Based on 37 real App Store reviews, here's exactly what users wish Allergy Board apps would build.
Features users are literally asking for in their reviews, ranked by demand.
"it would be great if it had a latex allergy filter. It's so hard to find kitchens that don't use latex gloves"
"I'm highly allergic to corn and even though i tried to filter it so it would show me food I could eat, the whole app is designed around nut/ gluten/ milk allergies"
"there is no way to differentiate between your allergies and the allergies of a family member"
"Wanted to use to know allergy options my kids friends can have and the kids in the classrooms I room mom in"
"Their 'search engine' is not a search engine at all. It's an overblown Excel file the user submit places"
"They don't research the company to find out if food is really safe based on manufacturing and processing."
"they make it nearly impossible to delete. You have to fill out a form and they will tell you that they'll delete your account within 30 days"
Prioritized actions based on user demand and market opportunity.
32% of complaints cite missing local content. Relying on UGC from day one is Spokin's fatal flaw. Partner with chains or scrape menu data to provide immediate value.
27% report inaccurate recommendations showing their allergens. This is a trust-breaking bug. Proper filtering with verification is table stakes for this category.
Parents managing kids' allergies is a core use case. Enable switching between family member profiles to check 'can my kid eat this?' scenarios.
19% cite excessive data requirements and tedious setup. Get users to value fast - just select allergies and show nearby safe restaurants immediately.
Underserved segment explicitly requesting broader allergy support. Competing apps focus only on common allergens, creating a differentiation opportunity.
