Terms of use

Last updated 21 October 2026

These terms apply when you use the Fodmi iPhone app or this website. Fodmi is run by Llorenç Bauza (“we”, “us”). By downloading or using Fodmi you agree to them. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the app.

Fodmi is not medical advice

Fodmi estimates FODMAP content from published food composition data. It is not medical advice and has not been reviewed by a dietitian. It doesn’t diagnose, treat or prevent any condition. Talk to a doctor before changing your diet or if your symptoms change, and work with a dietitian for a guided low FODMAP diet. Read the full medical disclaimer.

Who can use Fodmi

You must be at least 16 to use Fodmi. You’re responsible for keeping your iPhone secure, because your journal is stored on it.

Subscriptions

Fodmi is free to download. Some features need a paid subscription, bought through Apple’s App Store.

• The App Store shows the price and billing period before you confirm.
• If an offer includes a free trial, you’ll be charged when it ends unless you cancel at least 24 hours before.
• Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel. You can cancel any time in your Apple ID settings. Cancelling stops the next renewal; you keep access until the end of the period you’ve paid for.
• Payments and refunds are handled by Apple under its terms. To request a refund, go to reportaproblem.apple.com.

Your content

The meals, photos, notes and check-ins you add are yours. You give us permission to process meal photos and descriptions only to provide the analysis you ask for, as described in the privacy policy. Don’t upload content that isn’t yours to share or that is unlawful.

Acceptable use

Don’t misuse Fodmi. That includes trying to access our server or other people’s data without permission, interfering with the service, scraping our food database, reverse engineering the app where the law doesn’t allow it, or using Fodmi to build a competing product.

Food data and accuracy

FODMAP estimates come from published laboratory studies, USDA FoodData Central and national food composition tables, combined with published cut-off values. Food composition varies by variety, ripeness, recipe and preparation, and photo recognition can be wrong. Always check what Fodmi identified, and treat its results as a guide rather than a guarantee. Sources are credited in the app.

Our intellectual property

The Fodmi app, name, mascot, design and website are ours. You may use the app for your own personal, non-commercial use. Food composition data from third parties remains under its original licence.

Availability and changes

We work to keep Fodmi running, but we can’t promise it will always be available or error-free. We may add, change or remove features. If we make important changes to these terms, we’ll update the date at the top and, where appropriate, tell you in the app.

Liability

To the extent the law allows, Fodmi is provided “as is”, and we aren’t liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for decisions you make about your diet or health based on the app. Our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid for Fodmi in the 12 months before the claim. Nothing in these terms limits liability that can’t be limited by law, or your statutory rights as a consumer.

Ending use

You can stop using Fodmi at any time by deleting the app and cancelling any subscription. We may suspend access if you break these terms.

Apple

These terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies to your use of the app. Apple has no obligation to provide support for Fodmi and isn’t responsible for claims about it.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the country where we are established. If you’re a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live, and you can bring a claim in your local courts.
