★★★★ Glaucia Carrano Brown 5/9/2026
can't login or creaye an account. contradictory validation feedback related to email and password.
★★★★ Miriam G 5/5/2026 v4.57
they charged me twice for my membership. thieves
★★★★ Jo Colosimo 5/5/2026
App wouldn't let me create an account because it doesn't recognize my first name because it's only two letters. Do better.
★★★★ Shahan Shah 5/4/2026 v4.57
quite useless unless you're a paid member I guess. Can't pay for something before knowing it works, didn't get that experience at all.
★★★★ Dustin Fistick 5/3/2026 v4.57
It gave bread with a Prop65 cancer warning for the chemical acrylamide a score of 100/100. This app is a scam
★★★★ Daniel Repullo Garcia 5/3/2026 v4.57
Obviously owned by someone associated with certain brands. Disappointed so many people will believe the claims about brands that have great reputation and that actually are clinically and dermatologically tested. Makes no sense to me people will believe this.
★★★★ Karlo Ugrin 5/1/2026 v4.57
Can't search for anything unless you pay.
★★★★ I M 4/28/2026 v4.56.2
why is signing-in required? should be optional not mandatory. no thanks I'm uninstalling it. response to review reply: thanks for that info but that doesn't justify making sign-in required.
★★★★ GAYLE DICK 4/24/2026 v4.56.2
app will not open
★★★★ Sarah Rose 4/24/2026 v4.56.2
Scam, full app use requires a membership and getting others to download the app.
★★★★★ Trudy Conway 5/4/2026 v4.55.3
I wouldn't mind paying (the pay-what-you-want is nice) but I'd like a trial first to see how useful the app is for me. Very annoying.
★★★★★ Charlene 5/2/2026 v4.57
Great app, except the recommendations for alternative items when a product is rated, poorly, are usually not even close to the same kind of product. For example, I scanned coconut wafer cookies, and the only alternative Yuka gave me was for ice cream cones. I do not want ice cream cones. I want to know a better alternative to these particular cookies. Another example is CeraVe lotion. That item was rated poor, but the only alternative was for Aveeno Oatmeal lotion. Not the same product at all!!
★★★★★ Sophie Stewart 4/28/2026 v4.57
apparently everything I own causes cancer?
★★★★★ Craig Parsons 4/24/2026 v4.56.2
Diabetics be weary, i use this and scanned grape nuts cereal. said low sugar. my blood sugar spike was over 150 mg/dl
★★★★★ Ilya 4/24/2026 v4.57
Great app as far as information but man it can be slow. Isn't the database local? Sometimes it takes 30-T40 seconds for a result to appear. Pixel 10 Pro XL...latest phone and OS.
