Really odd interface
I could live with entering my own food. For $4.99, though, I expect a more user-friendly interface. For example, I can see no way to edit a day’s food diary once a food is entered. If I entered a food in error, I expect to be able to delete it.
And, if there’s a way to copy a day’s entry to another day, I can’t find it.
If an app is difficult to use, I won’t use it at all, let alone a few times a day day to track foodShow lessCEJohnson
Good app but takes getting used to
The interface is kinda weird and it took a while for me to learn to navigate it. But it’s not filled with ads and doesn’t pressure me into a subscription. It’s a great alternative to My Fitness Pal.
Regarding users saying there aren’t a lot of food options. I would go ahead and make custom food entries for things you eat often. That way it functions virtually the same as other apps where the food is saved and you can add when you want. Once you get used to doing that it’s a wonderfully simple app.Show lessgennick2
It’s kinda good
It’s kind of hard to use this app because u have to measure out all your food. I didn’t like it very much. It’s very had to keep track of.mckenzie ally
Good but…
I’ve been using this app for a few days already and it doesn’t seem so bad though, it would be better improved if there was more access on the free one. I can’t really do much and it doesn’t really make much sense to me how to really use it. I can’t either see what I have added in for each day. So annoying!
Though if you have the money then its probably worthwhile.Show lessdont kill me gor this

Dear User, all the needed features for calorie counting and weight loss such as food search, food creation, macronutrients setup, exercise additions and all statistics are included in our free version so that there is no pressure to purchase the pro version. If you have a specific feature request feel free to contact me from inside the app under settings > contact. Best Regards MarioPoor UI design; no barcode scanning of foods
There seem to be three options in calorie counting apps:
Subscriptions. No. Just NO!!
Expensive in-app purchase for “lifetime” full features
Free app with bad design
This one is in category 3. The UI is nonstandard UI elements (inconsistent to iOS API elements, weird behaviors, etc; typical of lone developer trying to reinvent the GUI wheel for their free, cross-platform hobby app), thin/small lines/text, low contrast (though you can change the background, you can’t change the rest), and just generally utterly alien to iOS.
Also, this app requires users to enter their own foods OR have wildly inaccurate calorie estimates. There’s no barcode scanning for prepackaged foods on the market.
If the UI were excellent, I’d be willing to enter my own foods, but the UI is NOT excellent. I’m not going to waste my time.Show lessdysamoria

Hello I just got the app and so far I like it but there are some foods that are not listed that I eat like sliced turkey or the type of cheese I ate.dilly221
You can make it work, but it’s not seamless
Limited foods pre-programmed. Hard to search for a specific food. Somehow I got the units stuck on oz, so when I add a new food, I have to calculate the nutrition info into oz even though the label is in g. If there is a way to switch this in settings, it’s unclear. The units on progress charts are not consistent. For example, if you typically eat 1500 calories, and eat 1800 calories the next day, the graph will look like the 1800 calorie day was double the 1500 (even though it’s clearly not).Show lessemnutkinz
Not good for entering your own foods
No scanning for quick entry. When manually entering it forces YOU to do all the math because it only accepts entries per 100g. It should have you enter the info as it appears on the label and enter the serving size. As it is it’s too time consuming/annoying to use if you use anything other than the suggested foods.Show lesswezliATL
Difficult to use
This software is difficult to use from the start. I tried the free (and doubted it) and hoped the PRO would be better. It’s not. Getting around to do various things might come in time, but it is not intuitive. Creating a good is forced to be at 100, so if you are adding, let’s say cereal, and the box shows that it is based on a 59g serving, you have to recalculate everything to 100g, then when you add it to your day, you have to enter 59g to get it to work out correctly. You can’t enter the number of servings either (because it forces you to drop a serving size).
Editing a food is hit or miss. If you try to change something, there is no SAVE button, only another EDIT button, and that may or may not save the changes.
Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere.Show lessLittle Runt

Dear User, creating a new food must be based on 100g values (and the equivalent in the imperial system in the app) since food package labels all base their calorie and macro values on 100g as well. Editing food works perfectly as well on all our testing devices as well as with our users.please make sure you click the green save button at the bottom right side of the edit dialog since missing it by clicking outside will just close the dialogue. If you need furthering assistance, please contact me through the settings page. Best regards
