I would like to rate this app higher because of the nice and simple UI, but I feel like I just threw away my money. An article claimed it had a good food database when it doesn't (find another API and let the community add when scanning barcodes). The barcode and nutrition label scanner is garbage and doesn't give you the right numbers. You can manually fix them, but it's annoying. I'm a product designer and former dev. If you can fix the bugs, I'll come back to rate higher.
Do not buy!!! While you can set daily targets for macros, the food selection is horrible! It pulls in serving size of 1g??? You have to edit EVERY food item, half the time changes don't save so you have to edit them again. The font is WAY too small in the list of food when you search, you can't even zoom in to try to read it. My fitness pal, is so much easier, you have to change you macros each day but that's easier than entering nutrition info and it's free
Disappointed with this app unfortunately. I agree with the issues this app has that others have left in reviews as well. In addition the scan barcode doesn't work well, if it all. When it does it gets the calories wrong every single time and you have to end up editing the information anyway. It's got weird glitches and just overall a tedious app to use when you're trying to log everything in multiple times a day. I wish I could get a refund unfortunately as I've only been using it for 3 days.
it's good bc it calculates your macros, but when you barcode scan food, everything is wrong and you have to manually adjust it. Then, when you try to manually adjust, it doesn't save. I tried editing my oatmeal 5 times in a row, I refreshed the app, closed out of the app completely and tried again, nothing. it would not save the correct macros. not worth the $3.
Once you get the hang of it, this app is GREAT! I really don't understand what others are complaining about, adding your own custon entries is way better than using generic ones.
Database for food is ridiculous. There isn't even a list for coffee? Come on. Waste of money. Use My Fitness Pal. It is free and the database is huge.
This is the hardest app to use. Hard to log what you eat and bar codes are wrong and the database is not inclusive of what should be easy to find items and brands
The search feature is very hard to work with. I've used multiple calorie counting apps before and this is the most frustrating one to use. Do not reccomend!
Database is very small & unreliable. The defense/excuse for it is "just make your own entries!" Only helpful if you have a LOT of free time/only eat the same few things. The search function is awful. Instead of listing potential matches by relevance, it lists anything that matches maybe 1 word in your search and organizes the list by, well I haven't been able to figure that out. & there is NO sort option. For an app you pay for, and then have to pay even more to use on the web, it is not good.
It's not great there are better apps out there and it changes the calories that you input.
This app is very hard to use and not user friendly! I'm use to my fitness pal that is very simple
Pretty terrible! Search function is useless even if you enable global and set to verified only. Names seemed to be shortened with no standard format like most other require for uniformity. Seems you can't change the units for a food from what it has already for a serving size. All around very inflexible vs others. Every year I try some competitors to see if I'm still using the best app, I am by a lot! Weird because a lot of pro's allegedly like this one, I can't even remotely figure out why.
I find other macro trackers much easier to use. This one isn't as user friendly.
This app works great, and this program has helped me lose over 2 pounds in less than 1 week. Would be awesome if they added the option for dark theme on Android! -update- Still looking for dark mode. One glitch is when you scan a barcode that isn't in the system, and if asks if you want to manually add, it does not save the information. Has happened to me multiple times.
It great. Only used it for a week and I am learning a ton of things on how food and the body work together. How some "normal" foods are just horrible for you. Only 4 stars because sometimes I have to take a pic of the nutrition facts and it fills it out wrong. There are 20 different eggs to choose from. Then sometimes when entering something the keyboard disappears. But still overall very good app....
This app is my best friend. I hate reading even when I see small words but I gave it a try and was able to wing it. My MACRO + is so easy to use. I love the barcode scanner, I use it and it uploads the three macronutrients. If it doesn't have the correct amount, I can edit the info and correct it myself, than save. Whatever you previously searched or used, it automatically syncs in the recent tabs and make it easier to select for the next day instead of searching it. Love it!
I've been using MFP since March and although there are some annoying things with that app - I've liked it. The whole reason I made the switch is that is supposed to be more accurate, but that so far has not been true. I've had to edit almost everything today to make it match the label. The other frustrating thing is the unit on measurement is really hard to adjust for weight for a lot of things. I want to be the most accurate and weigh everything, but it's not an easy switch with this app. 😔
So far I really like it. It's a little bit of a pain to make sure everything is accurate, because it seems to be searching what other users have put in as opposed to an actual database of accurate info from restaurants at least. But I actually really like the interface, and using split screen on your phone to Google your food and enter it in makes your life easier! I think this app is really gonna help my nutrition long term!
Waste of money. This is too complicated. It doesn't need to be. Visually it's not that great either. Switches to macros app, the one with the white apple logo and it's much more easier and free. I tracked side by side for a week and macros was quicker and the numbers all matched the same. Everyone said this was a more accurate app and it's basically the same, just a worse lay out and more complicated to use.
Perfect app for pre contest. All the core features you need are here. The ability to do grams, group copy meals/days, quick add macros without formally making a meal, etc. The scanner could be a little better as I don't know how it comes up with serving sizes that don't match the label. Additionally, the database of foods is a little weak but once you have all your regular foods in the app, it's so simple and effective to use. Feels like an app that was actually made by someone who competes.
Overall I like the app so far. But there's some big hangups. My biggest issue is with the search algorithm. I eat mostly whole, single ingredient foods. They are almost impossible to find in the search. You'd expect when you search for "brown sugar" that the top result would be "brown sugar" but instead there's pages and pages of packaged foods which include brown sugar in the name. Same problem with whole milk. Also, it seem to doesn't tie into other apps like fitbit, or my scale.
I have been using this app since Oct 2019 and I will always recommend it! It's great and although there are a few things here and there over the years that were inconvenient, I mentioned the issues and they were fixed! Overall, the accuracy of the app cannot be beat! There is a slight learning curve but be patient and ALWAYS enter your own info. You can't trust others to do things correctly in any app. Also, the cals change because the app does the math for you according to F/C/P.
