Bad app
I tried to signup on this app but it keeps getting stuck while telling me how easy it is to “just snap a picture of my food” and it won’t go past that.
I guess I’ll never know if it’s an app that would be helpful although right now I’d have to say no…🫤

Seems great at first
When I first downloaded this as a team trying to track her calories make sure she’s eating healthy for her personal goals and not trying to lose any weight. This app made me wanna lose weight more but it’s constant pressuring for me to track what I’m eating and try to exercise and track what I weigh. I know it’s trying to track my calories but don’t turn on notifications or it’ll feel like you’re being stopped. Trust me on this.
Review
Was told a reminder would be sent before charges and it was not
works but sucks for weight gain
why would everything turn red when my goal is to gain weight and i eat over the “budget”?? it lowkey feels like it’s incentivizing me to eat less but that’s not my goal. i’ve been under every week which is the opposite of what i want.
kinda sucks
it’s too late to switch now but it’s literally makes u be vip for everything but advertising but it’s easy to use ig
Could be simpler to use.
People who like to spend a lot of time on their phones would love this app, but I find it difficult to use because of having to jump around various pages to change settings or add recipes. It could be more simple. I regret paying for it. I guess I just need simple. If you’re quite adept at maneuvering through complicated apps this would probably be great.
Good if you eat a lot of prepackaged foods
I paid for the premium subscription and it’s good for tracking hydration from water, exercise from various activities and macros to a very limited extent. If you input portion sizes from prepared foods in the database, e.g. a specific size tortilla with a specific measure of protein and a specific measure of premade name brand seasoning, it’s no problem and works great.
However, if you’re using a custom recipe which yields multiple servings, this app does not have an input for portions the recipe makes. That means you have to do the math for exactly how much of each ingredient is used in each portion yourself before you log the ingredients and turn it into a recipe. This is frankly unacceptable in an app that can cost a minimum of nearly $60 per year. I paid for an app which should be able to do that math for me easily
