Every 1-2★ review we fetched. Use the copy button to grab them all for your own analysis (paste into ChatGPT/Claude with a prompt like "summarize core user problems, group by theme, ignore bugs, focus on missing features").
It was rendering improperly by puting Text over the meal input. Then no matter what I did it kept glitching and jumping to the pay $7.99. Obviously not a free app. A 7-day trial, glitchy app.
This app might have been nice but I couldn't enter a food and couldn't see a search bar. The text and labels were all superimposed over each other.
started out great if a little flawed (limited food choices, UI was kind of a struggle) but it was cheap and did it's job: it taught me how to calculate the calories of a workout and how much water I need. Now it absolutely will not load anything EVEN THO I PAID MONEY - for basically a black screen. i had faith it was just a small company trying to get more successful but this just another rug pull. Now that I know the skills it offers I will NOT be giving these people anymore money
literally cannot get on the app, it doesn't work at all
Unable to search for foods.
Cant get pass the welcome page.
It doesn't allow me to type anything in the foods search bar, therefore it's useless
Really awful UI, no ability to search, horrible app.
Buttons are WAY too close to search bar, impossible to type anything, 1/5 until fixed
Won't let me type in foods in the app. Need to make app compatible with the newer phones.
I kept getting stuck in the welcome thing. I hate life 💔
Tried to open it with the guest option to actually try it, and it took me to a completely blank screen that I can't even back out of. Guess I will forget about this potentially useful app.
Ugly and hasn't Google Fit connection
Terrible app. Database is extremely limited. Cant even find the basic arrowroot biscuits I ate on this app. Whats the point if most foods you eat cant be found to enter. Moreover the plate stopped increasing as I increased my portions so the visual appeal aspect is gone. They insinuate they are better than a well known competitor...you are not. 🙄🙄🙄
Not working since the last update. Can't even search food options anymore
Always goes to welcome page when I search a product.
I would love to change my rating, but the app is stuck on the welcome page. My daughter is using and loving the app on her iPhone, but the app will not open for me. I hope someone can help me resolve this so that I may change rating For now, the app is useless and I am disappointed because I really wanted to use this app
Wants financial details from the start Unfortunately to access the 7 days trial you must supply your payment information. I will not do this for any app, so this developer just harvested my personal information. Very poor.
Too many ads
Good idea but the search engine is really bad...it often doesn't find things that are actually there, has very bad logic. Also, plenty of common things to eat aren't there, like short grain brown rice. I'll be using another app because speed is of the essence, and the poor search function hobbles Figwee, makes it slow and cumbersome. Not only that but the first things it often comes up with are not the whole foods, but processing sugary versions of them
Could be great if the buttons weren't so big and you would accidentally click on them all the time
