Best vegan apps for iOS & Android

Since most apps are available for both platforms, we will discuss them first. So, let’s see the most amazing apps for vegans on both Google Play and App Store.

GoNutss – The Vegan Translator

GoNutss is a comprehensive resource designed to help you to find replacements for non-vegan foods. It features ingredients, recipes and products that will easily guide you in the transition to a vegan diet. The creators of GoNutss have been vegan for several years and now they are sharing their experience with other vegans and people who are interested in adopting a plant-based diet. This practical vegan translator allows you to find vegan alternatives to any food and it offers practical calculators to find protein sources and the best vegan options for baking. GoNutss is free, easy to use and it contains hundreds of products and delicious recipes.

Happy Cow

This app is very popular amongst vegans. The app is a very well-designed and smart restaurant guide that will let users know about the best places to eat delicious vegan food. The app is available in the free and full version, and you will have the chance to use filters, post your reviews and images, share locations and other useful information with friends, and even check if the restaurant is open when you are hungry (available in the full version).

With the latest updates, the app is available in multiple languages and also offers information on gluten-free and organic locations.

Is It Vegan

While a vegan restaurant guide is extremely useful, an app that lets you know if the food you buy from the store is vegan must also be in your phone. This app is great for checking out packaged food, where you don’t know for sure if all the listed ingredients are safe to eat.

To check up a product, you can either scan the barcode of the item or do a manual check. The app will tell you if it’s vegan or not. However, keep in mind that the database is not too extensive, so there are products the app doesn’t know.

Cruelty Free

Being vegan is not just about food, it’s a lifestyle! That’s why it’s important to make sure everything you wear and use in your day-to-day life is cruelty-free, and no animal had to suffer for it.

This app lists over 200 US and Canadian companies that don’t use animals to test their products. The list is continuously updated, and you can even scan products to see if they are cruelty-free.

Food Monster

This is the modern version of your grandma’s cookbook, only in vegan form! The app comes in 2 versions: free and paid, but both are just as great. The free version gives you instant access to 500 free vegan recipes. When you get bored of these, you have the paid version which will unlock another 5000 recipes plus ten new recipes each day.

With this app, you’ll never get bored with your diet again!

Vegan Recipes and Nutrition

Yes, another app with vegan recipes, but don’t pout! This app has something more than just recipes and indications on how to make them.

First, you get nutritional values for every meal. This way, you’ll know exactly how many calories you eat and you can select the type of diet you are following. Second, you can search recipes according to what you want to eat. Their “hungry for” section is quite elaborate, and there are tons of vegan recipes you didn’t even know existed.

Do eat raw

A fantastic app for raw vegans and for those who want to add a bit of extra crunch in their diet! Being a raw vegan is even a bigger challenge, and this app comes to help you with over 300 delicious recipes and detailed instructions.

There is a joyful team maintaining the app, and they understand the need for information in the vegan world. So, they included anything from dressings for salads to desserts and even beverages to help the regular raw vegan go through the day.

The app works just as well offline, and you can also rate recipes, leave your impressions and your pictures.

Forks Over Knives

If you’ve seen the movie, then it’s no use to tell you that this app is great; you already know that. For the rest of the world, you should know that professional chefs developed all the recipes in this app. So you’re not just eating healthy, you will also learn the very basic principles of vegan cuisine the way professionals see it.

Vegaholic

Did you know that not all alcoholic products are vegan-friendly? Of course, there are the obvious ones that involve milk and even egg whites, but with some, you don’t know until you look it up. For instance, there are some beers, wines, and liquors that are not 100% animal-free.

This app contains a comprehensive list of beers, wines, and liquors and you can see if your favorite alcoholic beverage is vegan or not.

This way, you can make sure that the day-after hangover was achieved without overstepping any vegan rules.

21-Day Vegan Kickstart

If you just took the decision of becoming a vegan or a vegetarian, this app will help you stick to it. For 21 days (that’s how long it takes to make a habit), you will get advice on planning your meals and receive daily tips about what it means to be a vegan. The app is great in providing you with simple vegan recipes. This way you learn how to cook for yourself and how to keep a healthy protein intake even though you are not eating animal products.

Green Kitchen – healthy vegetarian recipes

This is one of the most attractive healthy vegetarian recipes apps in the market! However, it’s not just about the gorgeous images; it’s also about the delicious recipes.  Of course, this app is also great for regular users who simply want more greens in their diet.

The database is rich in recipes with natural ingredients and as less gluten and sugar as possible. The instructions are detailed, and the fantastic images will make your mouth water in a couple of seconds.

The best part is that this app is also available on Apple Watch. This means you won’t have to take the iPad in the kitchen anymore; you’ll be able to follow the recipe on your watch.
