The app keeps crashing everytime I try to see how to prepare a certain food. Apparently it's part of the new update. You can't view anything in detail without making a profile. "Its to personalize an experience for your baby," they say. But You can't use any of the other options with out paying, so how can they personalize a searchable database?

So sorry about that, Kimberlee! We did experience a temporary tech hiccup, but all is well now. Please make sure you download the latest update from the Google Play Store and things will work smoothly again.

Overall I like the app, but I don't like that we can't add unique foods that don't already exist on the app. You can only add "other" once, and then it doesn't count in the total tally again after that. We're trying to do 100 before 1, and we have many foods under "other", but the app doesn't tally that so we have to go in every time to count the "other" category and add it to the final tally

Hi Monica! Yes, we totally hear you on this! This is a feature on our development roadmap that hopefully we will be able to add soon. 🤍

**update: there should also be an option for the user to send food item requests for ingredients not currently listed but a baby has already tried. It would help the company expand their database, especially with ethnic ingredients.** The app itself is good, but has some flaws, especially with categorizing allergens. I also think there should be an option to save articles we find interesting to look at again later since some articles have recipes.

Hi again! If you have served a food not yet in our database, you can log it using the "Other" entry if you are a paid subscriber. And always feel free to email [email protected] with any ideas for new database foods :)
