What Users Love
It’s actually pretty nice to know if something is legit or just expensive placebo garbage
It helps me figure out which ones are kinda overpriced for what they actually do
I just snap a pic and boom, I see what’s in it
It’s just easy to use and doesn't make me feel dumb for not understanding all the science words
Pain Points
False advertising!!! Should say up front that to test your supplements there WILL BE A CHARGE
I think the app should start with saying that there’s fingerprint scanning and payment required
Out of the 10 I have scanned 1 came up, all the others are NOT FOUND.
Doesn’t scan bar code. App does not recognize supplement brand name.
