Lots of useful stuff buried under other stuff
There are lots of useful things in this app, but most of the time they’re overwhelmed by how chatty the app wants to be. If you can dig under that then you can find some gems. However, if you use a Withings scale, be prepared to suffer. It will make you re-authorize with Withings every time you run the app just to get your daily weigh in. When the entire purpose of a connected scale is to avoid pain points like this, then you have to evaluate whether the pain is worth dealing with this. Regardless, that alone costs this app a full star on my review.

Just met my weight loss goal
I've struggled with my weight for decades. I am a binge eater. I have tried countless programs. Even over eaters anonymous. Today I finally met my goal. This app is so encouraging, especially when you've worked hard yet there's a fluctuation. I can't recommend it highly enough. Thanks Andrew!!!

Thank you for your wonderful review and I’m so happy to hear that Luuze is working for you! - Andrew
Logical and so helpful
Luuze is tha best weight tracker and motivational tool I have used - and I have tried My Fitness Pal, Lose It, Weight Watchers, Happy Scale, and maybe others! I know that regular weighing helps me stick to my goals. Luuze has a really great trend weight system and immediate interpretive and coaching methods and keeps me going on the downhill or maintenance curve! Highly recommend.

Huge weight loss success
I saw the creator of this app talk about it on CBC during a New Years resolution themed segment. Figured I’d give it a try…and I’ve never looked back. I’ve lost nearly 20 lbs in less than a year (including taking a 4 month break in the summer) and still going! All I do is eat better and go for walks (no gym).
It’s simple to make better dietary choices when you see how your weight is impacted each day. Be consistent with weigh-ins (even on days that you know will be bad) to have the best success. By accounting for fluctuations and showing what your trend weight is, the app helps to keep you from getting discouraged.
There is no tricks to this app - it simply helps you keep on track and make better choices for yourself. I find it very motivating to see the weight loss on a graph. I could not possible recommend this app more!!!

Congratulations on your success! Appreciate you taking the time to write this review, makes me happy to hear Luuze is working for you!
Not for me
I wanted to love the app but I don’t. Seems expensive for what you get and I couldn’t figure out how to use it without buying. The graph is fine but that’s really all there is because I turned off the “encouragements” as I found them annoying not helpful. I could just as easily track my weight in a spreadsheet for free.

Sorry to hear that Luuze isn’t for you, but I appreciate your honest feedback, so thank you. If you’re willing to email me at andrew@luuze.com and give me any further feedback on how to improve the messaging or to help me better understand the challenges behind not being able use it for free (it can be used for free), please do so as I’d love to ensure people don’t encounter the same challenges you did.
Great app
I find this app is simple to use and gives me the encouragement I need. Andrew’s help to an input issue I was having was very quick and solved my problem. Great support!

A privilege to help! Thank you for the kind words!
Slow and steady
I have dieted since I was early teens. I often would lose weight after fighting like crazy to lose anything. I would always do everything exactly as told. I’d lose, then gain it all back often a little more. I saw Andrew on the news and thought this could work. I decided to lose 100 lbs in two years. A pound a week. It’s s still difficult, but when I’m done I can keep the same eating patterns for life. I’m only changing a little thing at a time so it’s doable. I still eat some of my favourite things and lose. I appreciate the app on my IPad to encourage me or help me through slow times. Also I’ve had to reach out to Andrew a few times with questions and he answers. I’m down 20 and 80 more to go. I definitely recommend this.

WOW 20 pounds!! I’m so happy to hear Luuze is working for you and thank you for your wonderful review! - Andrew
Game changer
This app has really changed the way I view my weight loss goals. It feels fun and like a game to weigh myself daily and see my weight trend fall and makes me more aware during the day of portion control and eating when I’m bored. It’s gives you messages of encouragement to help you understand weight fluctuations so you aren’t discouraged by them. Overall really happy I found this app.

Limited Free Measurements
Update, March 16: I am extremely happy with the developer response to this problem. Thank you, Andrew!
I have been using the app for a little over two months with an iPhone 7. I like the app very much, but now there is a pop-up ad for upgrading that won’t go away. The options to “continue using Luuze without Plus features” and the “X” for closing the ad are outside my phone’s screen area. When I try to swipe the ad away, it just comes back.

Luuze is Changing my Life... Really!
About a month ago I had the good fortune of seeing Andrew in a television interview discussing his weight loss app Luuze describing how it was different from all the other weight loss apps I’ve tried.
I have always known that ONLY I can control my weight, and thought WOW! If Andrew can lose that much weight there’s no reason why I can’t lose a lousy 20LBS!
I’ve made some changes to the way I eat ( knowing I have Luuze letting me know when I get off track) and having the daily numbers guide me, I’m definitely on the right track and have to say losing the weight has been easy and the best thing is I have not counted one calorie!
I’m now over 20% complete on my journey and I see my goal well within reach!
Thanks Andrew.. you’re changing my life...one Trend weight at a time!
