5/5Feels like I’m shopping with Bobby
I am constantly opening my Bobby approved app when I’m in the grocery store or one of my parents buys something that looks like it’s probably not good. The app is very user friendly and you can navigate easily. One things that has shown me some problems is the search feature, that can be tricky sometimes when looking for something and it doesn’t show up but then you delete the search and it shows up under brands and then it works. Overall experience is worth 5+ stars. So many great deals on there like seed that I got turned onto from Bobby and especially thieve market. Worth a download and go scan everything in your house haha because you will be surprised to see what is harmful. I think I can proudly say everything that I use like food items or personal care products or even soaps and detergents are completely Bobby approved thanks to the app and Bobby teaching you what is worthy of being in your body and what to always avoid. THANK YOU Bobby for your amazing app and hard work and please continue to do what you do. You have inspired me to be just like you one day when I grow up and now going to studying public health at college!

5/5Best food health products app on the market
I recently started using the Bobby approved food scanner app and I am absolutely loving it! This app makes it so easy to scan the barcode of any food item and quickly determine whether it meets my dietary preferences and restrictions. As someone with particular food sensitivities, this app has been a game-changer for me in helping me make informed choices when grocery shopping. I appreciate that the app provides clear and easy-to-understand information about each food item, including whether it is Bobby approved or not. The interface is user-friendly and the scanning feature is quick and reliable. I also like that I can customize my preferences within the app so that it only shows me foods that align with my dietary needs. Overall, I highly recommend the Bobby approved food scanner app to anyone who is looking to make healthier and more informed food choices. It has definitely helped me take the guesswork out of shopping for groceries and I have already noticed a positive impact on my overall health and well-being. Thank you, Bobby approved, for creating such a fantastic tool!

4/5Huge Help
EDIT: I'm adjusting my original score up because I've found that there has been a degree of subjectivity added to the ratings. Additionally, as I've become more knowledgeable of Bobby's values, I understand the recommendations at a deeper level. The only things that I feel are still negatives are that many items are incorrect or out of date and since the nutrition facts of each product are not reviewed, there is still a great amount of subjectivity that cannot be achieved. For example, many products list "sugar" as an ingredient but don't even have 1g per serving. That food is likely Bobby Approved but the app will usually say it's not. That being said, the app goes way beyond what I would expect for the price (FREE). Just know that you'll trade analyzing food labels for analyzing Bobby recommendations. 👍 ORIGINAL: I'm a Bobby fan and was excited to use this app but it has turned out to be mostly useless. The problem is that items are either Approved or Not Approved. There is no in-between. The result is that nearly everything that you scan in Not Approved. Bobby's videos are more forgiving. He'll often times recommend items that aren't organic but are still healthy. I wish this app provided item ratings (scaled 1-5) instead of 👍👎.

5/5LOVE
Oh my greatness! I’m in love with the app! It takes away the concern from purchasing something with questionable ingredients! Now I wish products had UPC codes on front of the packages😋 I had been purchasing a butter alternative that was not Bobby approved but with the apps help I have found another option. I did find and item that had not been uploaded so I sent pictures of the product and ingredients in but felt guilty knowing Bobby would to stay up and research the product. It just shows the dedication and love of what he represents. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and family with us. The people with negative reviews apparently aren’t aware Bobby stated it’s a work in progress and he is trying to add and evolve the app but it takes time. Rome wasn’t built in a day🤦♀️and in no way does anyone have to adhere to his Keto lifestyle he offers so much useful information along with what he has chosen for himself. Take away what is useful for yourself or move along to something else. Just make the app icon Rose❣️

5/5Love it!
I have always been a big fan of Bobby, probably because of Little Rose originally lol, but I feel like I have been watching him for years. What I really like about this app, even if it’s not BobbyApproved, you can view all of the ingredients and see what’s bad and make your decision from there. I’m not a wealthy person, so I can’t really afford to buy all the things that does, or even have it available here, but I listen to what he says. So I’d rather take something that only has “natural flavor” listed as something bad, rather than all the other things. I know his wife is the brainchild of this, and super kudos to you! You did a fantastic job, and I actually look forward to using your app in the store again. Not only did it highlight all the things to be cautious of, making it quick to spot, but I could read it. I’m getting older, and my eyes aren’t what they used to be! Some of those labels hurt and I don’t always bring reading glasses to a grocery store. So ty!!
