This app requires a paid subscription, it’s cheap enough so I tried it. For a month straight it said the exact same thing every single time I scanned starter vs discard jar (they look completely different on top). Every loaf was the same score and description. I believe someone started the app as a money grab with little to no knowledge regarding sourdough. Disappointing to say the least, waste of money to say the most. Use google images for free or chat got FOR FREE

The app cool but if you have celiac’s, theres no gluten free settings in the scan section to give you the fully complete diagnosis of your own gf sourdough starter. The app is still helpful but I kinda feel like I wasted my money since I got the app to help me with my first starter in the first place to see if I’m doing ok with it.

I scanned 3 different moldy starters and it rated 2 of them pretty high and the one that it rated low was only from a lack of visible bubbles. All 3 were different starters from different people and clear pictures.

I’ve been looking for an app like this. Finally landed on this one and sticking with it. Sourdough is a science and an art. This helps so much

And it’s really fun to use. Been a useful addition to my repertoire

You get one single scan, everything else is locked behind paywalls. The feedback would be great if I could actually compare the before/after.

I hate paying for apps. I never know if they will work as advertised but this one does. I’ve been trying in vain to make sourdough. Not knowing why my bread wasn’t coming out correctly. This app helped me with my starter and with the recipes I’ve been successful everytime I’ve used this app. I’m over the moon.

I understand that in 2025 everything is subscription based now but for an app that is just supposed to tell me if my starter is alive or not is kind of ridiculous. I should t have to pay for taking a picture of something.. I can just as easily look it up online. If the subscription portion was tied to being able to utilize the journal or other parts of the app I could understand that.. but the whole point of the app (at least to my knowledge) is to be able to scan your starter and that’s it. It should be free because there are a ton of free apps that let you scan all types of things without subscribing.

I was excited about this app and scanned my starter not realizing I only get 1 free scan. How do I know if I want to pay for it if that’s all I get to try. Pretty disappointed!

The idea is interesting, but there’s no free trial. At least a few days of free trial would be great to see how the app works. And without paid subscription the app allows you to upload only one photo. lol
