UGH!!!

2f9b41d081d611e2b1d222000a1fb859_7Why do people leave such shit-tastic non-constructive reviews on my iPhone app on iTunes?

I have NO idea what Anne with an E! is talking about in her review … and she gave me 1 star and didn’t even bother to get in touch with us about her issue.

It’s REALLY easy to get in touch with us. In fact there is contact info ON THE APP! 🙁

I know I sound like a whiny baby about this but I’m fine if you don’t like the app – you are entitled to your opinion – but this kind of review is just stupid. The worst part is that every 1 star review makes the app harder and harder to find when people are searching for vegan apps. 🙁

If you love the app – do me a solid and leave a nice review over at iTunes.

Raw Food Diets: What’s True, What’s Not?

Can we survive–and thrive–on a raw food diet? Why would anyone want to? Do our bodies need the enzymes from plant foods? Are cooked foods toxic? Is food combining important for optimal digestion and health? Should we be eating buckwheat greens, sprouted legumes, raw mushrooms, and seaweeds? What do we learn from the major scientific studies about the health benefits of a diet composed entirely, or mainly, or raw plant foods? For maximum benefit, must our diet be 100 percent raw? What does a nutritionally adequate raw food diet look like?

Tickets are available HERE.

iDrated

-1I just found a new iphone app that I LOVE called iDrated.

It keeps track of how much water you drink during the day and will send you a reminder to drink water.

Best of all it’s free.  🙂

I’ve never pee’d so much in my life. ha ha

Itunes App reviews

These reviews about my iphone app bum me out …
screen-capture-1Instead of writing a shitty review – I wish Tasha77 had contacted me (sarah@govegan.net) about the problem with watching video on the app. I had no idea that function was broken and I would have told her that actually the videos are not broken but that she needs to be near WiFi for them to work as they are hosted on the internet.

As for Nanjanmc review. WTF are they talking about??

Normally I don’t read reviews cause people on the interweb can be so cruel but in a moment of weakness I looked. We worked SO HARD on this app and now I’m sad. 🙁
