1/5Does not run
Too bad m, crashes on launch, really unstable, does not work .... developer needs to fix it

1/5Crashes
Crashes when I open. When I re-open it, it allows me to browse around for about a minute before it crashes again. Developer needs to fix, it’s unusable.

1/5App won’t launch
Used to love this app now it won’t even launch - tries then crashes.

5/5Nice work
This app is so useful. Has a good size database with a hard to find or expensive ingredients. Worth the $0.99 avoid the google search. The only negative is the gluten free section... It's more geared towards giving definitions and gluten filled substitutes.... Would be nice if there were more gluten free to gluten free substitute recommendations. Otherwise a perfect app.
