5★Excellent! See what you're eating! Greatly exceeds my expectations. Simple to use. Scan the bar code of any food item - it quickly provides a score with a breakdown of the good and bad. I quickly scanned most of the things in my pantry used regularly and immediately identified 3 or 4 things to eliminate/reduce/replace in my diet. Some scores are obvious - butter is bad with high fat, calories. But, my "healthy" non-butter spread was much worse! It suggests healthier alternatives. Great app!

5★It's a great app! Free version. The work behind the scenes saves me the time from having to do the research. There's a breakdown of ingredients and explain the risk factors. They provide healthier alternatives as well. No ads, a plus! I look forward to seeing more products added. For a small yearly subscription, there's more. Thank you, Yuka Team!

5★Great app. Very useful, it informs you of all of the positives and negatives of each product on your health. The only problem I have, is that it takes points off the total score if there are any additives at all, even if they are no-risk. Which, isn't much of a problem for me because I can decipher that myself, but it may not be accurate for people who base their judgement, purely off the number.

4★Overall all great app and very eye-opening the chemicals in our foods. One thing I would suggest is the ability to see what grocery stores carry the products listed under the (alternative) Recommendations, or even a filter where I can select only recommendations that are available at a particular grocery store. That would be very helpful as I don't know if my store carries all the ones that are listed.

5★The app is exactly what I needed. It allows me to pick and choose what I should be getting without the hassle of reading. Even if you do not become a member, the app is still very useful in determining what foods are good to get based on judgement. The app rarely does give not-so-accurate recommendations but you can clearly if it's wrong based on judgement. Honestly the only app that I use constantly to where it feels like second nature. I'd recommend for sure.
