This app is great, especially the reports. Two minor issues, 1. About 30% of time when it records your diet pick, it records wrong picked item. 2, more selection and put at top of lists single items or raw, such as when you want to just record an apple you have to search almost through whole list. Other then that I like it better then myfittness.
I am very happy with the app thus far; however when placing information into my diet after selecting the food item it failed and gave me a phone number to call. This problem goes away with high speed access I realized. When at the restaurant it failed and then at home it worked just fine. This happened twice under the same circumstances thus I can only deduce that this is a network connection issue.
It WAS a great app... I tracked my weight, diet, and activity all in one app. Now it just tracks weight... which is totally inadequate. NRmobile does that... I can write that one bit of info in a notebook. This went from a great app to something completely useless and extraneous. Thanks, but no thanks. I would recommend anyone considering downloading this app, don't bother.
I don't see how anyone can say it's still great. I have been using this app with great success, till the last update. At which point it stopped working on my android phone. The main part of counting calories is gone. When I do put in my weight it's gone the next day. I uninstalled and reinstall it hoping to fix things. No luck. Really hope it gets fixed soon. It was great, now, no good.
I think one thing that would really improve this app would be the ability to sync it with my fitbit or other such wearables? They don't track calorie intake but they can keep track of heart rate, steps, and sleep patterns, which are also important factors when trying to improve your overall health.
I would give it a higher rating...but when I had to get a new phone...the data didn't back up or transfer to my new phone. I didn't think it would be an issue since I had it syncd to Google fit on my old phone. I figured I would enable Google fit sync and my previous data would upload...but no...for some reason the Google fit sync toggle is grayed out and I can't enable that feature.
I hoped this would be helpful in tracking things like calorie intake. It seems broken. The only thing it lets me enter is water intake. I called support and they shuffled me to three different people (with wait times at each). The third person sent me back to the first number I called, so I gave up. I'll be deleting it and looking for something more useful.
Seems dated, but a great resource. The the YouTube video links are broken and no way to find the videos through YouTube itself. However it is loaded with lots of information and charts to educate and help you loose weight/eat better, workout, & improve overall health.
Was using the app and the upgrade has rendered it useless by taking away completely recording/documenting daily calorie intake. Like others have commented, i can record my daily weight, water intake and exercise in a simple journal app. I was looking forward to the update with all the notices being posted but sadly disappointed :(
The VA Move app has a great deal of access to help you manage your health. It has a parts wear you can keep track of your daily weight, physical activity and calorie intake by logging the foods you eat. It has guides that you can use to improve your health. I used it for 2 years. It helped to very much improve my health. UPDATE: They took away 2 of 3 reasons I used it. They removed the parts where you can keep track of physical activity and calorie intake. It is useless to me now.
Very disappointed and depressed I have been using this app for over a year. I have been very successful in tracking my calorie intake and my exercise. The ease of using this and the accountability factor in using this app has been so wonderful for me. That is all gone as of today (the update hit). This app is now worthless! What a shame and during such depressing times to take down something that was so meaningful to a veteran like myself. Shameful. I hope this is just a temporary glitch!
Like the app. One improvement you can look into, instead of entering the nutrition facts by hand. Come up with a way to scan the bar code of the product and have it done automatically. This would save a lot of time for the people using this app like me.
I like this app because it offers so much to help me manage my weight. But every time I try to enter a food that isn't listed the program crashes. It would also be very helpful if I could scan the label for store bought items. Can you please consider adding that?
I can't get past the welcome page. It give link to read licensing and privacy rules but that's it. Don't know how to get into the app.
The app kept crashing and it was difficult to add info to the pages. It could be useful, but it had too many bugs.
I uninstalled just got a new phone, since the update i can no longer pull any food calories up, tried reinstalling nothing, deleted, I hope you fix this, as the app has alot of features that are very helpful
I have tried to use this app several times and each time it has not worked. The help line is a joke and has no idea what they are doing. Honestly a waist of time. Needed to use this for the move program but sadly i have been unable to. Going back to using my underarm app.
New installations of the current version have no food database and, therefore, require every food to be entered. Also the activity data is now gone. This app is useless now.
The developers of this app have failed Veterans miserably. What once was a great app is now a piece of trash with the new update. How could you screw this up so bad? You should have left it alone. I will not recommend it to anyone. The Self-Management Modules are good. But rest of the app has been gutted. No one responds to your imput. Go to FATSECRET for a better app.
it has been great app to use I've came from a class 3 to get to class 1 obesity level. I have lost weight I completed the 19 week course and will start again.app always works for me.
very frustrating, always freezing, locking up on data entry and cannot open the second week of tutorials.
Well I looked at the reviews of this and it showed that you could check what you eat and track your diet as well as your weight that doesn't seem to be the case anymore so it doesn't really do anything for me I can use other devices for that so I'm going to uninstall
Currently I use another app that lets me input food by scanning the barcode. It's an excellent feature that this app could use. I'm happy to have this app too
Very nice app after you get update. Which took me about a month. Without update there's a problem making some custom foods. The new version is a piece of cr#p.
It would NOT work for me. I got as far as the weight chart and it froze up. I tried 4 times. Maybe my weight was to high.🤔
Was a great app until a week ago. Can only track weight and water. Will probably be looking for another app. Please consider reinstating the older version.
Was very excited to use this app which was recommended by my local VA but the app freezes at the start up screen (using One plus 6+ on android 9)
Android 9 Doesn't consistently get past the first page. Otherwise content id great.
Broken app, likely done by a government contractor that gave the project to a new software engineer intern and told them they had 3 weeks to throw something together, and then handed the final product off to someone in the government that lacked any of the requisite knowledge to QA it. Great example of government incompetency.
Don't bother! This is typical of government using low bid contractors. Full of fluff with the meat and potato stuff being cumbersome. I recently had to change phones. All data was lost AND the search function is not working. I would be better off spinning around in circles for the amount of time spent screwing around with this and entering data. This is no more than a calorie tracker with no cloud backup that I can find. Counting calories is obsolete!!!! I can't say enough bad things about this
