose to ignore this feedback then I will take it to the top.

My doctor recommended this app and I liked the idea. So I installed and then went to the cupboard and found some products to scan, just so I could see how it works. After scanning half a dozen products, none of them were in the database. This doesn't bode well.
