Description

Researchers at Monash University have developed the low FODMAP diet and a corresponding app to assist in the management of gastrointestinal symptoms associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The Monash University FODMAP diet works by swapping foods high in fermentable carbohydrates (FODMAPs), with low FODMAP alternatives. Around 75% of people with IBS experience symptom relief on a low FODMAP diet. The app comes directly from the research team at Monash and includes the following: - General information about the FODMAP diet and IBS. - Easy to understand tutorials to guide you through the app and the 3-Step FODMAP diet. - A Food Guide detailing the FODMAP content for hundreds of foods using a simple 'traffic light system'. - A list of branded products that have been certified by Monash as low FODMAP. - A collection of over 70 nutritious, low FODMAP recipes. - Functions that allow you to create your own shopping list and add notes to individual foods - A Diary that enables you to record food eaten, IBS symptoms, bowel habits and stress levels. The Diary will also guide you through step 2 of the diet - FODMAP reintroduction. - The ability to adjust units of measurement (metric or imperial) and activate colour blindness assistance.

  • Bad Update Wipes Data

    I installed the latest update and now all data from my diary is gone. I cannot recommend this app when it is built that poorly, and when the developers in charge don’t do any verification that the update they’re about to apply won’t break existing features. Bad software design. The design changes to the app aren’t good either, the latest updates have been a downgrade in every way.

    Not nearly enough recipes, hard to navigate, and the recipes that they do have were still quite problematic. Definitely do not waste your money, a massive disappointment of an app

  • Beware new update

    I just updated the app and found that it erased ALL of my diary entries. I’ve been tracking for a long time so this is a big loss of data for me. I’ll no longer use this app for tracking as it’s no longer reliable and I’m very disappointed considering this is a paid app. Just wow…

  • Pointless, frustrating UI changes in 4.0.2

    What was the goal of changing the Diary add record / create report AND the save / cancel buttons? That change has reversed the positions of both functions, which means anyone who had been using the app and has muscle memory for making entries is now automatically touching the wrong buttons every single time they want to add to the diary. Was the point to frustrate existing users? Well, you’ve succeeded.

  • All data erased with last update!

    I have been diligently recording my diet and symptoms for 2 months. This morning, I decided to update the app and now ALL of that data is gone! So much work vanished in an instant. Up until today, I would have given the app a 4 star rating. I have appreciated the food guide, recipes, and ease with which to track everything. It wasn’t perfect—but it was a great resource. However losing 2 months worth of valuable data is unpardonable.

  • Now useless

    The changes make the app useless for me. Was able to see whole day’s activity and look at other days easily. Now having to scroll to see day’s data. Boo.

    This app is great and makes it easy to track and find food. However, the new update is not good. The diary is too small and the reintroduction items are cut off and hard to use. The previous diary format was way better. Disappointed

  • Not very functional

    The food list isn’t very well organized, the red/yellow/green lights aren’t in order, so it will show you the values randomly. Has really strange ranges too, for something like cornichons it will tell you 1.76oz is fine, then 17.07oz is in the yellow zone. I could see someone eating like 3oz of them, but who is eating almost a pound? Why not represent this in a more simplistic way. Finally, when you click “start the diet”, it just tells you what the diet is like, no more information than what you could find on Google, it doesn’t actually start anything for you. No calendar, nothing, you need to go find a dietitian to do it for you.

  • Extremely helpful, love it!

    I love your app for recording the daily details. However, sometimes I am using my iPhone and other times my iPad. I have the app on both devices, but they do not talk to each other, entering a meal on my ipad doesn’t convey to my iPhone.

  • Simple food list needed

    The food lists include packaged processed foods (from other countries despite using the country filter). It’s cumbersome to have to weed through all this just to try to find something like steel cut oats which are not listed.
