  • Disappointed

    I got this app because I had heard that it was free to use. However once I started putting in all the information it tried making me highlight whether I wanted to exercise, lose weight, have better nutrition, or whatever else. Then at the very end it was insisting that I sign up for a 14 day trial. I only downloaded this app because it supposedly had the option to be able to take pictures of food and track your calories. But once I got to a point where it’s trying to sign me up for cognitive behavioral therapy, getting a human nutritionist, losing weight, and everything else it really defeated the point of what I wanted this app for.

  • Can’t contact them/ Disappointed

    I opted for the premium edition in hopes that the fasting diet plan would actually have something that prompts you or reminds you
    Of what to do when, but it is just advisory articles to read. I clicked on contact to cancel and the contact doesn’t work. Takes
    You nowhere yet all of the others you can click work just fine. Very disappointed as you really don’t need the premium version of this app at all, very over priced and should allow the option to cancel.
    Tried to share a 1-2 star but the app won’t allow it. Keeps telling me the nickname I’ve chosen is taken and to pick another. They’ve found work arounds for people to complain or give issues

  • Fun And User Friendly (Im A Harsh Critic Too)

    Im new to weight loss apps however being in need of help right now. I desperately started to look for an app that would help me . I tried over 30 different apps and they all were too complicated and confusing to use. I like this app because its fun and easy to understand and use. Yes it comes at a price but so far on my 7 day trial I am very impythst so much love and work was poured into this app to help people like me! A big fat thank you to the developers!

  • be more inclusive

    I love this app in general!! I think there is some room for improvement but I’ll be here for the updates. However, at the very beginning it asks for male or female, please consider changing this to include non-binary, prefer not to say or other. It’s 2021, make people feel comfortable, especially when it comes to bettering themselves!

  • Waste of money

    If you are looking for ease of use and ACCURACY this is not the app for you. Users can input info on food which can be incorrect. It does not recognize many barcodes. It also uses the metric system which is not terrible unless you want record a very small amount, ex: ¼ tsp of maple syrup is 1.23 ml but the smallest amount the app will let you use is 15ml. Getting a refund for premium is difficult even if you have had it for a couple of days. At the very least use the 7 day trial before committing.

  • Just ok

    I’m used to using the WW app, and had tried the MyFitnessPal app which didn’t seem robust enough for me, so I attempted Foodvisor. I’m not a huge fan, mostly because it’s not super easy to look up specific foods. I get a lot of suggestions nowhere close to what I’m trying to track. The picture of food sounds cool but it’s not very accurate. The smiling/frowning face concerns me because I get a mad face for things I consider totally fine and healthy in moderation (like a teaspoon of honey... not quite the diet killer). Overall, I’d wouldn’t suggest the app to anyone. For $60 a year, it needs some work. Not worth the money.

  • Poor app

    I was intrigued by this app due to the fact you can take pictures of your plate and the AI/algorithm would determine what you were eating and calculate your nutritional data and make tracking much easier. I found that the picture recognition to be very unreliable and almost always requires modification. Also, there is a poor database of foods. At least 50% of barcodes are unrecognized. Generally it is a pain to use. My Fitness Pal has many more features and is much easier to use. I am switching back.

  • Great but could be much better

    Been using for 3weeks. I am on a moderate diet and this app works well for my purpose. Though, as others commented, for serious calorie counters the database may be small and inaccurate too often. I want to suggest making “per portion” selected as default instead of “per 100g” when entering nutritional data to new items. My guess is that when someone enters nutritional data on a new item, they fill in nutritional values just like it shows on the label while choosing “per 100g” instead of “per portion” which is what the nutritional facts on those labels are... which throws the calculations off. So if “per portion” is selected as default, it may solve many of the confusing annoying mistakes on the database.

  • Really poor and limited

    I paid for the premium version, and was v disappointed in it.
    * It doesn't seem to the possible to adjust the calorie distribution between meals and snacks, mine is giving me big allowances for meals and tiny ones for snacks, and that's not how I want to eat
    * The search food database is hopeless. It doesn't seem to have any intelligent settings at all.
    * The plan I'm following doesn't give me a meal plan, it just has some general advice
    * There's no way to save your favourite recipes if you manage to find one in the recipes section.
    * The advice around food is really really bad. Like yesterday it told me that a fruit and nut mix (no added sugar etc) was the worst thing I'd eaten, and that butter was good.
    * The 'sport mode' won't turn on, ie there's a button there, I flip it to on, it flips right back to off.

  • Interesting idea but poor execution

    I read a review of this product online and thought it would be cool to try. The idea sounds great but the developers have failed into a poor product not ready for prime time.
    Issues:
    -user interface is cluttered and confusing. There is so much information, icons and other things that it’s quite bad actually.
    -the search capabilities are very poor. I think you need to improve your algorithm. Takes forever to find something close to what I need and sometimes it shows up pages below
    -the image recognition is so-so. Needs to improve.
    - I am interested in a different protein target. Why should I pay for something as simple as that? I’m not asking for a diet or another service.

    In summary, developers: you have a lot of work to do.
