I hadn't used the app for a long while and I found it only allowed scanning products without providing recommendations so I purchased but it's what you're willing to pay which is very kind of them to offer. I can now search for food and health / hygiene products that aren't bad or toxic. I look forward to the time when they expand to household cleaners and bug sprays. Possibly pharmaceuticals someday. Please Yuka, go Pharma. However that would work.

I've been using this for over a year now. It has worked flawlessly, never had a glitch. The information is broad and only rarely have I scanned something that it did not recognize. You then have the option of adding it for review. My two favorite things are that it gives very in-depth details to explain the ratings (especially if they're bad), and it doesn't stop there...it actually provider healthier alternatives! That is wonderful!

I love this app. It's amazing, so informative. Unbiased information. Every item is looked into fully. It gives the Negatives and positives of the product ingredients. The number of and level of risks and explains what they do to your health scientifically. Everything is backed by scientific facts and references are provided. It also gives alternatives to the similar type product but with healthier ingredients. It also now assists you in reporting products that need some additives taken out.

Scanning over the counter products is very informative. It's nice to know what you're putting into and on your body.

ease of use and like seeing alternatives, additives and why they are bad, and rankings. I don't always agree with the reasoning (e.g too much saturated fat, etc) but make my choices on the ingredients whether it's organic and what the additives are. good to se on the go. I just added my first product and the step by step was so easy: take pics of the front office table, nutrition chart and ingredients and it's almost instantly available! cool!
