Pros and cons of Erntefrisch app for iPhone and iPad
Erntefrisch app good for
The app does what it says. It groups more than fruits & veggies. It tells whats in season & when the season starts. Gives details on some produce. Gave 4 stars because it should have capability to identify produce by using camera since theyre charging for the app.
I love this app. There isnt a fruit, veggie, herb, flower, etc that I cant find detailed info on. LOVE IT. thx
This is a great app but it would be AWESOME if it included details on how to pick ripe fruits/veggies rather than just a description. More like the other apps that do this.
I really like the design style of this app. Its unique and fits the pupose of the app very well. I would like a little better location selection. When I had it auto locate, it said I was in the Alaska region. I am in Oregon which is a considerable distance away.
It would be very cool to have a simple map and be able to select the current state that I am in. Then additionally select any or all bordering states. This would help clear up which foods are local.
Thanks for the great app and look forward to future updates.
Is the climate/growing seasons in Wisconsin really that similar to the one in Maine? It needs smaller regions. Maybe by state. Otherwise, a beautiful and handy app
Some bad moments
Im maybe one of the few english speaking people using this program and it is very handy...
though I find very annoying that in some parts its mixed with some german. I wouldnt mind it at all if I only spoke any, but it turns out that I feel like I spent money on an app I can half understand. Itd be really cool to have some sort of update with a complete english interface.
This app has some amazing information. It lists produce in season. It tells you about local
Farmers Markets. My favorite part is it has a list of all types of produce and tells you a bit about each item.
This app does bassically nothing. The only good thing is the variety of produce on its list. But the information provided is worthless. It does tell you when each thing is in season locally or can be imported. But the market finder doesnt even work. From LA to NY no markets appear. I emailed this company numerous times and I got an automated message every time. BOGUS!
Their definition of "local" allows things from Florida to be seen as "local" to Tennessee!!!
