Description
The Maryland WIC Program is a supplemental nutrition program for women, infants and children under age 5.
WIC is a federally funded program that provides healthy supplemental foods and nutrition counseling for pregnant women, new mothers, infants and children under age five. The program has an extraordinary 35-year record of preventing children's health problems and improving their long-term health, growth and development. WIC serves over 9.1 million women, infants and children through over 10,000 clinics nationwide.
The Maryland WIC Mobile App will give WIC participants the opportunity to view upcoming appointments, view food benefits that have been issued to them in the clinic, scan UPCs while shopping at the store to see if the UPC is a WIC Approved item or not, and provide information on locations of WIC Stores and WIC Clinics across the State of Maryland.
The goal of the Maryland WIC Mobile App is to give participants all the information they need at their fingertips to make their shopping experience fun and easy.

Ratings and Reviews
Great App!
WIC App is the definition of useful. Benefits are shown in picture form along with the amount left to use in number form. Tapping on a benefit picture takes you to an explanation of the benefit, allowable purchases (meaning which brands you can buy) and stores that accept WIC. With current and future benefit balance available anytime just by logging in, the app takes the hassle out of calling, going online or reviewing receipts to manage benefit balances.
The app also allows you to check when your next WIC appointment is scheduled. We’ve been receiving WIC for four years now and it has been a life saver for us. Staff at all locations are supportive, friendly and patient. The staff treat WIC clientele with respect and genuine care.
This app is one of the ways WIC makes eating healthy on smaller incomes a reality for families. Thank you to WIC and the app developers for supporting families.
If the app had a way to notify us of farmers market benefit availability I would be even more satisfied.
Great app
Before I downloaded the app I always have problem with the food items and what is approved by WIC and what is not but since I have downloaded and using the app, it’s been so helpful and I even check my next appointment. So if you have not download the app you’re missing alot
Easy to use but still some issues
Very easy to use and I enjoy how it displays benefits. There are some discrepancies however in the approved items. I will scan an item and it will show it’s not approved when it really is and vice versa. I also look at the list of things approved under each section and while it says the item is approved, it’s not when I go to the register.
