Review summary

Users appreciate that the app provides vegan ingredient details and supports barcode scanning with a clean interface. However, multiple reviews highlight critical issues: the search feature by text is broken and unusable; the product database is incomplete, resulting in many unknowns; the app can crash or fail to open; and barcode scanning requires repetitive restarting, making it cumbersome. Overall, while the app has potential for helping identify vegan products, its poor search functionality and limited database significantly hamper user experience.

Pros

App provides ingredient information that is easier to read than labels.
Supports barcode scanning (QR codes and barcodes) to identify products.
Interface is fresh and user-friendly in design.
Helps users determine if products are vegan-friendly, especially when labels aren’t clear.

Cons

Text search functionality is broken or does not work properly; users cannot type or see what they are typing.
Database is incomplete; many products (e.g., LOKA drinks) are missing, leading to frequent 'unknown' results.
App crashes or fails to open on some devices.
Barcode scanner requires repeatedly backing out and restarting for each scan, causing inconvenience.
Limited search methods as many products do not have QR codes, and text search is non-functional.

2024-06-01	Sv*****	Works pretty well! Looks fresh. Would be good to add an option to ask for a check up on a certain product, when it is not listed in the app. Just like you can in the cruelty cutter app.

2024-04-07	A *****	Can't even find all products in their database. I wanted to know if a drink from LOKA was vegan and they don't even have LOKA in their database it seems.

2024-04-01	Da*****	Does what it says! I was looking for an app to tell me if it was Vgean friendly as some products don't say. Like "suitable for vegetarians" isn't enough! Despite the app saying scan QR Code, a barcode works too.

2024-03-29	Ma*****	A few bugs, you have to keep backing out and clicking it again to use the barcode scanner after each individual use. The search bar doesn't work...BUT...it gives you ingredients with the barcode scan which are easier to read than the label itself. This app has potential.
