not free
I use to love this app. The database it had for recipes was so helpful and easy to find and swap out meals you didnt want for something else. Since the update, they limit meals you have access to. They now require coins that you use for the app to populate other meals to change something you don't want but once you redeem them, you have to buy more. I ended up canceling my subscription because why pay a monthly fee then have to buy coins for recipes that I once had access to?? Dumb AF!
Every food tracker I come across that makes me fill out a bunch of information to create a profile. Then hits me with it isnt free and its a free trial. I'm going to setence you all to 1 star prison. All these apps make you fill out copious amounts of irrelevant information. NEWS FLASH MOST PEOPLE JUST WANT TO TRACK THEIR CURRENT PLANNED DIET. I DON'T WANT DUMB AI CURATED NUTRITION PLAN! I WANTED BASICALLY A PRETTY CONVENIENT EXCEL SHEET TO TRACK MY DIET. now I have to AI my own
no free option, paid only
Horrible database! Completely broken app. This app is an absolute joke. The food database is completely broken and full of massive calculation errors. It counted 30 grams of watermelon as 110 calories (it's actually 9!) and distorted my cooking oil weights so badly that a single breakfast showed over 1,200 calories. It is impossible to track food accurately with this tracker. Deleted immediately. Avoid it!
it's not free app
no free options
Can't even save a meal without premium. Takes you through a ton of prompts and sign up before seeing that you can't do anything without premium.
Do NOT download this app. I got it and clicked individual plan, but I have the family membership instead somehow. Once I figured this out, I tried canceling my subscription, but it isn't allowing me to do so. So now, as an individual person, the only person using this app in my family, I have to pay 50-60 bucks for absolutely NOTHING. What a waste. I will not be recommending this app. It just wants your money.
app should tell you how much it is before you even start going through the process not getting to the end and then it say $60 a year
ypu have to pay for everything, and it just gives standard macros even if you used something with diffrent macros (ex. Milk, mine is 80cal 13 protein, the app logges 130 cals) you cant change it or alter and fance stuff you have to pay. honestly, I just needed my notes app
extremely misleading. was charged 96 all at once thought it was 8.99 monthly. did not get any refunds.
Decent user interface, not a lot of food in the current database so be ready to enter your meals. The photo scan didn't work, it gets stuck at 99% analyzing. I emailed the developer for a refund and haven't heard back. I recommend Foodvisor or MyFitnessPal over this.
Complete garbage. It claims to have a free version but you can't do anything unless you pay and every button prompts you to subscribe to their premium. If you want to overpay for something as simple as tracking calories then this app is for you! Otherwise look elsewhere.
another cash grab that struggles to do the simple things. I was looking for an app where I can manually log my foods/calories. Apparently you need a paid subscription to change the amount of calories in the foods you want to log otherwise you need you stick with their suggestion. Also, I'm unable to change my BMR that they suggested I have even though Ive spent money to have my BMR tested and theyre just guessing. The only way to correct it is......drum roll......... a paid subscription....
requires you to pick available foods, many of which I don't have, and requires me to lie. this app sucks.
no option for dietary requirements to be considered when signing up. also "muscle gain" as the only "weight gain" option is not fair. plain "weight gain" should be an option as well as "vegan" "vegetarian" etc.
Froze on meal planning page
esta bien para trackear tus alimentos, pero se nota que esto está programado con IA, tiene varios bugs bastante molestos al momento de crear recetas y al hacer la planeación de alimentos Únicamente me arrepiento de haber gastado tanto en la versión anual, siendo honesto, me hubiera servido igual o mejor un excel que hubiera hecho yo mismo si hubiera sabido cómo es la app
Updating my review from 5 stars. The new update forces you to use an AI to plan weekly meals. You can only use the AI once before having to pay for tokens essentially adding a second subscription. This essentially removes the meal planning part of the app making it significantly less useful. I'll be cancelling my membership unless I'm able to create meal plans without AI
Unless you're willing to pay their premium it's just too much "premium" promotion around the app. It messes with their aesthetic.
I wanted an app to track my intake. Fitia makes you select either "I need a meal plan." or "I need to track my foods. I know what to eat." It does not matter, they force you to select your foods and give you meal suggestions. I could not simply track my intake, instead I had to sort through meal suggestions, protein specs, varied menu etc.
Way too complicated for a simple calorie tracker. Not only that, but you have to pay to get all the features! it won't even recognize a simple photo or a list of foods. At least the searchbar for in putting your own foods is really specific so those absolute "health grinders" can be precise to the molecular level of whatever they consume.
It should tell you right away that there is no free option to use this app. Other reviews started they were free users without premium features, so I assumed there was a completely free option then paid/premium options but no it's a three day free trial then they charge $20 each month which is ridiculous. I gave it two stars because it does look like a well designed app and the interface was easy and sleek.
