Leave a Review Calorie Deficit Calculator
Decent
Decent app to track calories and set goals. Needs refining, the recipe builder doesn’t allow you to set portions. So if you build a carnivore bread it only allows you to select the whole thing or fractionally when you add it to your meal plan not by gram, oz, or anything else like when scanning a barcode.
Has a robust library of foods to choose from, and it even appears to be other user input ones as well, but many common things are missing like high protein yogurt from friendly farms to name one. The “Ai” is a pretty good catch all but also gets the data wrong and when added to a meal it doesn’t let your select the unit of measure like mentioned before.
Adding other diet plans would be nice too! Carnivore diet could be an option and while it’s pretty basic (meat, protein, fats) there are quite a few recipes that can be used to help out newer people.
It’s a good platform but could easily be a top rated contender if they came in cleaned up some stuff.Show lessAce_MF
I wanted to like it
This app has the potential to be so much better than it is. I have used other food tracking apps and this is definitely not as easy as they were. I like that it’s simpler, but it could be made better as far as adding foods and adding the same foods you eat often. I shouldn’t have to find the food, hit add and then hit add again to make it show up for the day. Also when removing you have to hit remove then save it at the end. Unnecessary. I should babble just to remove from the main screen. If you are using the app on more than one device it takes a long time to update to the second device. Also unnecessary. Someone who actually uses the device needs to help with changes.Show lessI am the real Lacey

Hi Lacey, thanks for your feedback. We have released an update today that allows you to "Click Once" instead of "Twice" to add food. Hopefully this makes the food tracking process a lot easier now :)HELP! App Is Broken for Me
I’ll update to 5 stars if we can get this fixed. I’ve been using the app for a little while and I have been loving it, but as other users expressed, my app suddenly broke and I cannot log anything as far as meals, water, etc. I don’t want to delete and redownload the app as other users reported losing their entire account by doing so.

Hi adamari, thank you for your support and congrats on your progress! If you have any questions, feel free to reach us at info@oatsyapp.comNot User Friendly, features??
A few things here…I chose this because my previous app had too many features. I want to count calories and restrict my diet. I like to go on a very strict diet for the first few weeks. I do very well on 1100 calories, and even 900 when I’m doing some fasting. This app doesn’t allow me to restrict my calories at all below 1200. I understand that it’s trying to keep me from being unhealthy, but it’s MY call. I don’t need a caloric big brother/babysitter.
Furthermore, I could not find a way to do anything. I couldn’t figure out how to use the non premium version? I expect ads for the premium version but it wouldn’t let me do anything, at all, except take me to websites.
Overall: no thanks! I’ll go back to my previous one that had too many features.Show lessCandy29292929

Hi Candy, we understand you want to reach your goals fast but it's also important to do so at a healthy and sustainable pace. The calorie limit is suggested by FDA so it may be a good baseline for your goals too. Oatsy provides all food logging functionality and nutrition information for free. Premium subscription are for advanced features only such as Nutritionist Meal Plans. If you have any questions, feel free to reach us at info@oatsyapp.comGreat app until it just failed on me
I have been using this app for almost 2 weeks now and it has been great. The tracking is so helpful and they give great nutrition tips. Today I tried adding a snack to my tracking and it wouldn’t load or let me add. I kept resetting my phone and then I finally deleted the app and downloaded it again. I tried ti get back in and all my data was gone and it was a completely new account even though I used the same email. I tried logging in and out and it would just show me a loading screen and never fully log in. I’m so mad all my data is gone and all my meals from the past weeks is deleted. I loved this app and it’s features were so good compared to others but it completely disappointed me.Show lesssofia.dm13
Great design needs servings selector
Love the design, I currently use another app for calorie counting, and was considering switching. One idea to really improve the food logger would be to add a servings selector so that you can do it by weight, grams, ounces, etc.. and maybe by quantity like 1 piece or 2 pieces. Just a suggestion. If you can already do this in app then it’s not very intuitive. Anyways I’ll keep using for now.Show lessabernathyjones
Wonderful features for free version. Please fix the macros
As the last reviewer mentioned, I noticed the macro counter is pretty off. Please fix this! Other than that, out of like 12 other apps on the AppStore, this is the only one that allows me to track a list of macros along with my water, and calories, and also connects with health to track daily steps. Many other apps do these things, but none of them do all at once like Oatsy does. The rest have one feature or another locked behind the paywall. Please fix the macro counter though.Show lessHalosycofancrazyawesome!!

Doesn’t find any bar codes I’ve tried so farJackie Clayton
Awful.
After you press on + to add your food the button “ADD” located so high up in right corner that it takes some serious skills to hit it! If you looking at your phone and wonder : see signal bars and battery charge logos on your phone? This application’s button will be covering those.
I deleted app after I struggled to add items for lunch.
“Ain’t no body got time” for pressing ADD multiple times.Show lessAlencha23
