Extremely helpful and easy

I’ve been using this app for probably 10 years. It’s easy to use, greatly helpful in keeping track of history and progress, and keeps me tracking to my goal. My one piece of feedback is the daily cheer popup. I don’t want or need it. If I skip a day, I don’t need the streak counter to start over and pop up a screen for the next 2 weeks. It’s maddening. Give me the option to turn that thing off!

Good functionality, terrible UI

I really want to like this app. Functionally, it tracks the things I want to track and is reasonably easy to enter the information. Where it’s really lacking is in the ability to get the user interface out of the way of data entry. As an example, there’s no way to turn off the ridiculous Rah Rah messages entry when you first enter a meal for the day. It’s incredibly frustrating to be trying to quickly enter a meal and have to wait several seconds for the “cheering” dialog to...

Would like to have

It would be nice to have user setting options to be able to disable the pop up alerts, such as the food streak and food logged. For the food logged, the visual round blue checkmark after selecting the item is sufficient. The food logged popup after the blue checkmark is a nuisance, especially when you want to quickly add other items below the item you just selected. Otherwise, at first the diary makeover was against the grain, but after accepting the changes the app is overa...

Really poor functionality

This app is not good, I only use it because I’ve been using it for so long all my data is in here. They change the app layout every month when you finally get used to it, and its incredibly annoying to scroll through and figure everything out again. Sometimes it will log me out even though I’ve never once tried to log out. The ads and also streak reminders and all the inane popups are incredibly annoying. The only good thing about it is being able to scan barcodes.

Best calorie counter out there

Have used this on and off over the years, but got back into it after some gastric issues which required me to be careful what I eat and ensure I get enough calories. Hands down, Premium+ is worth the money. The meal planner is WONDERFUL. It works in with what is realistic in terms of budget and preferences, I simply love the way the grocery list is set out with showing what is needed for what and when. If you don’t have the budget for Premium or Premium+, the free version...
