Glyx - Glycemic Load and Index

When searching there are numbers with red, yellow, green circles next to them. I can not figure out what those numbers represent as it is not GI or GL. What are they?

Completely in adequate. Under sweets they list five products including plum pudding. To get to their “full” list is $2.99.

Can’t see past magnesium in the minerals section

Most of the values for glycemic load are completely inaccurate and way too low. Do not trust this information.

Index numbers are wrong

I paid extra for premium version yet found this app and wasn’t very helpful. It didn’t have any of the foods I ate and searching was difficult.

If you want to quickly search for foods glycemic index or load, this is the best app I’ve found in the App Store. It has a nice user interface and plenty of data, if you buy the full list (Stop complaining about needing to buy something, there are people who need to make a living. Program your own app, if you think it needs to be free!) Now, There are a couple of improvements that could be made though, that’s why I don’t give it five stars. ◀️ Swipe left on an iPhone should return to the list, but it opens the menu (found out it works, but inconsistent.) 🈲 There are some issue with displaying the correct detail in the list, when deviating from the Settings default. For example, changing ordering from glycemic Index to load, or changing the base weight of products. When changing the base weight, the index is newly calculated, but the coloring is wrong (for example, load is now 13, but green instead of yellow). 📲 The app should be optimized for iPad as well.

Watermelon isn't on this list. But if you'll pay $1.99 you can find it. What bs.

Saw complaints about limited set of items, but I liked the UI, so I purchased the food list. The download took forever and appeared to not work. Finally did complete. Tried the “contact developer” link, but it’s a useless web page. Others complained about having to pay for data, but I prefer this model since I can see and evaluate UI before having to purchase. Other similar apps charge upfront, so you have to pay whether UI is good or not. Free apps that I tried were all too clunky - obvious why they are free. Food list also has issues. Items are too specific (crispbread with sesame and crispbread with linseed), and weird- raw chicken? Raw potatoes (But not baked or fried potatoes)? Raw rice? Dry pasta? I think most people eat these things cooked, so why include uncooked? Bottom line: Has its issues, but easily worth the $2.

Not even watermelon or popcorn made this teensy tiny list of foods available to look up. Waste of time.
